Elegant 18th Century Palace With Garden And Swimming Pool

About the Property

An elegant 18th-century palace, built in 1700, located in the historic centre of Elvas, Portugal, this remarkable property spans approximately 1,100 sqm and features 11 suites, a private chapel, and a serene garden with a swimming pool. The palace presents exceptional potential for a private residence or luxury boutique hotel, all within a UNESCO World Heritage city. In the heart of Elvas, this distinguished palace harmoniously blends history, architecture, and sophistication. The generous, light-filled spaces are designed to provide an exceptional sense of comfort and exclusivity. The interiors invite relaxation, revealing a series of distinguished living areas and a dining room designed for convivial moments, where elegance meets the pleasure of sharing. The transition to the outdoors is both subtle and seamless, leading to a tranquil garden with a swimming pool, creating an exclusive retreat in the historic centre. The presence of a private chapel adds a unique and poetic dimension to this extraordinary property. The restoration, led by renowned architect Manuel Aires Mateus, has carefully preserved the soul of the building while elevating it through a contemporary and timeless approach. The interior design project, created by Atelier L’Éléphant, further enhances this identity, resulting in sophisticated spaces where design and history engage in a refined dialogue. The property also includes 10 ancillary buildings, providing approximately 600 sqm of additional space, opening the door to multiple possibilities — from residential expansion to the creation of a heritage project with significant investment and income-generating potential. These annex buildings may be acquired together with the palace for an additional price of: - Lot 1: €250,000 - Lot 2: €200,000 Thanks to its configuration, scale, and privileged location, the property offers exceptional versatility and is fully licensed for Local Accommodation (Alojamento Local), while retaining its essence as a unique private residence. There is also the possibility of acquiring the property fully furnished, with carefully selected furnishings that complement and enhance the distinctive atmosphere of this singular estate.
