  • Thank you for watching! This video is made to document how the property looked when we just bought it (filmed on 3 September 2024). We will take you along the whole land and tell you what's already there and some of the plans for the future. Our goal is to transform this (already beautiful) place into a small farm with animals, lots of fruit trees, our own vegetables and having people come over to enjoy it with us. We want to build 2 or 3 accommodations + two camper spots and that will be our main income. But besides that we want to be involved with the local community and make business together. How? Well, we don’t exactly know jet but we leave a little bit over to spontaneous adventures.
    Let us know how you liked our first video, what more do you want to see and do you see yourself buy a property in Portugal ;)?
    Much love; Jorg, Lisa & Vi

    Thank you guys for showing us around your beautiful property! It looks like you made a great purchase. The Land has a lot of potential and it's great to see your enthusiasm.
    The audio quality was great and I liked the walk around style. It would have been nice to see some of your drone footage to get a better understanding of the property.
    Excited to see an update when it has rained a bit and you have the keys to the house.

    Gefeliciteerd met dit huis! erg mooi en zo op het eerste gezicht perfekt onderhouden!
    Het feit dat de avocado boom is zo vol met vruchten wil zeggen dat er meer dan genoeg water is. Het riet duidt daar ook op.
    De nespera werd al genoemd in de comments. Ik vind het niet zo lekker: veel grote pitten, weinig vruchtvlees.
    Het lijkt een groot terrein te zijn (2, 3 hectares?), om dat met een bushmaaier in het gareel te houden is véél werk. Het kleine jonge boompje is, denk ik, een kerseboom. Dat alles droog is is normaal voor de tijd van het jaar. Het huis lijkt me redelijk veilig wat betreft brandgevaar. Wel altijd alle dennenaalden ea branbaar meteriaal opruimen. En een sprinklerinstallatie is een heel goed idee.
    Wat betreft schaduw: loofbomen zijn veel meer resistent tegen brand en geven natuurlijk ook veel schaduw.
    veel suc6 met jullie plannen!

    Amazing property, welcome to this lovely country. Watch out with your lovely doggo for the pine tree caterpillars. After January they start growing, and in spring they come down the trees in massive balls or usually lines (they are called processionary because they imitate a snake and follow each other). Super interesting for the dogs, but super dangerous. Can make their tongue fall out or even kill them if fully ingested. It is an absolute plague in Portugal, not much to do unfortunately in pine areas, except control the doggo. I have a super curious 2 year old GSD in also a 4Ha farm, so last year was a full ordeal to not let them find them.

    Beautiful property guys! You are very lucky!
    I was hearing you talking about shade around the house, it is very nice, but be VERY CAREFUL, don't have big trees near the house. You may have seen recently the problems we have in Portugal with wild fires. Your property has a LOT of fuel to burn. Be careful about planting trees near the house.
    Those big pine trees are great. I'd have them have a "hair cut". There seems to be a lot of old dead branches. Have those cut, for fire safety. Keep the bare minimum of plan fuel close to the house. As you are so remote, and without any more houses nearby, in case of a big fire, like these ones we had last week, your place will be of low priority for the firefighters, as not a lot is at risk, just one house. Never, ever, rest. Keep it clean during the whole Summer! And again, be careful with trees near the house! If you ever have a fire there (God forbid) your house will be much safer if it doesnt have big trees around.

The plant on the lower terrace looks like giant reed (Arundo donax) which thrives in damp places so it's a good indicator that the soil there receives and retains a lot of water.

      @@Quinta.Ivonne Just me trying to be helpful. :) The giant reed is considered an invasive species in Europe so it's something to keep a watchful eye on. But it's also a good soil stabiliser, and will help to trap any sediments washed down the property from the higher terraces, especially when the rains come. See how the land performs over the winter and how much (if any) erosion you get. It may be beneficial to keep it, or at least some of it. It's also a really good biofuel!

    Proficiat, wat een geweldig prachtig stuk grond én huis! Je groententuin kan je best dichtbij de meest vochtige grond (waterbron) zetten en een plek met relatief veel schaduw. In warmere landen verbranden de groenten in de zon en moet je schaduwdoeken hangen...

    Well just seen your blog and it looks like the previous owner made the classic mistake of renovating the living are first instead of the garden, too many off gridders do the same. When you buy a property like that. The first thing is to sort the garden and get your food growing as we all have to eat and better from the garden than from the shop and once started the crops then you can renovate the house to your liking as the crops will grow without you, but you are lucky as the house looks habital so you can get straight to the garden as it definitely needs work.. Good luck and have fun.

    What a lovely property! Nice to see some more Dutch speaking people around. Personally, with a property like yours, I would make water collection a real priority. (perhaps some gutters and 1000L IBC tanks next to many of those buildings) Perhaps also some ponds spread across the property. And probably also a good idea to clear an area to protect the buildings from wildfires, as we've just seen. I think they recommend an area of 30m from the houses that you keep well maintained and well watered? Worth thinking about, given recent events. But looks wonderful! So many possibilities.
