We were both born and raised in Portugal. The undersigned, Fernando, grew up in Mangualde. In 1977 I came to the Netherlands. The love for Portugal, especially in the middle of Portugal, has only increased since then. I studied at the UvA in the Netherlands and am currently working for the municipality of Almere. Annabel came to the Netherlands in 1975. She is originally from the high north of Portugal. We met in the Netherlands and got married in 2008. Our dream is to definitely return to Portugal within a few years. For this we want to renovate more houses in the vicinity of Mangualde, with our preference for large, stately buildings. We do this not only for ourselves, but also for the city and surroundings. We believe that Mangualde has a lot of potential, especially because of the central location of the city in Portugal. Let us convince you too!

What a great house in a beautiful location. The house is equipped with all comforts. Especially the beautiful large garden with swimming pool at the house is great.

Mangualde is a nice town a few minutes drive away....

What a warm welcome from Fernando and Annabel.
We had arrived much earlier than planned. The cleaning crew was still busy in the house but we could already sit by the pool and get delicious watermelon, ice creams and drink...

Definitely recommended and we...
