- Another day, another village! I am Eileen from Two Rivers where I showcase different properties in Portugal. This time I went to Avô to view a house that was for sale. While I was there I explored the beautiful river and town.

Nice Place
Just beautiful area, great presentation. Big Like ♥
thankyou very much 😁☀️☀️
Love your channel! Great house
thankyou!!!
Real Nice.
thanks! 😁
I love the village and the views from the house are spectacular! The house seems really well maintained.
You are right, the house was very well maintained and the village is such a nice place. Thankyou for watching!
@@tworiversprojects Avo looks more populated than Santa Ovaia. Santa Ovaia feels like most of the houses are vacant/abandoned. I would think that being in the valley is not only more damp in the winter but less breezy. The valley may have as much as a 2 week early frost date and a 2 week later frost free date. The home is lovely with lovely views however, Are there still sheep bells and lovely donkey friends?
The video is lovely, Eileen. Thank you! I am glad you are looking at a well maintained property that has a great contribution in meeting your basic needs so that you can spend more energu with your passions for exploring beautiful sites, gardening & animals.
First: This woman is absolutely BEAUTIFUL! OK, that's out of the way. Secondly: It looks so peaceful there! I mean....wow! I'm wondering if she is actually looking for a place to stay or if she is just showing places that are available. Also, I was surprised at how well the real estate ladies spoke English. Is this common there? What is the cost of living compared to say, Mexico? And how much would a house like that cost there? I know these are a lot of questions, so I'll ask just this last one: when you live that far out, how do you get around (transportation wise) and where do you go for things like utilities, grocery, medical care, etc? I'm just discovering this channel today, so I apologize if some of these questions have already been addressed. Loving the show.
Oooh my, your comment has just popped up. But I will respond nevertheless. First all, thankyou 😊 I am doing both actually, but I am not in a rush myself, so now I am dedicating my time to show every one whats around here. A lot of real estate agents speak English indeed, since there is a big international market. I have no clue what the cost of living in Mexico is so I won't be able to compere. They where asking 100k euros for this house. If you live in place like these you do need a car, if you have a car supermarkets, farmacy etc are close by. A little late, but hope I have answerd you questions :)
@@tworiversprojects Yes! Thank you! 🥰😍🥰😍
The furniture is very stylish, I agree. The views are nice, very traditional house. Happy house hunting!
Glad to hear the furniture also suits you taste. Thankyou!
Eileen awesome video as usual. So informative with the details that effect living conditions like the cloud cover causing damp,.... That water was soooo beautiful and clear and I looovved the tile in the bathroom too. Are you thinking of buying the house? If so great luck, i hope you get it. If not and you can tell us the price if you pass on it? Thanx for another great video.
Hello, thankyou! Its a lovely place isn't it? The house already got sold to somebody, I don't know for what price, but the asking price was €100,000. Glad to know that it is going to make someone very happy :)
Beautiful terraces and the house is in great condition
I was also suprised about the good condition of the house, nice to see something like that in the midst of all the ruins right!
Enjoy your videos, maybe share the costs listed for the homes you tour in videos to get examples of costs in the areas. Thank you.
asking price was 100k euros, but it has been sold :)
Gorgeous views ,that house is very nice ,needs painting etc but what a treasure,anc gif surf enough land gif vegetable gardening ,verg nice
🙏🏼😁
Hi Eileen I just saw your first video moments ago and watched second video..Now you have another subscribers 😀....Great videos and best wishes...Asef from London
haha thankyou for watching and subscribing! Greetings 😄
Hello Elaine great videos house is fantastic and the village thank you :)
Hello, thankyou for your support, glad you liked it!
@@tworiversprojects noworries its all good hooked now 👌🍻
Já passei férias em Avô, o sítio é lindo com uma praia fluvial muito boa. A casa está boa, só precisa de ser aberta para secar e de uma pintura, exterior e interior, com boas tintas. Tudo depente do preço.
Que bom teres passado férias em Avô! Tem razão, a casa precisa de algumas pequenas actualizações, mas está em bom estado. Tenha um bom dia!
Ah, good to know that low lying fog adds a great deal of moisture to the valleys. That house has been maintained nicely for the most part and is certainly move-in ready with potential for more development on the ground floor.
Yes the house was definitely in great shape, no moisture and no rotten wood, so that was nice to see!
Bela vila, obrigado, a ver se visito 🙂
Muito obrigada!
Good jee video
thankyou!
Perdao mas; Essas flores nao sao rosas, sao Camelias. Beautiful flowers.
ahhh, estava a pensar que tipo de flores eram essas, obrigada!
Some people enjoy making a tea from them.
Agree the 'praias fluviais' are much nicer, cleaner and less crowded. It's so funny, just found your posts. You speak perfect Portuguese but also have a strong Dutch accent when you speak your perfect English. Really, wish you luck and happiness my dear, X:)
hahah yes, I guess because I still speak a lot of Dutch on a daily basis. Thankyou for the support!!
Actually…it’s perfect Irish English….this young lady has roots from the world tree…
Be aware because kids fill this small river beaches in the summer, they have their grandparents live in this small villages/cities, like when i was a kid in a small village outside Lamego i spent all my summer holidays (half of July, August and half of September) in my grandparents house. Every morning i helping my grandparents in the farm, but after lunch (always soup and fruit) we go to the river beaches with all the kids, i love to leave my Parents in Odivelas (close of Lisbon) and spent my summer holidays there, my cousins from Porto, Tavira always spent the summer there, my grandparents love their grandchildren, we help in the farm and go to forest or to the river beach in the afternoon...
My first wife was a girl live in Lisbon and spent their summer holidays there to.
Only when i start University i dont go anymore spent my summer there, i start in the summer go to Algarve (my uncle house) to win extra money lots of turists to help pay the tuition and the books i need.
Sorry my broken english...
I felt that parts of the house were quite small but had potential Eileen is a Irish name so who please gave you this ok ok so its all a year ago but your videos i like so i will watch them all keep safe my love.
💖
What a beautiful valley! I liked the house and furniture. There is some good view but it is unfortunate that the other house is blocking much of it. Is the house heated? Could be very cold in winter if not.
Thanks for taking us on the tour. 🙂
Alex
I'm glad you like it! And yes, if we could move that building it would be even better, but still some nice views. If I remember correctly the house has a fireplace in the kitchen. Thankyou for watching :)
You would improve viewing if you give price in video and link to agent in description. I understand this is about your search for somewhere to live as a consequence you may not want to rule out the possibility if one of your viewers then rented or bought a property you are serious about.
The pink flower evergreen shrub is a Camelia. Rose belonging to Rosaceae family, Camellia belong to Theaceae, rose has opposite leaves and prickles, camellia has alternate leaves and no prickles, rose like the sun, camellia likes it in the shade.
That was indeed my reasoning for this house ;) Will put the link in the description. Thanks for the info on the flowers 🌺

Hi Eileen! Love your videos, keep it up! Im also from well "all over the world" currently living in Germany but hoping to make the move to Portugal in 2023. Looked at a few properties in Castelo Branco area but it is a bit too warm for me in the summer months. How is it over there where you are living?
Hi there, thankyou very much! Cool that you are planning on coming here, is Portugal also one of your roots? I have not been in Castelo Branco so I couldn’t say, maybe the Coimbra district is more for you? Good luck to you!
@@tworiversprojects Actually Portuguese is one of the few roots I don't have, but I love the people and the weather there. And thanks for the recommendation I will be sure to check Coimbra district as well. :) I know there is quite a "off-grid" community in the Castelo Branco region which for me is also important as it might get too lonely otherwise.
The whole country is pretty hot in the summer months. If you antecipate problems with too much heat, look for areas in the northwest, Minho region. Though hot in the summer, it has much more shade, it's lush green, not dried up as the center and south of the country.
Very nice house. The rose and the hibiscus were beautiful. I wonder what services are there in the Village.
thankyou! what kind of services are you looking for?
@@tworiversprojects supermarket, restaurants, medical center or hosputal nearby, yhat kind of things,
💕
thankyou for your support! :)
Love the house & the furniture! 😉.. good luck & Hapi adventures 💫
I would like it if you went to the village of Múceres next to Campo de Besteiros. There is a strange and cheap property with an orange orchard. What is your opinion about it? It is sold by Terra dos Rios, so you could use your Dutch...
Interesting, I will do some research!
Hoi Eileen, je videos zijn leuk. Ik volg je sinds vandaag en ben nu al fan van je. Je doet voornamelijk in de regio Coimbra je videos maken? Ik ken alleen de stad Coimbra, erg mooi, maar ken de omgeving nog niet
Ik volg veel uit de regio Castelo Branco. Ik kijk uit naar je volgende videos. Groetjes
Hoi Roald, leuk om te horen dankjewel! Ik ben nu inderdaad vooral regio Coimbra aan het bekijken maar wil op een gegeven moment ook andere regios onderzoeken. Castello Branco ken ik bijvoorbeeld nog niet. Maar thanks voor het volgen, tot de volgende video ;)
I have been following your channel and have been wondering about the properties you have been sharing online. I have a question indirectly related to the properties. How is the land in these hill stations?
I asked because similar areas with similar climates and atmospheres here in our country, or I can say hill stations like these in my country, have a very big issue with landslides due to heavy rain and moisture in the soil, and this dampness in the soils and the atmosphere makes the whole house very damp, due to which paint hardly stays on the walls and the ceilings.
Hi there, we have had an abnormal amount of rain the last period which have caused a few landslide situations across the country. So that is something to take into account, although as I said, that is not really the norm here. Not all the houses in Portugal are wel insulated so moist can be an issue.
It would be nice to mention how much they are asking for this property and others. Thxs for the video
The asking price is 100k, if you would like more info you can send me an email at tworiversprojects@gmail.com. Thanks for watching!
Fantaseren for liiiiiife dat ik ooit de kans krijg om zo te wonen🥹
Je kan in ieder geval bij mij langs komen!!
I never been in avo^ but l think l could drink water from that river and stay alive , l believe !
hahah yes it looks tempting
Why do they have a fireplace in the kitchen ? I have seen this before in many houses in portugal.
I think it is because generally most time would be spend in the kitchen. But I actually will ask around why that is 😃
Love the camellas❤
😇🌸
Eileen, I have just retired and would like to relocate to potugal. What was the price of this property? Were the villagers friendly?
Wanting to know how much as well
Want to know the price me too
Hi there, the people are very friendly, you can send me an email for information on the property: tworiversprojects@gmail.com
How much were they asking for this property and is it still available?
They where asking €100.000, I wil ask the realtor if its still available
Hi , so how much does it cost finally ?
Hi there, the asking price is €100k, if you want more info you can send me an info at tworiversprojects@gmail.com
Preços pelo menos eu não ouvi? É para comprar ou arrendar?
100k euros, mas já foi vendida

haha yes, I realised after making this video that I have been calling my Portuguese Grandma 'Grandad' my whole life, oops 😅😋
@@tworiversprojects lol

Need to know the price each time

Não são rosas. São camélias!
Não sabia, obrigada!
Bom dia! I live in central Portugal near Oliveria do Hospital. I think it is extraordinarily beautiful. It’s so cool that you are sharing the area! I’ve seen other CZcamsrs in Portugal but not specifically where I live! How fun! Do you have an Instagram or TikTok? Obrigada
Hi there, how nice that you are living in this beautiful area already. And thanks for enjoying my video’s ;) I don’t have a other social media account apart from youtube. What would you like to say on lets say a instagram/tiktok account? Obrigada!
