Description
Charming rustic villa in São João d'Arga (Arga de Cima) in the municipality of Caminha, known as Casa do Pontelhão. A secluded location in the heart of the Arga mountains. The house has been restored with taste and care in order to maintain the original design, which dates from 1935. The construction is based on schist and granite walls, characteristic of Alto Minho buildings. Set in a 484 m2 plot, with a construction area of 207 m2 and a gross private area of 146 m2. Comprising 2 floors, on the ground floor you'll find the entrance hall, a large living room with fireplace, a kitchen with a wood-burning oven typical of the period and a service bathroom. On the first floor there are 3 bedrooms, one en suite, a bathroom and a corridor leading to the other 2 bedrooms. On the first floor you'll also find a porch where you can enjoy the peace and quiet of the area surrounding the villa and from where you can hear the running water of the stream and waterfall that are just 100 metres from the villa. Outside, a sheltered space has been created where the stables and cellar once stood, transformed into a barbecue area, a space fenced off by granite stones that delimit the space and create an environment conducive to good family and friend gatherings. In the garden you'll find a vineyard, an old granary (typical of the Alto Minho), renovated for ornamental purposes, solid wood tables to enjoy meals outdoors in the shade of the vineyard and in a peaceful environment in contact with nature. The villa can operate as local accommodation, with a licence to do so, ensuring seasonal and/or more regular income. Nearby parishes with various local shops and basic services.

The exchange rate on the day you make an offer on your property in Portugal will not be the same as the rate you pay when you complete on your purchase, as currency markets move constantly. Any large rate movements may take it beyond your price range as the chart above illustrates the fluctuation and how much extra your property could have cost you.
The best way to avoid this significant risk is to plan your budget and currency strategy with an experienced currency specialist. They have been known to save you up to 4% compared to many high street banks, £4,000 for every £100,000, which soon adds up. They will also keep you up to date on market movements, help you set a rate in advance with a product called a Forward Contract - so you know exactly what you will pay for your property in sterling.
This is why we recommend Smart Currency Exchange Ltd. If exchange rate movements continue to be as unpredictable and as significant as they have been in the past then by not using Smart Currency Exchange Ltd your property could cost you £11,833 more.
