Photo Gallery for this property.
Stone built house of 100m2 on 2 floors. The house is in need of renovation, except for the walls, which are sound and made of good local stone. It briefly comprises of 3 rooms for habitation, a traditional kitchen and a bathroom. The main entrance is on the first floor and is accessed by wide stone steps to the front of the house.
The ground floor is where the wine cellar is found, complete with large traditional barrels.
The house has mains electric, telephone, and water connected.
It also has it’s own water source originating from a ’Mina de Agua’ - a natural source of water obtained through the local stone, then drained by channels, and stored in a pool.
To one side of the house is a private walled and gated entrance leading to the rear of the house and the land beyond.
There are two more buildings. One is an old house for the wine press, with 2 wine presses, a mechanical hand press, and an old pool for feet press - tread those grapes before sampling the wine!
The other is an old house which used to be the house where the workers lived, and which also includes a bread oven. Originally the workers lived over the former animal stables.
There is also a fantastic original Espigueiros. An Espigueiros is a traditional slated granite casket, with wooden slatted walls. Traditionally used for storing corn, and built on stilts to protect the grain from rats. They are particular to this area where they originated in the 18th Century.
The quinta is made up of the house and this interior farm with the wine presses and the old workers house. Then 80m away is the main farm of 8,000m2 which is known as ‘the best earth of the village’.
It has a total of approx. 16,000m2 (4 acres) which includes some of the best quality fertile terrain in the area. The land is half agricultural, half forest, and is half flat half, and half hillside.
The vineyard (main farm of 8,000m2) produces the best red wine "Verde" of the region (vinho verde tinto), as well as corn, and other vegetables.
Near to the house there are a variety of fruit trees including oranges, lemons, nuts, apples, tangerines, and grapes. It has an abundance of it’s own fresh water for irrigation.
Situated in the centre of the small village of Moimenta, which has all the usual amenities. Moimenta is located in the beautiful green Minho district in the North of Portugal, is 7km from the village Cavez, 14km from the small town Cabeceiras de Basto, and is 70km from the city of Braga.
The particularity of Moimenta is that it is in a valley (not very accentuated), but on one side is the Minho Province, and in front you look towards the province of Tras dos Montes, and at the bottom is the Tamega River. The river is great for fishing, trout fishermen love it!
Moimenta a lovely place which is very green, has lots of water, and basks in the warm sun of Portugal.
