The property, in need of “urgent” intervention, is located in front of the medieval synagogue in the village of Castelo de Vide, in the district of Portalegre.
“It is a house with a very interesting architectural value, with an important location in the historic centre and maintains the functional spatial distribution of its origin, which makes it very unique,” said mayor António Pita.
The house, which belongs to the Solbrasa Company owned by businessman Fernando Barata, will be acquired for the symbolic value of €1, with the deed of sale scheduled for 6 March.
According to António Pita, the company, when selling the property for the value of €1, “set an example” so that, in the future, other cases of symbolic sales may arise, in the sense that the municipality can recover “little by little” houses in a state of total neglect.
