A 2.675-hectare estate. A retreat between the pine forest and the sea, with the potential to bring to life a truly unique architectural project — where the house does not rise above the land, but is born from it.On the northeastern hillside of Melides lies a place where the landscape remains authentic and untouched. Surrounded by umbrella pines, centuries-old cork oaks, and the golden light of the Alentejo coast, this 2.675-hectare property offers a rare combination of privacy, nature, and proximity to the sea.Set within one of the most sought-after areas of the Alentejo coastline, Monte Alto do Zambujal is located just minutes from the wild beaches of Melides and its lagoon, in a setting of remarkable tranquillity. Here, luxury is revealed through simplicity: space, silence, horizon, and time.The property includes a pre-existing building with recognised legal status, allowing the possibility of envisioning a future residential project, subject to the relevant licensing process. There is currently a conceptual architectural study proposing a contemporary approach fully integrated into the landscape — a home designed to follow the land’s natural topography, minimising visual and environmental impact while enhancing the connection with its surroundings.The architectural vision draws inspiration from the concept of earth design: organic lines, green roofs, expansive glass surfaces, and a seamless connection between interior and exterior spaces. A concept created to respect the character of the place while enhancing its sense of introspection and privacy.More than simply a plot of land, Monte Alto do Zambujal represents the opportunity to create a unique retreat on the Alentejo coast — whether as a family residence, holiday home, or contemporary architectural project in complete harmony with nature.Key Features* Total area: 26,750 m² (2.675 hectares)* Pre-existing building: 44 m², with recognised legal status* Construction potential up to 500 m², subject to architectural project and municipal approvalThe images and architectural references presented are for illustrative purposes only and are non-binding.
