About this land

Set along the banks of the Mondego River, this remarkable riverside property extends over almost 9 hectares (88,150 m2) of land, offering a rare sense of space, privacy and connection to nature. With around 600 metres of direct river frontage, the land includes easy access to the river itself and a private bathing area, creating natural spots for swimming, fishing, row-boating or paddle-boarding, or simply spending long days by the water. The property includes two existing buildings in need of complete renovation and is registered with both rustic and urban articles, providing a solid legal framework for future plans. The surrounding landscape is shaped by the wide sweep of the Mondego River and the natural setting in a valley at the foothills of the Serra da Estrela, combining a secluded spot in nature with excellent accessibility via nearby road and rail links. Despite its secluded feel, the location remains practical. The village of Ribamondego is less than 1km away, with Vila Franca da Serra close by, and the towns of Fornos de Algodres and Celorico da Beira with all amenities around 15 minutes away. The city of Viseu is reachable in about half an hour, making this an appealing option for both permanent living and visitors. This is a place that lends itself naturally to a slower, more intentional way of life – whether as a private riverside retreat, a family project rooted in nature, or a small-scale tourism or retreat centre that makes the most of its setting.
