Most of the land is fertile and gently sloping with a large flat area in the valley where a seasonal stream runs. It is perfect for anyone looking for a small-holding. The valley is ideal for growing vegetables or keeping horses. There’s a multitude of different fruit trees in this area, including peach, apple, plum, pear, cherry, avocado, mulberry, almond, fig and loquat. There are 2 wells supplying water for irrigation (plus there’s mains water and electricity to this area of the land as well). There’s an old pig sty and 2 small pig paddocks, plus an old 4m x 4m bunker for storage  and a flat area if you need somewhere to park a caravan or to erect stables. A small stream runs through the valley in the winter time. The land then rises steeply up the hillside and is an untouched wilderness covered with ancient cork oak trees. There’s a paved area under the shade of one of the cork oaks, the perfect spot for a picnic table and chairs or for meditation. On the opposite side of the track, the extra piece of land comes with it’s own well. Closer to the house, to the rear of the BBQ area, a number of pine trees have been planted which will provide welcome shade once fully grown.The property benefits from a large gravel parking area and palms line the entrance track. A canvas awning provides shaded parking for 2 cars and a tractor, plus there’s a small store room for bicycles. The main road is one kilometre away along a dirt track. The house is on mains water and electric. The garden has automatic irrigation (the water can come from either the well or the mains). The house is connected to 2 septic tank systems with multiple chambers (self cleaning). There is also a large log store behind the house to store 2 - 3 tonne of wood.This property is perfect for anyone wanting to lead the good-life, surrounded by nature, but by no means isolated. It’s only 1.5 km to Budens (where you will find a large supermarket, cafés and restaurants) and within 4 - 5 km you have the beaches of Burgau, Cabanas, Boca do Rio and Salema.
