Family home beautifully renovated, with a spacious terrace, double garage and countryside location near Penela Originally composed of two traditional stone houses, this property was completely transformed by the current owners through a renovation project approved by the Municipal Council. The renovation created a spacious and practical family home, respecting the property's origins and adapting it comfortably to contemporary living. Every aspect of the transformation was carefully considered, resulting in a bright and welcoming home that offers generous living spaces, excellent entertaining areas and all the comforts expected today. The ground floor was carefully designed with comfortable daily living in mind. The spacious master bedroom benefits from an ensuite bathroom, creating a peaceful retreat, while the other two double bedrooms provide excellent accommodation for family and guests. One of the guest bedrooms has its own private terrace, the perfect spot for breakfast, while the second offers direct access to the garden. Also on this floor is a spacious family bathroom, equipped with separate bathtub and shower. With external access, there is a pantry and a highly practical laundry room, which currently houses the heating system and laundry facilities. The current owners also use this space as a home office, making it ideal for remote work, hobbies or additional storage. A wide staircase leads to the heart of the home on the first floor, where an open-plan living area is located. The contemporary kitchen, with a central island, flows naturally into the dining area and comfortable living room, creating a bright and welcoming space, perfect for both everyday living and entertaining guests. Large double doors open onto an impressive terrace that extends along the property's facade. With ample space for outdoor dining, relaxing or entertaining family and friends, this exceptional space truly extends the living area outdoors and makes the most of the peaceful surroundings. One of the most delightful surprises of the home is hidden behind what appears to be a cupboard door in the kitchen. Simply pass through it to discover a secret pantry, designed as a practical workspace where appliances, kitchen utensils and everyday essentials can be stored discreetly when entertaining guests. Also on this floor is a modern bathroom with shower and access to a small balcony with steps leading directly to the garden. Outside, the property is surrounded by a fully enclosed garden, a safe space for both children and pets. This is the ideal location for a swimming pool, should permission be granted by the authorities. In front of the house is a double garage, which will soon receive a new roof. Whether used as secure parking, workshop or studio, it offers excellent flexibility and, subject to necessary permissions, could even provide potential for additional accommodation. The garage is situated on land that is also included in the property. Currently maintained by a local farmer for hay production, it offers wonderful potential for those wishing to create a vegetable garden, orchard or small farm, while keeping the main gardens in excellent condition. Comfort has been carefully considered throughout the home. A pellet stove provides efficient heating to the main living area, while air conditioning units with heating and cooling functions are installed in the master bedroom, one guest bedroom and the kitchen and open-plan living area. The property is also fully prepared for central heating, with all pipework already installed should a future owner wish to install a complete system, although the current owners have found the existing heating more than sufficient. Located a short drive from the historic market town of Penela, the property enjoys the perfect balance between peaceful countryside living and everyday conveniences. Penela has supermarkets, cafés, restaurants, schools, healthcare services, banks and a variety of local shops, and will soon be connected to the metro network, while the nearby towns of Miranda do Corvo and Condeixa-a-Nova offer an even wider selection of amenities. Excellent road connections place Coimbra within reach of shops, hospitals and cultural attractions, while the A13 motorway offers convenient access north and south. Both Porto International Airport and Lisbon Airport are approximately 1 hour 30 minutes away, making the property easily accessible for both permanent residence and those who travel regularly. This is a home that offers far more than generous space. It is located in an area with a real sense of community and is a short walk from a popular restaurant. This is a property designed for living, entertaining guests and enjoying the relaxed Portuguese lifestyle, combining careful design, quality renovation and a peaceful location in an exceptional opportunity.
