About this property
Casa para férias em família, com segurança!
Antiga casa dos canteiros que construíram a Barragem de Salamonde, situada no aldeamento da EDP da Barragem de Salamonde.
A casa foi totalmente reconstruída, com 1 quarto suíte, 2 quartos e 1 quarto de banho comum; sala comum com cerca de 36 m2 com ligação a deck exterior em madeira com cerca de 30 m2 com churrasco e mesa exterior; vistas para a barragem e Parque Nacional; cozinha equipada, aquecimento central a lenha e piscina exterior privativa, em madeira (implantação em curso - a foto é do modelo a ser instalado)
A barragem de Salamonde é a única da zona não navegável por barcos de recreio por estar integrada no Parque Nacional da Peneda-Gerês e onde se situa uma entrada (por Fafião).
O Aldeamento da EDP da Barragem de Salamonde foi construído no início da década de 1950, tem cerca de 30 casas, na sua maioria rehabilitadas, e tem cerca de 4 hectares, com caminhos e percursos da época. Está na fronteira do Parque Nacional Peneda-Gerês o que lhe confere a tranquilidade necessária para uma estadia repousante e o acesso a passeios de reconhecimento das belezas naturais existentes

About the host
Hosted by Alexandre Carreira
I bought the house to rebuild it at our taste; we think the result is very satisfactory and we love our second home! We tried the house-renting when we went to Paris and we felt it would be a great way to use our second home and, with the earnings, keep on improving it. And we see it is working fine. This year and mostly because of Covid, we decided to put our own private pool, and we purchased a wooden pool, 6 x 4 m and 1,2 deep. It will be installed around this April to be ready for summer. Come and enjoy it too!
Why they chose this property
The electrical company who owns the dam, the power central and the village where the workers lived decided to sell the whole village in 1992 as the workers didn't need to live there anymore. We assembled a group of families that bought the whole village, and we were part of that group. Since then, 28 years after, we rebuild the house, the lovely surroundings have been recovered making that village a live example of how it was the way of life back in the 1950', year of the construction of the dam.
What makes this property unique
We love everything around the house and the village itself! The nature around allows us to relax and recharge our batteries.
