An old Mill in an Alentejo village

This mill has been built in the 19th century on the highest point of the village. The owner's great grandfather was making bread there for the whole village. Several buildings were gradually added around the mill, major work was carried out around twenty years ago and part of it was recently renovated. There are in total approximately 730m2 built on almost 1000 m2 walled.

The buildings are all on one level, apart from the mill itself which has three floors, and are arranged as follows:
On the south facade, there is a small garden overlooking the street and a small terrace with balcony where the front door of the original house is located. It is composed by five rooms and a bathroom with a bathtub. Aluminum shutters were installed on the entire facade. The bathroom is located at the end of the corridor which connects the house to the interior courtyard. At the beginning of this corridor, we find the access door from the courtyard, a small room without windows and a large room with a double-glazed aluminum window overlooking the street, at the point where it turns into a dirt road, right next to the outside porch for parking cars.

To the far left of the south facade, after the porch, is the gate of the wall surrounding the property and another one giving access to a large outbuilding of approximately 125 m2 for agricultural equipment. This outbuilding also has another gate on the north facade. Entering the courtyard, we find a storage room on the right, backing onto the porch. Then the corridor which leads to the original house and has an access door to the mill on the left, passing through a large room. To the left of the door leading to the corridor, a gate also allows access to this room from the courtyard. We find there:
At the bottom, a small bathroom with shower.
On the right, the door which communicates with the corridor of the house.
On the left, another room with bay windows overlooking the courtyard.
In the back, a passage behind the mill leads to the other house which has been renovated, overlooking the east facade of the property.
In the centre and to the left, the mill itself, in the shape of a cylinder on three floors, with a central pillar and two balconies on the second floor offering a magnificent view over the surrounding area.

Coming back to the courtyard, on the west facade, we find two large rooms, one without a window and the other with a fireplace, which is used as a kitchen. The latter has also been renovated: there are tiles on the floor, as well as on the lower part of the walls, and the windows and door are in aluminum. Next to the kitchen, there is an access door to the agricultural outbuilding, under a covered terrace which overlooks the pretty courtyard of approximately 225 m2.
The ground of the courtyard is made of small traditional paving stones and there are : plants and fruit trees, an 18m deep well, an old washing tank, a door to the outside of the surrounding wall to the north and two others covered terraces along the renovated house.

This house, renovated more recently, is located on the east facade and is composed by an entrance hall, a bathroom with shower and four rooms, one of which provides access to the mill. The floor is tiled, the interior wooden half doors and windows are original and the shutters are in aluminum. The entrance door from the courtyard is also recent.

All along the surrounding walls on the north and west sides, the owners have created a shaded garden on the edge of the fields.
The property is connected to the city's water, sewer and electricity networks.

This unique property offers a set of buildings to be rehabilitated in order to create several houses/apartments/bedrooms. Its surrounding wall and its location, at the very end of a small and quiet village, on the edge of the fields, guarantee calm and privacy for its occupants.
The village is 20km from the town of Beja, which can be quickly accessed by the national road. It is about 1 hour from Spain, the capital of Alentejo, Evora, as well as the beaches of the Algarve or the Atlantic.
