8-Bedroom Manor House - Pedrogão Grande
A historic 8-Bedroom manor house in the centre of Pedrógão Grande, beautifully renovated while preserving its original 13th-century granite stonework. With 836 m² of living space, eight en-suite bedrooms, multiple lounges, an office and a 115 m² attic games room, it offers exceptional versatility. The 901 m² south-facing garden features a 136 m² rustic kitchen, covered parking, fruit trees and a plunge pool. Close to shops, schools, cafés, health services and with fast access to the IC8 and N2, this unique property combines heritage, modern comfort and luxury living in central Portugal.
Historic character and modern comfort blend seamlessly in this distinguished T9 manor house in the heart of the historic village of Pedrógão Grande, Leiria. First recorded in 1531 and originally built as a small convent for Friar Diogo, the property later became a schoolhouse and, in time, an important manor house within the community. In the mid-20th century it was transformed into a refined country retreat for Lisbon-born café owner and aristocrat Ângelo Pereira. Acquired in 2016 by its present owners, it has since been thoughtfully renovated and modernised, while preserving its extraordinary heritage.
Arranged over three spacious floors and offering a total of 836 m² of living area, the accommodation is extensive and versatile. There are eight double bedrooms, all with en-suite facilities, contributing to a total of 11 bathrooms. The house includes three lounges, one of which serves as an atmospheric library, an office, and a 115 m² attic space that is outfitted as a gymnasium. One bedroom, located at the eastern end, includes a kitchenette and can function as an independent apartment.
The manor retains its original stonework throughout, constructed using imported 13th-century granite, adding a rare degree of authenticity and beauty that enhances the home’s historical significance.
The garden is generous, extending to 901 m², fully walled, south-facing, and designed for easy maintenance. It features an impressive 136 m² detached rustic kitchen with ample dining and entertainment space, as well as a covered workshop/storage area that can accommodate up to four vehicles. The grounds include a variety of mature fruit trees and a plunge pool, along with several leisure and seating areas that enjoy good sunlight throughout the day.
Located at the end of Rua Rica (“Rich Street”), the property has long held a central place in the life of the village, with historical processions passing in front of its façade on their way to the church, just 300 metres away. There are seven entrances to the house, including a gated entrance opening onto an elegant stone courtyard, complete with a Manueline carving on the balustrade.
The home is offered in immaculate condition. Renovations over the last two decades have elevated both comfort and functionality, making the property suitable as either a prestigious residence or as luxury tourist accommodation. The abundance of en-suite bedrooms and the potential to convert the library into a second kitchen provide excellent flexibility for hospitality use.
Modern conveniences include mains water, electricity, public sewerage, fibre-optic internet, photovoltaic panels (2.73 kW), and a B- energy certification. The village offers excellent daily amenities: primary and secondary schools, local supermarkets, cafés, restaurants, a petrol station, public park, pharmacy, library, health centre, municipal gym and indoor swimming pool. Pedrógão Grande also benefits from fast access to the IC8 and the iconic N2, making regional travel remarkably easy.
Surrounded by natural beauty, the area is renowned for the Cabril Dam, which offers sailing, water sports, swimming and hiking opportunities. Lisbon and Porto airports are both approximately 1 hour 50 minutes away, and the historic university city of Coimbra lies less than an hour to the north.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire an exceptional property of remarkable scale, charm and historical provenance, equally suited to luxurious family living or a high-end hospitality project.
