For those of you looking for your own piece of Portuguese paradise, this property is situated within walking distance of the village but still feels private and secluded. The property is accessed from a forest track. A beautiful stone ruin of almost 95 sqm sits on an urban plot of 359 sqm. It is sited in a commanding position overlooking flat land that boasts some wonderful mature native trees and has views out toward the river. There is a well on this area of the land which also feeds a water tank. This part of the property could be used for agriculture or for creating a garden and could be easily accessed from the house. The house itself sits on a terrace with a stone wall and from here the land slopes up almost to the tarmac road above. This area is planted with young trees which will mature into a pine forest. The welcoming village of Cortes has several cafes, a minimarket, shops, and a pharmacy. Mains electricity is sited at the edge of the property.
