3 storey schist house situated in a beautiful location on the edge of a village, within a beautiful garden and with superb views, yet still within walking distance of the town centre. This is a great family home, but it would also be an excellent opportunity for a business. GROUND FLOOR: comprises a kitchen, lounge, dining room, a room with a rustic oven, a large internal garage and entrance hall with stairs leading to the 1st floor. The entrance is through a slate patio with a spacious area to eat and receive your guests, with a kitchen with a gas stove, electric oven and a floating island with a second sink and a panoramic window that will offer you magnificent views of the surrounding fields that you can enjoy while you prepare a meal. Passing the kitchen, there is a living room of generous space, cozy in winter and cool in summer, with a door leading to the dining room or the office. A hallway from the kitchen leads you to the rustic oven room, which can be converted into whatever you consider most useful – the current owners wanted to convert it into a bathroom while keeping the oven in its traditional form. You can follow this idea, since there is plumbing done and a bathroom set purchased and available for this purpose. 1st FLOOR: consists of 7 bedrooms, 6 of which are doubles, and the 7th is the master bedroom with a wood burning stove. There are 2 bathrooms, plus a lounge and a small laundry room. From the lounge on this floor, you can access a large terrace with an annex and a second terrace located at the back of the house. 2nd FLOOR: has a large open space with the same ceiling height as the rest of the property with access to a 3rd terrace. In this area you can build more rooms, and the current owners would use it to create a large space for the family with a games room. DOUBLE GLAZING: Double-glazed windows and doors have been installed throughout the house, which mimic the original wooden design of these structures. HEATING AND WATER: in the ground floor lounge there is a pellet heater, (only 6 months old), as well as a boiler (approximately 1 year old); a stove on the 1st floor, radiators installed both on the ground floor and in the areas on the 1st floor, – for central heating it is necessary to install a boiler and its piping, which can be purchased at Leroy Merlin or an equivalent store. SEPTIC TANK: about 4 years ago a new septic tank suitable for a family of 10 people was installed. GARDEN AND OUTDOOR AREAS: a private garden with flower beds and shrubs created with schist and gravel stones, with slate paths, 4 olive trees, 1 lemon tree and 1 orange tree; several areas with benches to enjoy the views and tranquility of the garden and the surrounding area, 3 terraces and a large covered patio that will lead you to another rest area further on. SWIMMING POOL: installed in the garden there is an oval pool measuring 6.1 meters by 3.75 meters. STRUCTURE FOR RENOVATION: a small schist construction located next to the main house with access independent of both the road and the patio and perfect for more accommodation or rental, being able to create a 1 or 2 bedroom apartment here. ADDITIONAL LAND: adjacent to the road and approximately 20 meters from the house, with an adult pear tree, 2 olive trees, 2 young peach trees and 1 almond tree, there is a plot, where you will also find a covered parking area with more or less 40 m2 where you can easily park 3 cars. VILLAGE LIFE: Café da Élia, a mere 3 minutes from the property, is a friendly space, run by a family, with a shop belonging to the same building, which is the heart of the village and an incredible space to meet your neighbors and feel part of the village! There is also a butcher, a van with bread that passes by here every day, and once a week there is also a van with fish, fruits, vegetables and ice. Annually there is a 4-day party in August and a community dinner in January. Located just 3 Km, in the following village, there is a small supermarket and the café "Fora D'Horas", with river beach and restaurant, also a family run business, open all year round that serves very good food, and 19 Km away has a small village with all kinds of usual services. RIVER BEACHES AND ACTIVITIES: There are 4 spectacular river beaches for swimming, about 5 and 12 minutes drive from home, all with a café open during the main summer months with the exception of Alvares, 3 Km away, where the café and restaurant are open all year round. Pessegueiro and Roda Cimeira are 6 km away and Vilar da Amoreira is 12 km away, which is located on the Zêzere River. The village is surrounded by countryside and where you will find several hiking trails for adventurers and cyclists. It is a little next to the National Road 2, the " Route 66 " of Portugal, so if you are a biker or cyclist, you will love the twists and turns of these roads that start in Góis. Fishing and kayaking is also possible through the various branches of the Zêzere, where you can also enjoy small boat cruises. This project is only 95% complete, but it offers the opportunity to put your stamp here, whether in the furnace room, on the third floor or in the renovation of the small schist house. Recently valued at €220,000 in its current condition, the owners are selling it due to health reasons and have put the reasonable and realistic price of €199,950. At this price, most of the furniture and contents are included! Come visit!
