Totally unique river front property. There are almost no properties left of this kind. 7,000m2 of land on the west bank of the beautiful River Zezere is situated in a designated green zone meaning there are no possibilities to build anything new in the area.

Here exists the perfect balance between absolute privacy in nature & yet be only 15 minutes from the centre of Pedrógão Grande with its market, shops, cafes, restaurants, library, schools, etc The 52m2, 1-2 bedroom (including a mezzanine) off grid, stone house was restored & is ready to live in, from an existing ruin with potential to extend and there is another smaller ruin that can also be restored.

Electricity is solar generated & also works all year round. The land has several terraces hand built over 50 years ago with very fertile soil which was used to grow vegetables & grapes & as far as we know, never with chemicals of any kind. There is a drivable track that goes all the way down to the river where the value of the property could be greatly increased by clearing a river beach terrace and someone with an entrepreneurial spirit could build a cafe there which would be opposite a popular swimming and kayaking spot. Additional features: The gardens have several trees including Orange, lemon & mandarin, peach, olive, Sharon fruit, guava, madrona (strawberry tree) cork & oak Excellent sun exposure. The land faces East meaning you get the morning sun which warms the land quickly in winter & provides shade from the late afternoon heat in Summer. Great mobile signal from all over the land The land is on the GRZ a well maintained hiking trail with easy access to river pools with little waterfalls & one of the best sunset spots ever. #ref: 111309

The exchange rate on the day you make an offer on your property in Portugal will not be the same as the rate you pay when you complete on your purchase, as currency markets move constantly. Any large rate movements may take it beyond your price range as the chart above illustrates the fluctuation and how much extra your property could have cost you.
The best way to avoid this significant risk is to plan your budget and currency strategy with an experienced currency specialist. They have been known to save you up to 4% compared to many high street banks, £4,000 for every £100,000, which soon adds up. They will also keep you up to date on market movements, help you set a rate in advance with a product called a Forward Contract - so you know exactly what you will pay for your property in sterling.
This is why we recommend Smart Currency Exchange Ltd. If exchange rate movements continue to be as unpredictable and as significant as they have been in the past then by not using Smart Currency Exchange Ltd your property could cost you £3,483 more.
