Espinhal, Coimbra 3230

Magnificent 3-bedroom villa with a backyard.Our journey to this villa begins in the beautiful village of Espinhal where the cobbled streets, the beautiful parish church, the friendliness of the people and the pleasant smell of freshly baked bread immediately create a sense of well-being!We leave this village and start climbing the mountain, about 10 minutes, glimpsing the magnificent landscape, pure nature, water flowing from rocks and a beautiful variety of trees and wild flowers.On the way up, we see signs for viewpoints, trails, a river, a waterfall, a river beach, a preventive medicine clinic... And we've arrived. A beautiful stone house awaits us, completely renovated and comprising a ground floor, basement and backyard.Still outside, right in front of the house, we are surprised by the magnificent running water fountain with a huge tank where, in ancient times, the ladies used to gather to wash the family's clothes and fill up with water to drink. Even today, many people go to this fountain to take water home to drink. It's pure water with a great flavour.We entered the house to a large lounge with beautiful stone walls, a very ornate fireplace and two windows with magnificent views of the mountains!On the right-hand side is a large en suite bedroom with a built-in wardrobe and large windows that let in natural light and give us fantastic views! The bathroom is complete with a window and a very good interior area.Back in the living room and now on the left, we go down 4 steps and find ourselves in a beautiful fitted kitchen with a window and direct door to the outside. Again in the living room and to the left, there is a second access to the basement.We go down the beautiful staircase and on the right we have a large full bathroom and two spacious bedrooms. In this part of the house, there is also a laundry room and a large room with windows and direct access to the magnificent garden/yard.This room could be the office you've always dreamed of!We went out to the backyard: flat lawn, with enough area to make a swimming pool, because the most important thing in this house is a bonus - the water! Directly from the outside spring, which we talked about at the beginning of this description, you can irrigate the backyard or fill a swimming pool. Natural, healthy and free water!And the views from this backyard! Exceptional!It should be noted that the house is equipped with pellet central heating and has Pvc doors and windows with double glazing and thermal and acoustic protection.Outside the house, there is a small kitchen where the diesel tank and boiler are located. This heating system is very efficient, but the boiler can always be replaced with a wood, pellet or heat pump boiler.The house has been remodelled using noble, sober materials that create a very harmonious atmosphere!A house of details, where stone, glass and wood come together to create a unique atmosphere.And the views? And the sunset?Unbelievable and unique!It is very important to inform you that this village is being intervened on by the competent authorities, in order to create a halo of clean, rejuvenated woodland and introduce species such as cork oaks, chestnut trees and strawberry trees. The work is already underway, the forest has been cleared and replanting will begin very soon.From home, let's go to the Louainha river beach? - 5 minutesShall we also go to the Pedra da Ferida waterfall? - 7 minutesTo the walkways, hermitages, neighbouring villages... We go everywhere! Whether by car, on trails or on foot.It's important to note that 10 minutes from this villa, there's a Portuguese public school, an international school and all the activities and shops we need (Penela Centre is 5 km away).Property description:- 202 square metres of total land area- 213 square metres of gross construction areaFeatures:- 1 fitted kitchen- 2 complete bathrooms- 3 bedrooms, 1 of which en suite- 1 laundry room- 1 large lounge- 1 living room- Back garden- MarqueeRelevant distances:- Espinhal Village at 5 km- Motorway at 6 km (free)- City of Coimbra at 20 km- Lisbon at 200 km- City of Porto at 150 km- Schools at 5 km- Supermarket at 5 km ref: 139494
