The land is very well looked after and suitable for people who want to keep horses and other livestock in sheds, paddocks and pastures.

The property is located in lovely, green, hilly surroundings just 200m from the village of Marinha on the edge of the hitherto deserted hamlet of Lapa. The property comprises a detached house in open ground with the nearest neighbor being over 100m away. Otherwise it is surrounded only by ruins but there is easy access up to the house. Lapa and Marinha form part of the Parish of Graça (municipal council Pedrógão Grande) about halfway between the towns of Figueiró dos Vinhos and Pedrógão Grande. It is approximately ten minutes off the IC8 and very close to the River Zêzere reservoir.

The Atlantic coast is about one hour away via the IC8 to the west and Spain is to the East. The nearest city is Pombal (40 km) and Coimbra, Portugal's third largest city and home of one of the oldest universities in Europe, is 60 km away. Lisbon and Oporto are around 2.5 hours away by motorway. Buses run from Figueiró dos Vinhos to Lisbon and Coimbra. The nearest train station is at Pombal.
