Description

House to restore in Casal da Rosa. Set in a 950m2 plot. It comprises a house, a storage room and a garden. This house is in need of complete refurbishment, but it has a lot of potential due to its location and the fact that it is on a high point and enjoys unobstructed views. In the area there is a café 250m away and a bus stop 30m away.

With good access to the city of Coimbra, which is just 10 minutes away, Lisbon Airport 200 km and Porto Airport - 130 km. ************************************************ In 2013, UNESCO recognized the exceptional value of the University of Coimbra - Alta e Sofia by awarding it the label of World Heritage Site, which positions the city as one of the tourist and cultural destinations of choice in the region and the country.

Coimbra has a vast and unique heritage, built up over centuries, and was chosen by King Afonso Henriques as the first capital of the Kingdom of Portugal. The city was the birthplace of kings and a multicultural center, renowned for the definitive establishment of the University in 1537, one of the most important and prestigious educational institutions in Portugal.

Closely linked to the city and the university are the academic traditions, the sororities, the student life and the song of Coimbra, where the erudite and the popular merge, constituting an intangible heritage of excellence. Coimbra's natural landscape is equally attractive, with its parks and gardens of significant historical and scientific value standing out, inviting moments of contemplation and ennobling Coimbra's history and heritage.

The city currently has the magnificent Convento São Francisco, a municipal facility of excellence, which, due to its size, the latest technological generation of its equipment and the vision of its artistic programming, plays an important role in the development of the territory. The center of innovative artistic programming, this emblematic city space is also the epicentre of the mobilization of the city's economic sectors.

In the city of Coimbra, the traditional tascas are still very much alive and well and in them you can find the most varied snacks: such as gizzards, bones, woodpeckers, raia de pitau and many other delicacies, accompanied by a good wine from the farmer. In the restaurants, typical dishes such as Chanfana, Leitão da Bairrada or Arroz de Lampreia stand out.

The sweets have deep roots, largely due to the influence of the various convents and monasteries that once existed in the city. Examples of this are the Pastéis de Santa Clara or the Arrufadas, a cake with a seal of regional certification. Today, Coimbra is a dynamic hub of the Central Region. Its social, historical and heritage context, combined with a cultural offer of recognized quality, reflect the continuous process of change that marks its Candidacy for European Capital of Culture in 2027. #ref: 114636

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 £1,548 more.
