Price?

I don’t understand people complaining on the price point? I thought at least $500k , was aghast at only $325k. This is a move in ready, beautiful property. It’s top notch designed . The owners should be very proud of their work.

One of most beautiful properties I've seen online. Stunning off-grid gear. Top.

To those few who question the price, apparently believing real estate prices should be what they were a couple of decades ago: There is no way you could duplicate this property for this price. The amazing infrastructure and the brilliant, environmentally correct improvements to the land are well beyond any other property I have seen on offer anywhere on any of the Portuguese real estate KZread channels. In this case the price is entirely justified, the owners have invested huge sums of money and countless hours of hard labour to create this stunning permaculture farm. They have demonstrated an unusual level of respect for the land, and for the future generations of people fortunate enough to live on it.

Portugal in general is waaaay over priced, with so many properties that are abandoned in cities and in villages. Instead of offering incentives for fixing these properties up and therefore alleviating the high prices the government seems intent of getting property tax from cashed up estrangeiros.

What a stunning property.

Amazing property! Worth every penny specially for all the effort put into! Well planned with lots of love for sure! Actually for all the modern staff it offers it is worth much more! wish I could buy i

This is the most beautiful redo of a stone building that anyone has shown on you tube. Worth the price whatever it is. Well thought out .

This has to the perfect Off-Grid property. Top quality equipment. Top work Ken

I love the concealed pipes ans and wires esp in a stone building where it can be hard to fit plugs and light switches. These people have really gone to town on that as well as being just completely gorgeous 😍

the price is high for most of regular folks but it is worth every penny...just move in...

This property is beautiful and clearly well loved. What a dream.

this is one of the best properties i have seen so far ...amazing!!

Why not say, central Portugal, west of Coimbra, close to border of Spain? Beautiful home, but overpriced. Foreigners buy property in Portugal and then they try to sell it for double the price that they bought it. Love your videos. Thank you for sharing the property with us.

I agree that lots are overpriced, but keep in mind there's a lot of labour and material costs. Until now I've seen a lot of ruins for sale and apparently the Portugese are not in for renovating them. Always foreigners who did the renovations.

Yes, the house is beautiful, and a lot of work has been done on the farm.But i agree, that it's a high price. In my opinion, because of the location. Also not everybody wants to live completely offgrid, a bit isolated. Properties for let say 400-500k asking price (with perfect houses) are often close to big cities, like Coimbra, or also Castelo Branco, Fundao, Covilha. Also sometimes with much more land. Maybe even the owners have put too much money into this property. Which can happen sometimes. On the other hand. I am sure there is someone out there for whom this is the perfect place.

Absolutely love it, unfortunately just slightly out of our price range as we have to put in special medical equipment in but seems well worth the money due to the infrastructure, hope owner writes down everything done & where its all linked & how too operate it, as would hate for someone to break it by accident!

Oh wow!!! That’s the best property I’ve seen you do in a while. Amazing!!!

A property done well

Excellently built and fantastic outdoor water system. Considering all of the technical bells and whistles, in addition to off grid electricity, it's not that high of a price. Perhaps if it had an additional bedroom, it could be well worth it. Also, the cabin at the edge of the property could be fixed up as a rental.

I could happily live there..😊

Stunning! And all done... worth its weight in gold. Realistically, it would not be cheap to have someone do that work for you, so I don't think it is overpriced.

Prices in Portugal have gone up like crazy. This place is 325,000 Euros. I might as well stay where I am…😢

so beautiful would love to have a place to live like that, just too expensive for my budget. :(

A bore hole is a narrow drilled well, often quite deep. The pumps are often submerged in the well itself, with only the water pipe and electrical connections visible on the surface.

Did I miss the price? Watched till the end? How much is this work of art?

I live in the states and that home will be going for more money beautiful the property alone is a bargain

great idea of hiding the cables behind 3ft of solid granite stone, also the house seems to be decor by two people, one side looks weird and not coerent the other looks fine. now i must say the outside is really well done he knew what he was doing very impressive solar, question is , why sell it when they are finaly geting the profits after all work and the investiment that was not cheap? very sus, are they owning to the bank? did they heridet from parents and now have to share with the heirs? are they selling all of it or only their share?

Very well build and most attractive object. Why are they selling up and where are they moving to? Q: What furniture and equipment stays?

Super nice property. But my feeling is that its overpriced. Solar is nice and the battery system is expensive. But that's a 35k max in the current market. So I'll keep looking. Rather restore something my self.

Yeah… chestnut or cherry wood very common in Portugal… not cheap pine wood like in uk. It’s not that close to Spain… it’s central Portugal

325k for chalet!!!!

I live in Northern Spain and have daughters in Madrid is it possible to know the asking Price?

i was guessing at the price the entire time. Darn if i wasn't way off (in a good way).

@OKportugal

2 ай бұрын

Good to hear 😊

So what's the price?

A hectare is not enough to derive real food from. For 325k you need to be including 4+ hectares of arable land, particularly in such a remote location. Nicely finished, but definitely overpriced at around 3250 EUR/m2 if the habitable area of the house is ~100 m2 (I think it is about that , but there is no total area shown on the web page); that's a hefty price, but I guess you get some solar gadgetry bc you need it. I wonder what the locals think about it.

This property is exactly what I'm looking for but I'd like it to be more south. Central Portugal is beautiful though. I don't drive so would like it if you could give details regarding public transportation and how close or far away is it. Also what amenities are available in the nearest village would help.

@OKportugal

2 ай бұрын

Central Portugal isn't really a good place to live if you do not have transport. There are busses and trains but they do not run as frequently as they do in the major cities on the coast like Oporto, Lisbon, Faro etc. There also aren't as many Uber taxis in more remote areas outside of the larger towns.

What’s the price? In your video you wrote its in your description but it’s not.
