Overlooking the River Minho (border between Portugal and Spain), Vila Nova de Cerveira, (known internationally as the 'Vila das Artes' where the Fine Arts biennial has been held since 1978), is a Minho village of great beauty. Natural. This property is located in the parish of Sopo, a rural village where the scent of nature prevails and a deafening silence reigns, occasionally interrupted by the songs of native birds. A recommended investment for those who appreciate privacy and the tranquility of the countryside.The property we present to you shows constructive features of rural architecture, adorned by the structure of an old granary, and benefits from generous areas as well as a vast lawned garden and extensive green area with various species of flowers, shrubs and trees, including two imposing redwoods (a natural species from some regions of Brazil, which were imported from Canada).The original buildings were subject to rehabilitation in 1990 and were subsequently interconnected, as well as some improvements were introduced over the following decades. The exterior walls are built in stone masonry. The door and window frames are made of thermo-lacquered aluminum, with double glazing. A multi-split air conditioning system is installed with outdoor units interconnected to wall-mounted indoor units. Hot water is produced using thermosiphon-type solar thermal panels installed on the roof and a gas-powered water heater. Central heating radiators (hot water) are also installed in most rooms, powered by a diesel boiler. The main building is spread over two floors that communicate with each other from the inside as well as the outside. The house has six bedrooms, four bathrooms, three living rooms and a kitchen. The rooms receive natural lighting from the east, west, south and a part to the north. Several windows offer pleasant views of the outside, creating relaxing “nature pictures” (visible in some of the photographs in this publication).Outside, the attached buildings are divided into a support kitchen, a bathroom, technical area and storage room. The swimming pool - salt water - is set in the center of a lawn, with the backdrop of the undergrowth and treetops of the land that extend to the south and east of the property. At various points on the property there are several water extraction points for irrigation. In the pool area, the lawn has an automatic irrigation system. The property uses water from an artesian well approximately 50 meters deep.Inside the property, in the main entrance area, it is possible to park up to 7 light vehicles, still maintaining space for maneuvers.
