For sale | 5 Bedroom(s) | Beja | Salvada

Herdade in the Baixo Alentejo, in Salvada, Beja, land covered by the characteristic cork oak and holm oak forest, gently undulating, sparsely populated, where you can, on cloudless nights, have a view of the starry night as only in the deepest Alentejo.

The house was thought of as if it were a work of art, the result of a great love lived by two great Portuguese contemporary artists.

The design was crafted by Architect Bartolomeu Costa Cabral, recognized for his innovative fusion of contemporary and traditional elements, as well as his keen attention to harmonizing buildings with their environment. He places great emphasis on factors such as natural lighting, material cohesion, efficient spatial layout, and seamless integration of spaces.

The use of rammed earth, a traditional construction process in the south of Portugal, was chosen in combination with a concrete structure, known for its excellent thermal behavior. The land for the elaboration of the rammed earth was taken from the site itself, obtained in the earthworks necessary for the implantation of the house, resulting in a combination of volumes that seem to have emerged from the land itself. All the components of the construction, from the window frames to the cabinets, have been specially designed for this purpose. One of the most attractive features of the house is its relationship with the outside. All spaces have access to more or less private patios, starting with the entrance that is made by a walled patio with two orange trees and where a spout permanently lets water run into a tank, and continuing through the individual patios that serve the various rooms, to the large covered patio that is also an outdoor dining area and that gives access to the pool. This has the shape of a long tank, lined with green shale, with little depth, good for swimming, with salt water.

Electrical energy is supplied by a system of photovoltaic panels and conserved in a battery pack, water is heated by solar thermal panels and comes from a borehole, heating is provided by fireplaces and by a series of radiators connected to a diesel boiler.

The house consists of two distinct areas, with autonomous entrances, but connected by a central patio with a lemon tree: a living area, consisting of a large kitchen equipped SMEG / dining area, a large living room with fireplace, a suite (bedroom, bathroom and walk in closet), a double bedroom and two singles, served by a bathroom and a social toilet; and a work area, in which in addition to a bathroom and a support room, there are the ateliers.
