Quinta do Mosteiro de São Jorge, a 37-hectare estate made up of a series of buildings of a distinctive nature and a vast area of woodland and irrigated land, located on the south bank of the River Mondego, combines the advantages of a bucolic setting with the proximity of the city of Coimbra and its World Heritage University.
The urban part of the property has a built-up area of around 6,500sqm, divided into three distinct bodies, including the cloister, the church, the friars’ refectory, a small chapel next to the monks’ cell, as well as a large 17th-century corner balcony with a magnificent view over the Mondego, baroque tiles throughout most of the building and a painting by André Gonçalves dating from 1751.
Although the foundation of the Monastery of St. George is shrouded in mystery, miraculous legends place it in the early 11th century and by the middle of the following century it was inhabited by the canons of St. Augustine.
With the exception of the period between the 16th and 18th centuries, when it was in the hands of the Jesuits, the monastery remained in the possession of the Augustinians until 1834, when the extinction of the religious orders meant that the Quinta and the monastery passed into the hands of private individuals, beginning a path of slow and progressive degradation of the building, which brought it to a state of almost complete ruin.
In 1999, the Monastery of St. George acquired the Quinta and began a vast and comprehensive campaign of works to adapt it to the needs of the Vasco da Gama University School, which operated there until the end of 2013.
Very interesting for a tourist investment due to its location, its built-up area and its historical, architectural and landscape value.

’Quinta Senhorial das Lameiras’ is located 17 kilometres from the city of Coimbra and less than 30 minutes from the beaches of Figueira da Foz.
The estate, which dates back to the reign of King João IV ( (phone hidden) th century, has a total area of 14 hectares, fully walled.
History and elegance:
The manor house, built in the middle of the 18th century, boasts impressive architecture with 40 rooms, including an oratory dedicated to St Barbara, solid wood floors and decorative wooden ceilings, including a painting of the coat of arms of the Soares family, the former owners. Inhabited to this day, it has an implantation area of 550 sqm and 1.100 sqm of usable built area, spread over two bodies that form an L-shape. Both have two floors throughout and house: 9 bedrooms, 6 bathrooms, 1 kitchen, 2 pantries, 1 dining room, 1 living room, 2 offices, a wine cellar, 3 storage rooms, 1 noble hall, 2 lounges, 1 billiards room, 1 table football room, 1 workshop, 1 children’s room, 1 storage room for the children to play in and 2 rooms for visitors and storage.
We must emphasise the stone staircases, the immense garden areas with shrubs, the countless leafy trees that line the entire estate and the fantastic swimming pool with all its surroundings.
Last but not least, the original 17th century Chapel of Senhor dos Aflitos, with its unusual hexagonal shape, charming architectural details and valuable paintings, is located at the far east of the property..
Punctual modernisation works could transform this centuries-old house into a contemporary, elegant and spacious abode, preserving all its history.
Farming:
Over the centuries, the Quinta has been used for agricultural production, from olive oil and milk to kiwis. The property includes modern infrastructure such as irrigation systems, agricultural equipment and a photovoltaic installation. The diverse land includes an active kiwifruit orchard (5ha), oak forest (3ha), beautiful native laurel forest, orange trees (great!), fig trees, a small fruit orchard, several centenary cork oaks, 1 unique pine tree, some old olive trees and ash trees (2 ha).
The farm also has several agricultural outbuildings, such as: 1 Multipurpose Building, with an area of 237 sqm, which includes: the caretaker’s house with 95 sqm, an office with 35 sqm and a workshop with 33 sqm. The rest of the area is occupied by warehouses, garages for agricultural implements and cars, a garage and warehouse for chemical products, a kennel and warehouse, a cereal warehouse and the ruins of a wine press.
The farm’s potential:
This property, with its distinctive manorial characteristics and ample potential, offers a wide range of alternatives. As well as being ideal as a charming country residence for those seeking an active lifestyle, it presents diverse possibilities. It could be adapted to create a Rural Tourism Unit with a rich history and striking classical style, as well as being considered for other hotel and leisure investments.
It enjoys very good access and excellent sun exposure. Come and see this unique farm in the heart of Portugal. (Refrª. 1024-23)
