Description
In the heart of Tomars rich Templar history lies the Quinta dos Pegões, a singular and extraordinary property spanning 32 hectares, seamlessly blending history, luxury, and nature. The Quinta harmoniously borders the majestic Aqueduct of the Convent of Christ, one of Portugals most impressive Renaissance works, classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Built in the 16th century by order of King Philip I, the aqueduct was designed to supply water to the monks of the Convent of Christ, which served as the headquarters of the Order of Christ, the successor of the Knights Templar in Portugal. This profound historical connection adds unparalleled cultural value to the property.
Featuring two meticulously restored residences, the Quinta preserves historical elements while offering modern comfort. One of the houses dates back to the construction of the aqueduct and was originally built as shelter for the workers of the era. The second house, a former olive oil mill, was transformed in 2022 with the highest quality standards. Both residences have three bedrooms, with the main house offering en-suite bedrooms, a kitchen equipped with Miele appliances, and luxurious finishes throughout.
The Quinta also stands out for its wine production. Currently, it features 3.5 hectares of mature vineyards producing high-quality wines. By 2025, this area will expand to 6.1 hectares with the addition of 2.6 hectares of newly planted vineyards. Furthermore, the estate offers the potential to extend the vineyard area to a total of 10 hectares, making it an excellent choice for wine enthusiasts.
