Casa das videiras – PD0487
Property in central Portugal
Casa das Videiras – PD0487
The house of the vines can be considered a farm, with its flat and spacious land, a water mine, olive trees and centuries-old vines as well as a huge fig tree.
The stone construction in the traditional way with Arabic influences, the noble woods of the house were preserved, whether doors with reinforced hardware, exteriors and shutters, the house and the painted windows reflect the good taste and esteem for it over time.
One of the ex-libris of this house is its interior courtyard, with its floor in Portuguese cobblestone, and it reminds us of the movie,” the courtyard of songs”, a Lisbon courtyard, as we see in historic neighborhoods such as Mouraria, Alfama, andother traditional neighborhoods.
The animal drinking troughs carved into stone are still preserved, as well as their manger inside what is now a wine cellar.
In this space, we can see the well-treated wood on the ceiling and their fitting system, demonstrating the quality and ingenuity in its construction. On the ground floor, in this interior courtyard, we have three more rooms in addition to the cellar, to house the central heating equipment, tools and other useful utensils on the property. Outside, 3 patios were created, one of which was covered, housing a wooden swing, another with a wooden table and terrace chairs, close to the upper pool platform, a pool that was removed, and a third among the centuries-old vines that continue in cordon along the pedestrian access paths through the garden.
In the outdoor space there are three more rooms at ground level, also for household appliances, laundry, workshop and garden equipment.
Going up to the first floor, there is a porch at the entrance to the door to the family area of the house, a wooden door with stone jambs, and on the floor, beautiful old tiles to welcome guests.
The balcony fenced with diamond-shaped wood leads us to the guest area, with four bedrooms and independent bathrooms, with a play of bright and light colors, such as white, blue, brown and yellow.
The family area is made up of a huge corridor, which connects to all 6 rooms on both sides. The kitchen is spacious and practical, with a pantry, equipped with a stove, countertop with dishwasher with fantastic views to the garden, and with an arched passage directly to the dining room, with a huge solid wood table, a traditional fireplace made of magenta colored brick.
On this same side, there is also a huge bedroom, a bathroom and another smaller bedroom at the back with two single beds.
The imposing living room, built one level above the hallway and other rooms, has two entrance doors with flights of wooden stairs, and the lounge has a fireplace and seating area.
We can go to the garden through the kitchen, with a terrace and stairs to go down, with stunning views to the river below, not far from the edge of the land. The garden is pleasant and you can enjoy and relax in an armchair, a hammock, in the shade of the old vines, which form a beautiful passageway along the flat green that can be seen.
There is also a huge garage, with space for three vehicles, with a large exit gate. The property has versatile characteristics; it could be a large family home, tourist accommodation, a school, or an association as examples.
