Fall in love with the place.
A riverside town in the Alto Minho. At its heart, a three-storey house on Largo da Valeta, ready for whatever you want it to become.
01 The place
Daily life in Arcos de Valdevez happens in its old streets: the civic square, the cafés, the small shops, all a few minutes from the door. The Rio Vez sets the town's outdoor rhythm, with a river beach and a riverside walking trail.
Beyond town, the Alto Minho opens up: terraced villages, stone granaries and the Peneda-Gerês National Park, all within half an hour by car.
02 The building
Behind the old ochre façade: three floors of 102.4 m² each, with two doors onto the street. Room for guests, for a few homes, or for a home of your own with income alongside it.
03 Possibilities
Concept studies have already been drawn for the building. Pick a direction to see what it could look like.
An intimate base for travellers exploring the river, the mountains and the villages, run as a small hospitality business.
One apartment per floor, for long-term rental, sale, or family, right in the centre of town.
Make the top floor your own home in Arcos, and let guest suites on the floors below help cover the costs.
