ESCOLA DAS BICAS - Escape to the peaceful countryside of Coastal Alentejo with this beautifully renovated former schoolhouse.
Located just 8 km from the pristine beaches of Carvalhal and Comporta this unique holiday home blends historic charm with modern luxury, offering a serene retreat for those looking to unwind and explore one of Portugal’s most sought-after coastal areas.
Despite its proximity to the coast, the property feels wonderfully secluded. Surrounded by classic Alentejo dune landscapes — cork trees, pine forests, dune grasses —it offers privacy and peace, without being too far from local amenities and attractions.
The heart of the property is a charming main building. Once an elementary school, now transformed into a cozy yet stylish living space. The open-plan layout includes a bright and airy living room, dining area, and a fully equipped kitchen with modern appliances. The main house also features a spacious master bedroom with a comfortable double bed and an en-suite bathroom. Large windows allow plenty of natural light and offer beautiful views of the surrounding landscape. Airconditioning ensures a relaxed stay year-round, making it the perfect retreat no matter the season.
In addition to the main house, the property includes a separate annex, ideal for guests or additional privacy. The annex has its own master bedroom with an en-suite bathroom, along with a lounge area (with a sofa bed) and a small kitchenette, offering the perfect setup for independent living.
Both parts of the house lead to the outdoor spaces that are designed for relaxation and enjoyment. A private pool is surrounded by a sun-soaked lounge area, perfect for cooling off on warm summer days. There’s also a large outdoor dining table where you can enjoy meals under the stars, and several chill-out corners around the property for reading, sunbathing, or simply taking in the beauty of the Alentejo countryside.
