A large, four storey town house for sale close to Abrantes in central Portugal. The house, which has seven bedrooms, retains many original features including a tiled facade and wooden staircase. The house has mains water and electricity connected and there is a walled courtyard garden with vehicle entrance gate.

The property does require modernisation and some renovation works, but is ideally suited to be converted into a bed and breakfast establishment due to its size and location. The windows are wooden framed and single glazed with some internal wooden shutters.

There are many original features intact including some unusual hand painted murals within a selection of the rooms. There is a 500 square metre courtyard garden which is walled and private. This walled garden can be accessed either from the house or view two separate vehicle gate ways. Both of these gate ways have carved stone lintels.

The garden is overgrown and does require attention, however it is secluded and is possible to utilise the space for parking as well. The property does require renovation and restoration work, though there are some stunning features intact including hand painted 'landscape' murals within several of the rooms. The property briefly comprises:

Ground Floor: The ground floor of the property has served several purposes in the past, both as a house and a shop and thus there are still two entrances to the front.

At the rear of this room there is an office, which also has a wooden floor. There are also storage rooms to this floor, which can be accessed from either the 'shop' or the courtyard garden, as can a partially tiled bathroom.

There is a living room off the hallway, which has a wooden floor, ceiling and internal shutters.

First Floor: There is a second living room to the first floor. This living room also has a wooden floor and ceiling and internal wooden shutters as well as two sets of part glazed patio doors, which lead out to a veranda overlooking the courtyard garden. To three walls of the living room there are hand painted 'landscape' murals, which date back over 100 years. Some of these paintings are in relatively good condition. There are three bedrooms to this floor, all of which have wooden floors and ceilings. One of these bedrooms is double aspect. There is a partially tiled bathroom with a bath with shower above, toilet, bidet and pedestal sink.  The kitchen is also located on the first floor.
