Lovely period property for renovation located in a small hamlet close to the town of Penela, Coimbra. The property was formerly part of a larger estate dating back to the 16th century. The original manor house had its own coat of arms, which can still be seen sited in the old arched entrance to what was the courtyard of the manor. The layout of the property can be seen in the Google earth plan. The house has approximately 300m2 of usable floor space and is sited on a plot of 1565m2.Ground floor:The main door to the property is opposite the old well which has vines that offer shade in summer months. This door opens onto a large room that has the original oak ceiling beams and wattle constructed walls. The floor of this room has been prepared to accept a reinforced concrete floor and later support pillars. There are further doors from here that lead to the old courtyard that has a pig sty and double gates for access. You can also access the small attached cottage with its stone walls that has no roof at the moment. Back inside the house, there is a large room with a stairwell opening for stairs to the first floor. The old stairs have been removed and need to be replaced with new stairs and balustrade. To the rear is a doorway opening onto the old kitchen that has the original fireplace supported by a huge, arched, oak lintel. The old chain is still in situ from where the cooking cauldrons would hang. The fireplace also has a bread oven that was also used to cook meats. There is an adjoining room to the kitchen with hardwood doors that open onto the gardens at the rear.First floor:A large landing area has 3 doors that lead to the rear double bedroom, front double bedroom with access door to the attic and large lounge area with inset wall cupboard and oak floor. Double doors from the lounge open onto the 3rd bedroom, which overlooks the courtyard. Some of the windows on the first floor have been replaced in aluminium frames over the years.Exterior: The land with the property gently slopes away from the house and has some olive, orange and fig trees at the lower end. The old well is opposite the front door of the property and has water for most of the year. The more modern barn is sited by the country lane that passes the property. The barn has lockable metal doors and makes a good storage unit. The prop.
