The ’Quinta dos Moinhos and do Antigo Lagar’ with a total area of 5,7 hectares, distributed by 20.000 m2 of urban patio and 37.000 m2 of pine forest and free / open area, is located in Beira Interior, 15 minutes away from the city of Castelo Branco.
It is the old ’Fábrica do Ribeiro do Cerejal, in the proximities of Vila Velha de Ródão and the international Tagus river. It worked in the transformation of olives into olive oil, aided at the time by 2 water mills, 2 hydraulic presses, bagasse crusher, copper boiler furnace with 2 thousand litres of water, driven by a German hydraulic turbine. In dry periods, a powerful diesel engine and gas lighting throughout the structure. All this, a bit of history.
Today, none of this equipment exists. However, we should also mention: the wall of the small water dam of megalithic construction about 3 metres wide and the water falling over this wall, coming out of the turbine’s discharge turbo or the lateral floodgates, formed clouds of sprayed water and cascades of gigantic flows.
It is a large, ruined, austere building, totally built of granite, very robust, and of great height, able to support three floors, between the base and the roof. The building borders on the river, whose water used to move the mills, which at the time were in full activity. The walls are structurally in good condition. They are very thick, reflecting an excellent quality when they were built.
The fact of comprising a patio area with about 2 hectares, will allow for sure, to the investor client, the installation of a possible rural charm hotel, specially designed for nature and countryside, or simply for a family farm of private nature.
It is a unique place, very pleasant and quiet, with immense privacy, immersed in a valley surrounded by forest. The accesses are made through a dirt road between the property and the A23 highway. About 15 minutes from Castelo Branco, less than 1 hour from Serra da Estrela, and less than 2 hours from Lisbon. (N/ Ref 481-21).
