12-Hectare Estate on the Ribeira de Odeleite: Open Views over the Valley and Hills, Licensed Borehole, Irrigation in Place and Varied Orchard

Rustic land of approximately 12.2 hectares (122,120 m²), made up of two adjoining plots that border the Ribeira de Odeleite, in the parish of Odeleite, municipality of Castro Marim, in the Algarve. It has its own water supply, open views over the stream and the hills, and enough scale to farm, to host guests or simply to enjoy.

The Land

The property comprises two rustic plots of 64,360 m² and 57,760 m², which border each other and the stream, forming a natural unit for farming. Excellent views over the Ribeira de Odeleite and the hills.

Trees and Plantations

The orchard combines traditional Algarve species, such as carob, almond and fig trees, with mature cork oaks, whose first cork harvest took place in 2020. Alongside these are recent plantings of 1 ha of carob trees and 1 ha of strawberry trees (medronho), both with irrigation installed, and 2 ha of prickly pear, not yet in production.

Water and Infrastructure

- Licensed borehole
- Steel water tank with a capacity of 110 m³ (110,000 litres)
- Filtration station with sand filter for one section of the irrigation system
- Irrigation installed on the carob and strawberry trees
- Shipping container on footings, ideal for storage and farm equipment

Tourism Potential

According to information issued by the Municipal Council in October 2024, part of the land lies within an area where certain tourism developments may be permitted, namely a rural hotel, hotel or pousada, subject to compliance with the applicable regulations.

The viability of any project is subject to planning, environmental and fire-protection rules, as well as to the opinions and approvals of the competent authorities. The land has no existing buildings, and the municipal information does not constitute project approval or a guarantee of building capacity.

Location and Access

Convenient access via a tarmac road, with only a final stretch of dirt track. The rural surroundings, marked by tranquillity and the landscape of the inland Algarve, feature the Odeleite reservoir, a river beach, and opportunities for hiking and outdoor activities. It is ideal for those who value nature, relaxation and authenticity.
