House for sale in Alcácer do Sal of 128 m²

3 bedroom house in perfect habitability conditions. ROMAN VILLA OF SANTA CATARINA DOS SÍTIMOS. Identified in 1977 due to the widening of a street in the village of Santa Catarina de Sítimos, it was only in 1986 that it was possible to begin the first excavation work, aimed at defining the archaeological area. The excavations made it possible to discover traces of two occupation centers in this area, which were said to be part of an important Roman villa. It is worth highlighting the identification of a large swimming pool / swimming pool with its staircase to access the interior, which will probably be part of a thermal structure that is exposed at one end of the pool, which allows us to know its real dimensions (20 meters in length x 8.30 meters wide). Archaeological excavations revealed human occupation since the middle of the 1st century BC, which lasted until the 5th/6th centuries. Later, in an Islamic context, we see a human presence still in unclear forms, which happened after the Christian conquest of 1217, giving rise to the currently existing village, whose church is mentioned in the 13th century. For the history alone, it is worth visiting this magnificent village, 8 km from the city of Alcácer do Sal, close to the Pego do Altar Dam and 25 minutes from our famous and magnificent beaches in Comporta. 1 hour from the capital, you can find this wonderful, good-sized villa with magnificent outdoor space and possibility for a swimming pool, garage for 2 cars, and also with open and beautiful views, mainly to the west. I look forward to your visit,
