Quinta das Lages is a completely organic and self-sufficient estate, offering all the essential prerequisites while remaining easy to manage.
A move-in-ready country house, abundant water from two groundwater boreholes and two ponds, a vineyard, fruit tree plantations, olive groves, cultivated land, and much more make this property a rewarding and inspiring opportunity for the nature-conscious buyer seeking to give their life a new direction.
There is a move-in-ready, single-storey country house built in a traditional regional style, featuring a spacious open kitchen with an open fireplace, bathroom, two bedrooms, garage, and a cellar. In front of the house, a large stone table invites for relaxed outdoor gatherings.
The drinking water supply comes from the property’s own borehole, providing an abundant year-round supply of cool, clean groundwater.
The house, built in 2005, is registered as an agricultural building and has been approved as such by the municipality of Idanha-a-Nova, with the corresponding usage licence.
The land has been cultivated organically for over 20 years by a Portuguese couple. The vineyard produces an average of approximately 300–400 litres of organic quality wine per year. In addition, there are over 300 mostly low-growing olive trees of various varieties, making harvesting easy. In 2025, the yield amounted to more than 150 litres of premium olive oil.
There is also a large variety of fruit trees of many kinds, including lemons, oranges, mandarins, figs, peaches, persimmons, loquats (nespera), apricots, plums, pomegranates, kiwis, and more, all well maintained, highly productive, and organically managed. Truly rare and valuable assets!
Plenty of deep, fertile agricultural land suitable for organic cultivation is also available, with easy irrigation options.
Climatically, the area is ideal and well known for fruit and wine production, with its hot and dry summers.
Included in the purchase price is a Kubota tractor with attachments, as well as various agricultural tools and machinery.
The water tank has a storage capacity of 70,000 litres and was designed so that it can easily be converted into a swimming pool (it has already been used as such). Two private boreholes supply both the land and the house with ample water year-round.
The existing solar system is grid-connected (no battery storage) and feeds electricity into the public grid. According to the owners, the average production is sufficient to cover their own consumption.
Just 10 minutes to the nearest town of Idanha-a-Nova, and 15 minutes to the large and idyllic Idanha-a-Nova reservoir, offering a wide range of water sports and swimming opportunities.
Castelo Branco is approximately 30 minutes away, and the international airports of Porto and Lisbon can be reached in around 2.5 hours.
