The patio is fenced in with granite masonry.In terms of state of repair, the main house is in need of renovation, the caretaker's house is in a reasonable state of repair and the remaining areas are in a precarious state of repair, requiring interior and exterior renovation.The property is located in the village of Santa Eugénia, in the Alto Douro Vinhateiro, about 9 km from Alijó and approximately 15 km from the A4 (Pópulo) highway that connects Porto to Bragança.The natural beauty associated with a markedly Trás-os-Montes landscape includes the Serra de Santa Bárbara and the Tinhela river. In a markedly rural environment, the village and the surrounding region are home to various heritage sites from different historical periods. The geological, hydrogeological, cultural, ethnographic and gastronomic heritage complement the surroundings.In economic terms, the primary sector dominates, producing olive oil, Port wine, table wine, muscatel and, more recently, sparkling wine.
