Located in the heart of the Serras de Aire e Candeeiros Natural Park is the charming and historic town of Torres Novas. This municipality has a rich Roman heritage, evidenced by the impressive ruins of 'Vila Cardilium'. In addition, Torres Novas played a fundamental role in the beginnings of the Portuguese nation, being one of the first cities conquered from the Arabs by King Sancho I in 1190. The emblematic Torres Novas Castle, classified as a national monument, bears striking witness to this medieval presence. Located just an hour from the capital Lisbon, the city is part of the Fatima-Torres Novas-Tomar axis, a region steeped in gastronomy, history, culture and, of course, religion, with the Sanctuary of Fatima being the greatest exponent of this religious devotion. In this context, a magnificent palace stands out, the former convent of the Holy Spirit, extinct at the end of the 18th century. Located in the centre of Torres Novas, close to a variety of services, shops and public and private facilities, the building has been completely restored and refurbished. The property extends over two floors, including a use of the attic which offers a bathroom and a versatile room, suitable, for example, for use as an office. On the ground floor, there are two multifunctional spaces, a garage with a cellar and a laundry area, with access to the garden at the back of the mansion, overlooking the River Almonda. The second floor consists of four suites, a guest bathroom, a spacious living room and a fully equipped kitchen with Siemens appliances. During the refurbishment, some original elements were preserved, such as the wooden floors, the wooden shutters on the glazed windows and the limestone stonework. The windows, meanwhile, are PVC with triple glazing. This property is an excellent choice for those looking for a unique experience, balancing the rural and urban environment in a region steeped in history in central Portugal. (REF.
