It's a property with a great potencial:
- Holds an approved 4.5-hectare vineyard licence, supported by a complete cost and management analysis. A turnkey vineyard operator is available for future owners wishing to establish immediate cultivation and production. The licence remains valid for 12 months, with extension possible;
- With its scale, infrastructure, and location between Lisbon and Evora, the estate is also ideally suited for boutique tourism or a wellness-retreat model. A feasibility study based on the AutoCamp concept has been completed and can be provided on request;
- Monte do Picaro falls within the European Natura 2000 framework. 'The Natura 2000 Network is an ecological network aimed at sustainable management from an ecological, economic and social point of view. Human activities should be compatible with the preservation of these values, aiming at sustainable management from an ecological, economic and social point of view'. The current owners have already done the homework on future income. They've identified low-water, low-input crops that avoid heavy pesticides yet offer strong commercial returns. Monte do Picaro can easily evolve into a boutique agricultural estate with expanded olive groves, almonds, cherries, figs, mushrooms and lavender - a Mediterranean mix that pairs beautifully with both private enjoyment and export-ready products;
- A commercial-grade water-treatment system provides water quality suitable for micro-brewery or small-batch gin production offering immediate potential for craft beverage or agritourism ventures;
- With its wide acreage, gentle topography and established infrastructure, Monte do Picaro is ideally positioned for a bespoke equestrian facility. Design purpose-built stables, training arenas or a private riding school on land shaped for confidence and calm; a rare opportunity to pair luxury rural living with your equestrian vision.
The estate's infrastructure has been completely upgraded to ensure independence, efficiency, and long-term sustainability.
The farm is offered for sale with an extensive range of machinery required to maintain the property including tractor, trailer, water tanker, plough, grass cutter/shredders, ride on lawnmower, Strimmer's,
Nestled just outside Montemor-o-Novo, the estate is approximately 75-80 km from Lisbon Airport, with a typical commute to Lisbon taking 45-60 minutes. The home lies in a serene valley bordered by renowned neighbours including:
-Quinta de Plansel Winery & Alojamento Local
-Gandum Village - a 23-room eco-hotel and restaurant
-L'AND Vineyards, just 10 minutes away
-The new Ai Weiwei Art Gallery, recently opened by the globally celebrated artist.
The estate is ideally placed for exploring both the Lisbon and Costa Vicentina coastlines, each within a 40-60 minute drive.
