Panoramic views and easy road access to Spain makes this secluded
and private Portugal real estate villa for sale by owner, extraordinary. Just outside the historic ancient town of Moncao
in Portugal, it lies on the River Minho. The Spanish region of Galicia, on the opposite side of the river from the estate,
has a "praia fluvial" (river beach), popular with Spanish families in the summer. Nearby is one of the top fishing
sections of the river with trout, large shad and even salmon. In front there is a superb boating section of the river, just
down from white water rapids popular with kayakers. From here you can actually navigate down to the Atlantic Ocean. This large riverfront estate, "quinta", built to the highest
standard, is suitable as a large private villa or a luxury bed and breakfast. Over 500 square meters of living space is spread
over 3 floors and it is located within 10,500 square meters of secluded, walled, fenced and gated private grounds. An extensive,
long waterfront borders the property which includes a large riverfront gate with boat access. This 6 bedroom, refurbished
"quinta", an exclusive property of the area, is of solid granite and brick construction. It's very close to the
new Vigo Dry Port. Property prices in this area are set to increase dramatically. Because most of the land is the highest
"Urbano" title, development opportunities within the grounds and adjacent land plots exist. There are 3,200 square
meters of additional land, suitable and zoned for building, also available for purchase from the owners. Although riverfront
building permits are practically impossible to obtain today, this waterfront property is exceptionally rare and desirable
because it already comes with a permit in place. The property is already classified "Urbano"
and could be developed further. Obtaining a ‘tourism accommodations license' would be guaranteed and is necessary for
the operation of a bed and breakfast in Portugal. The top
guest floor of the "quinta" is ready for conversion to a luxury bed and breakfast. The guest accommodation
includes 3 bedrooms, a bathroom, a large lounge with a fireplace, a dining area, a large storage cupboard for linens and supplies.
A private entrance door ensures the owner's privacy on the lower levels. Luxury chalets could be added to the extensive grounds
as well. An income producing investment amidst some of the best river, country and mountain views in Portugal. As the estate exists now it includes 5 bedrooms, office and/or 6th bedroom,
4 bathrooms, large living room, large TV lounge, guest lounge, dining room, breakfast room, large kitchen, study, large utility
room, wash room, "adega" (wine / food store), triple garage, long riverfront border, 510 square meters living space,
10,500 square meters of grounds, fenced off full sized swimming pool with children's section, summer house, gate house, dog
