Two Stone Houses with Private Pool

A Double Dose of Stone-Built Bliss in Portugal’s Dreamiest Corner

Two houses. One glorious garden. And a pool with a view. If that doesn’t say come for the weekend, stay forever, I don’t know what does.

Tucked into the green folds of Alto Minho, just outside Vila Nova de Cerveira, this dual-villa retreat is the kind of listing that rarely makes it to market before someone snaps it up and never looks back.

Think: schist stone, restored bones, and sun-soaked modern comfort all wrapped up in 1,000+ m² of peace and potential. That’s reason enough to made the curated cut.
