Description
A rare, large-scale property in the heart of one of the most sought-after regions in southern Portugal
We present this extraordinary estate comprising 52.45 hectares of contiguous land, located in the municipality of Santiago do Cacém, on the Alentejo coast, formed by the combination of three adjacent parcels, which must be sold as a single lot.
This is a property of exceptional scale in an area where demand for large rural estates—offering tourism potential and self-sufficiency—has been growing steadily, benefiting from its proximity to the Atlantic coast, Melides, Santo André, and the Comporta area.
Geographical and Landscape Context
The estate is situated in an area with a strong Alentejo identity, characterized by a continuous landscape of cork oak and holm oak forests, gentle hills, and natural valleys, offering high privacy and free from urban development pressure.
The land features a diverse and balanced composition:
Cork oak and holm oak forests with established productive areas
Carrasco scrub and native Mediterranean vegetation
Traditional olive grove integrated into the landscape
Open areas with agricultural and scenic potential
Gentle terrain with sweeping, unobstructed views of the natural surroundings
High privacy and low building density in the surrounding area
The size and continuity of the land create a unique sense of a large estate, difficult to replicate in the region.
Natural and Water Resources
The property benefits from a rare combination of natural resources that enhance its self-sufficiency and intrinsic value:
Private well
Water extraction borehole
Natural spring emerging from rock
Seasonal watercourse active between fall and spring
Land suitable for agricultural, forestry, and tourism use
These elements provide the estate with a solid foundation for self-sufficient and sustainable projects.
Existing Buildings and Infrastructure
The property already includes built and functional structures, allowing for immediate use and support for future projects:
Traditional Alentejo house registered as an urban property
Fully equipped 37 m² mobile home
Wooden deck measuring approximately 100 m²
Utility area for water and electricity
Internal access roads and established operational areas
Energy Self-Sufficiency and Sustainability
The estate features solutions that enhance its functional independence:
Solar energy production system
Partial off-grid infrastructure
Capacity for autonomous water and energy management
Potential for expansion of sustainable systems
Urban planning and development potential
Based on the 2023 PIP, adapted to the current fire risk classification, the property allows for a highly flexible urban planning framework:
Single-family residence up to 500 m² + 50 m² swimming pool
Agricultural outbuildings up to 3,530 m²
Rural tourism projects up to 4,000 m²
Possibility of a rural hotel up to 6,000 m²
This framework opens the door to various investment strategies, ranging from a luxury private estate to a large-scale tourism development or a structured agricultural operation.
Location
The property is strategically located on the Alentejo coast:
About 10 minutes from Santiago do Cacém
Approximately 30 minutes from the beaches of Melides and São Torpes
About 1 hour and 30 minutes from Lisbon
It combines seclusion, nature, and privacy with easy access to some of the most sought-after destinations along the Portuguese coast.
An Estate of Legacy
More than just a real estate asset, this property represents an opportunity to build a legacy.
The combination of scale, natural resources, existing structures, and development potential makes this estate a rare asset in today’s Portuguese market.
A space where it is possible to integrate nature, architecture, and a long-term vision into a single, cohesive project—one with scale, privacy, and its own distinct identity.
