New on the Members' Pages: March 11

This is an odd year. Properties are coming in all of a rush, then it goes deadly quiet, and then another rush. We have a rather nice auction coming up on 25th March. Lots of pubs, a couple of schools, some development sites, and some woodland. Do have a look. However, these items are on the members' pages only, so you do need to join to see these and all the other exciting properties that get listed only on the members' pages.

A truly different kind of eco-quinta with a round granite building complete with living roof, a nice rectangular building and a round bread oven with a living roof.

Located where the Douro and Agueda rivers join, this 3ha property, besides having a wonderful view of the river, overlooks the mountains of Spain.

There is a giant well which the owner professes has abundant water all year around and this is evident from the bamboo and other water reeds that surround the immediate area.

Price:

The property lies 1km from a quaint hamlet, 2km from the nearest village and 11km from the town of Pinhel and 17km from Trancoso. The Spanish border is a short drive away.

To get to the land one leaves the quiet tarred road between the village and Pinhel and drives 1.5km of good dirt track winding through forests on one side and cultivated fruit orchards on the other, to arrive at the bottom entrance.

From the quinta towards the east lies a big stretch of forests. If one walks or drives the tracks through them for 5km one will reach a fantastic undiscovered beach on the famous river Coa.

Price:

The land for sale measures 7945.00m2 (1.96 Acres). The building plot is 149.00m2 with few restrictions as to how high you can build. There is also a possibility that building permission may be granted for a further house on the parcel adjoining which is part of this sale but listed as a separate parcel number in the land registry.

The parcel is located in the beautiful region of Prekmurje, North East Slovenia, known as the breadbasket of Slovenia. It is not overlooked by other properties and is rural but there are small farms in the village of Martinje so the property is not isolated. Both mains electricity and mains water are close to the property (20-30 meters).   Previous owners went as far as building a foundation for a house, this could be used or another built.

The land is currently a mix of trees, grassland and scrub. It is close to the Austrian border where land is twice as expensive.
