Best points about the property:
" Moura Encantada lies on the margins of Santa Clara reservoir, on the sunrise side of the Alentejo, 230 km south of Lisbon. Alentejo offers a laidback pace of life, and a more tranquil atmosphere than neighbouring Algarve. Its main appeal is its nature and the sun.

Outside, in the magnificent deck suspended over the dam, there are two padded chairs loungers and a table with four chairs. Perfect for enjoying the glorious views across Santa Clara lake. The house is located 50m from the water. There is a jetty for diving, sunbathing and fishing. This is a house built with rammed earth, with two bedrooms, one with a double bed and one with two single beds. The room has mini bar, table up to eight people, sofas, television, stereo with speakers, amplifier, CD player and a huge shelf with the beginning of the Portuguese library that are to be formed in Moura Encantada.
