Elegant 18th Century Palace in the Portuguese Countryside
The property was built in 1720 for an industrialist from Hamburg, and sold to the current owners’ family 70 years later.
Surrounded by 16 acres of incredible grounds with 11 acres of terraced gardens, a swimming pool, century-old trees and lots of private green spaces, the property boasts some of the finest gardens in the region.
The palace was restored and expanded by Portuguese architect Raul Lino da Silva in the early 20th century, and offers over 63,000 square feet of interior space, including 26 bedrooms throughout, and housing for staff, stables, several warehouses, and a chapel.
With its elegant facade, dreamy gardens, and extensive footprint, the 18th century palace is primed to be transformed into an elegant boutique hotel in the Portuguese countryside.
The estate has a long legacy as a destination for winemaking, architecture, cultural and sports events, and there is an opportunity to acquire the property’s original 212 acres of agricultural land and vineyards for a total of €10M.
The estate’s wine brand and furnishing can also be negotiated.
This dreamy property is located in central Portugal, 7 km from the medieval town of Óbidos and just 12 km from the region’s beaches.
