About this property

Your home in the heart of Alentejo

  • The house of Paquetes located in Alto Alentejo, in the village of Terrugem - Elvas arises from the recovery idea of ​​the house of his paternal great-grandparents of the current owner. Upon his recovery, there was a concern of keeping the original design so as not to detract from the original solution. The stone walls and "dumb brick", as well as paving flags floors and wooden ceilings have been carefully preserved.
