“Quinta da Gandra”, next to the Teixeira River in Frende, Baião, is waiting for you! The ruins and estate of “Gandra” are located on one of the slopes overlooking the Teixeira River, at the entrance to the beautiful and sunny parish of Frende, the last parish in the municipality of Baião, in the Porto district. Situated at one end of the parish, it is the first property you encounter. This beautiful estate borders the Teixeira River, which flows for approximately another kilometre before reaching the Douro River. Near the weir and along the riverbank belonging to the property, you could even create your own private riverside beach. The large ruins, with east/west orientation, offer unobstructed views over the lush green landscape, which transforms into beautiful colours in autumn, as well as over the river, whose flowing waters can be heard from the property, and the vineyards of the village opposite. The setting is truly unique. The two-storey structure is partly built in granite stone and partly in brick. The original roof was tiled, although it is now completely uncovered. The house originally comprised three bedrooms, a living room, a kitchen and one bathroom. Access to the upper floor was via stone and brick stairs leading to a small patio, from where you can enjoy an impressive view over the river, the terraced fields, the springs and the vineyards, including some belonging to the renowned Quinta da Dona Teresa and Quinta do Novo Sol. On the ground floor, there is space for storing agricultural equipment. The remains of an old threshing floor, once the setting for traditional corn-husking gatherings, give the property a charming sense of history and could be transformed into a wonderful area for family and social gatherings. At the rear of the property, attractive rocks and stone formations can also be found, offering interesting possibilities for integration into the future landscaping and architectural design. The house requires complete renovation or demolition and reconstruction, offering the opportunity to create your dream home: modern, comfortable and perfectly integrated into its natural surroundings. There is also the potential to create a viewpoint overlooking the river at the bottom of the property. Access to the estate is via the EN108 national road, known as the Douro riverside road, a paved route connecting Freixo, in Porto, to Régua. At the entrance to the property, currently marked by a simple gate, there is a wide track suitable for a jeep, van or quad bike, leading to the house and crossing the property through its five large agricultural terraces. Towards the lower part of the estate, the paths become narrower as they approach the river. The property is bordered by a wall along the national road at the top. On the sides, it borders Quinta da Dona Teresa, separated by a low stone wall, as well as two other neighbouring properties, while the Teixeira River forms the lower boundary. The land has two natural water springs located on two of the terraces, as well as two water storage tanks. Throughout the estate, there are several fruit trees, including fig trees and especially citrus trees, as well as traces of an old vineyard. There are numerous areas with excellent potential for creating a barbecue area, leisure spaces, a swimming pool and sports facilities. The parish is approximately 40 minutes from Vila Real Aerodrome and 30 minutes from the A4 motorway. It is also around 5 minutes from Santa Marinha do Zêzere and Mesão Frio, 15 minutes from Régua and 20 minutes from Baião. The estate and village are located at the gateway to the Alto Douro Wine Region, classified by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site. Road, rail and river connections are available within approximately 10 minutes. The property is also close to river beaches and docks, as well as several municipal swimming pools set in beautiful natural surroundings. The Moledo Thermal Baths and Aregos Thermal Baths are also nearby. In the parish and surrounding areas, there are several associations and organised groups offering a variety of sporting activities, including water and mountain sports. In the nearby towns, you will find a full range of services to support your personal and professional life, while essential amenities are available just one minute away by car. Let your imagination take flight and come discover this little piece of paradise. Rebuild it just as you have always dreamed!
