The property enjoys an excellent location, just 120 km from Lisbon, 100 km from Spain, and 32 km from Ponte de Sor Airfield. Avis is an increasingly sought-after destination, valued not only for its authentic Alentejo charm, but also for its close connection to Maranhão Dam, with around 48 km of water surface, considered one of the best inland water mirrors in Europe for water sports, particularly rowing. It is used as a training location by top athletes, including national champion Fernando Pimenta, and as a training centre for European rowing teams. The municipality is also rich in gastronomy, wine culture and local traditions, hosting several events throughout the year, such as the Medieval Fair in May, the Feira Franca in July, and the popular Traveler's Event in September. A truly exceptional estate where nature, water, comfort and investment potential come together in perfect harmony.
