Adega Velha

Adega Velha is a restored 385 sqm traditional Alentejo country estate set on approximately 15,000 sqm of private land in São Marcos da Serra.
The primary residence features an authentic layout where the dining room serves as the main entrance hall, a characteristic element of historic Portuguese country houses.
The interior is defined by handcrafted cane ceilings, whitewashed walls and natural Santa Catarina terracotta stone floors. The kitchen preserves its traditional character, operating as a functional space integrated into the home’s original identity. Custom-crafted Siberian larch timber windows equipped with double glazing and burglar-resistant safety glass secure the main living areas.
The ground floor includes a master bedroom with an ensuite bathroom alongside a guest bedroom and a dedicated guest bathroom.
The estate expands beyond the main residence to include an independent guest house and a separate guest apartment. These additional structures provide distinct living spaces while maintaining the architectural continuity of the property, characterized by original handmade
roof tiles.
The exterior grounds support a self-sustaining lifestyle with a private vineyard that produces up to 350 liters of organic red Touriga wine annually, alongside olive trees yielding up to 60 liters of organic olive oil. A Mediterranean pine-lined avenue leads to the main house and its surrounding terraces. Outdoor amenities include a 12.5 x 5.5 m salt swimming pool and a private lake known locally as a barragem.
The property’s infrastructure is supported by three boreholes - one dedicated to the house and pool supply, and two for agricultural irrigation - as well as a 4.5 kW solar system, grid electricity and a water softening system.
Located 15 minutes from the A2 motorway and 28 km from Silves, the estate connects to regional dining options such as Restaurante Luar da Fóia, Teresinha and Pimenta Rosa.
