Character-filled Country Home Needing Renovation Near Ferreira Do Zêzere, Central Portugal

This property, while generously sized and situated in a desirable location, is currently in a poor state and requires extensive renovation to become a lovely family home. It is within walking distance to cafés, restaurants, and mini markets, and just a short 10-minute drive to Ferreira do Zêzere and 15 minutes to Tomar.
Positioned proudly on its plot, the property is set back from the country road and elevated, offering pleasant countryside views. The home lacks a kitchen and bathroom, which will need to be installed. Given the property's condition, the layout and use of the rooms will likely need to be reconfigured.
The property has previously had water and electricity connections, which is a significant advantage. The roof is in relatively good condition and will only require minor repairs rather than a full replacement. However, new plumbing and electrical systems will need to be installed.
The basement, once used for animal storage, presents a great opportunity to be transformed into a large, open-plan kitchen diner or family room, with potential for patio doors opening onto the back land. A spacious patio area with a summer kitchen and barbecue could be added to make the most of the long summer evenings.
The land surrounding the property is mostly flat and easy to maintain, featuring some fruit and olive trees, with ample space for additional planting.
Although the property requires substantial work, it has significant potential. It could be a great investment opportunity for those looking to renovate and resell or for anyone starting in the rental market in this sought-after area.
The nearest village, Areias, is within walking distance and offers essential amenities including a post office, ATM, cafés, restaurants, and mini markets. Ferreira do Zêzere, a larger village, is about 10 minutes away, providing further amenities. Tomar, a bustling market town, is approximately 20 minutes away and features a wide range of services, including supermarkets, cafés, restaurants, banks, and more.
The property is about 50 minutes from the Silver Coast beach resorts and 2 hours from Serra da Estrela, Portugal's highest mountain range and ski area. Lisbon Airport is approximately one hour by car.
