Property Ref 199 Casa da Zilla €124,500
This substantial property is situated on a lovely country lane close to the little town of Carril
and just a 10 minute drive from the county town of Ferreira do Zezere, where all everyday
requirements are readily available. Casa da Zilla is set back from the lane and has a lovely
garden that extends right across the front of the house, and includes fruit trees, roses and
flowering shrubs. There is a large kitchen garden to one side of the house and an old stone
threshing circle to the other, alongside the double-gated driveway. To the rear of the house,
across a spacious courtyard, there is also a very large storage building (120 sq m), behind
which lies a beautiful vineyard and olive trees.
Casa da Zilla was once three adjoining cottages, two of which now form a three-bedroom
family home, the third currently being used for oil production and wine storage. Although
perfectly habitable at the moment and generally well-maintained, with creative modification of
the existing accommodation and renovation of the third cottage, this would make a really
beautiful holiday retreat. For in addition to the footprint of 180 sq m, there is also extra potential
living space above of approx. 75 sq m (enough space for three spacious en-suite bedrooms at
first floor level).
At present, the living accommodation comprises rear access from a shaded veranda to a
hallway. On the right, this leads to a family bathroom, a dining room (with open fire and double
aspect windows), and a tiled corridor, off which are a bedroom, a lounge (both with wooden
floors) and the front entrance. Directly in front, the hallway leads to a kitchen (with fireplace
and large pantry) on one side and a small sitting room on the other. A tiled hallway leads
through to two double bedrooms and another front entrance. The third cottage is at present
subdivided into five rooms, with a total area of approx 65 sq m.
The land has a total area of approximately 3,000 sq mtrs.
All mains services are connected.
