Description

A Property with Centuries of History Near the Beaches of Peniche and Baleal

In the heart of the historic village of Atouguia da Baleia, just minutes from the world-renowned beaches of Peniche and Baleal, lies this extraordinary charming property, where history, architecture, and tourism come together in a unique investment opportunity.

Built in the 17th century, adjoining the medieval wall of the ancient Atouguia Castle, this property bears witness to centuries of Portuguese history. The castle, commissioned by King João III to protect the village from pirate attacks that ravaged the coast, served for decades as a residence for the Portuguese nobility, including Prince Pedro and court nobles, who spent seasons here for leisure and entertainment.

Set on a plot of approximately 2,000 m², this tourist property stands out for its authenticity and unique character. The main house features 11 suites, complemented by a separate annex with 3 additional suites, totaling 14 accommodation units designed to welcome guests with comfort and privacy.

The spacious interiors include two elegant lounges, a fully equipped kitchen, a laundry room, and various technical areas supporting hotel operations. Outside, a pleasant leisure area with a swimming pool offers moments of tranquility and well-being, set within a truly unique historical setting.

In 1995, the property underwent extensive restoration, expansion, and remodeling, carried out with the support of the Directorate-General for Tourism and the European Community, resulting in a prestigious rural tourism establishment. The project carefully preserved the original architectural identity, highlighting historical elements such as the Moorish chimney, the antique tiles, the pointed windows with stained glass, and the elegant 19th-century decorative details.

Today, this is a rare property on the market, ideal for investors seeking an established boutique hotel, an exclusive boutique hotel, or a distinctive tourism project in one of the most sought-after regions of the Silver Coast.

A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to acquire a historic property with high tourism potential, just minutes from the beaches, the Peniche marina, and some of Europe’s best surf spots.

The strategic location is another major asset of this property. With excellent access to the IP6 and A8 highways, it benefits from a quick and convenient connection to Lisbon and the region’s major urban centers. Lisbon International Airport is approximately 50 minutes away, providing exceptional accessibility for both domestic and international guests. Its proximity to Peniche, Baleal, Óbidos, and the various points of interest along the Silver Coast further enhances its tourism potential and appeal to an increasingly global market.
