Country Estate, Almeirim, Raposa
Between Almeirim and the village of Raposa, in the heart of Ribatejo, lies the stunning Herdade do Convento da Serra, with 173 hectares of history, nature, and authenticity. Founded in 1501 by order of King Manuel I, this unique estate preserves the roots of the old Dominican convent built beside a spring, in a serene and untouched setting. With a privileged location — just 85 km from Lisbon and with excellent road access — it offers the peace of the countryside with the proximity of major urban centers.
The estate stands out for its vast cork oak forest (120 ha), stone pine (21 ha), and biodiverse woodlands, with high agricultural and forestry profitability potential.

Equipped with four ponds, an artesian borehole, and natural pastures, it is ideal for agricultural or nature tourism projects. The entire property is fenced and includes several functional infrastructures, such as warehouses, a workshop, paddocks, and stables with 3 boxes.
The residential component includes five Local Accommodation units, with capacity for 24 guests, carefully restored in traditional Ribatejo style.
