Hi there! I am Joseph.
I have been an immigrant / expat living in central Portugal along with my beautiful girlfriend Mariana for six years now.
Together Mariana, my father Clinton and myself, would like to show you a bit of the daily goings on around our Portuguese farm / homestead / smallholding and all of the work we are doing whilst renovating, starting building projects, working with our livestock, DIY and trying to grow our little families own food!
In this episode we welcome you to join us in mid summer time as we are given a tour around a bargain farm house, which is for sale, in a rural mountain village in central Portugal.
We start the virtual tour by introducing ourselves as we explain the location of this wonderful gem of a farm and a little about the surroundings and local amenities.
We begin by walking up the long private shingle track. The first thing that can be seen as you walk down the track is the spectacular views looking down into the valley, which surround the property.
We firstly check out the ruin itself, which of course needs a complete interior renovation. This is fairly easily achieved though and I know of many contractors and specialists who can help in this project, the builders I know of are all local people who give a fair days work for honest pay and I have personally seen a lot of their works.
Once we got inside the xisto ruin we see that the building has been used as an adega, or winery, and all the primary fermenters and oak cask secondary fermenters can still be seen, as well as a few bottles which still have drink inside them!
Upstairs we see that the condition of the roof is not bad, perhaps I would consider new rafters, although they really are not in that bad condition. The size of the ruin is small but can be extended if required. The current size would work well for a couple on their own who do not require a massive house.
After the house we checked out the terraces that are right by the house, they make for a nice sized garden with water sources and fruit trees. Enough space for some chickens and a vegetable patch. The property itself does not require a lot of regular maintenance due to the forestry section not needed hardly any work throughout the year, just chopping of wood for your own wood burner.
After we had seen everything on the property we took a short walk to the praia fluvial, or freshwater swimming beach in the local village. There is a spot to swim and fish and also a separate spot where you can sit waterside and buy ice cold drinks, we were very grateful for this on this scorching day, I say and had a nice refreshing beer and Mariana had a cola, before returning back to our own farm.
Upon arriving back at our own farm we decided to whip up some lunch, dourada (gilt head sea bream) com malagueta, tomato and wine sauce was on the menu for us today. It was absolutely spectacular and I highly recommend trying this menu!
After lunch we took a walk up to the top of the farm with Chloe, up to the sheep pastures. We checked the pigeons and spoke for a while about everything that had gone on this week on the farm.
Have an amazing week everybody and I look forward to seeing you all again next week!

And Chloe is going to win the prize for the cutest most gorgeous little farmer of all ❤️
So sweet to see her grow
That was one gorgeous house I think I am falling in love with Portugal thank you both
I’ve only seen 2 1/2 minutes and I already want to visit. I am visiting Portugal in August. Muito Obrigada. If I were financially independent right now I would take this land sale. 40,000 euros is an amazing price.
IT'S WONDERFUL TO SEE CHLOE EVOLUTION, I'M HAPPY, WHEN I START WALKING NO ONE STOP IT! TAKE CARE OF THE POOL.
Another dream property, thanks for sharing. Chloe is growing up fast, your going to have your hands full from now on ! 👍🏽😎
Oh Joseph and Mariana, that house in the middle of the woods just looks like it came out of a fairytale ❤️
Just gorgeous, wish I could buy it, but thanks for showing us anyway
Another beautiful video
Thank you Celia! I love it, it is gorgeous!
I agree, Celia.
It looks to me like a prime candidate for a flash flood. Beautiful and exciting and check your escape route.
Hi, I just stumble upon your vids great job! I love the drone shots it really makes clear how the plot is shaped. Because personally I think thats very important depending on the use of the land.
Hi Tom, thank you so much! Yeah, the drone gives a different aspect, makes it easier to see 😁
@@Farmerforfun
I agree, I love the outline of the property too, it helps a lot.
Loved your bream dish. Colourful, healthy, spicy and a dish I try to cook myself! Thanks for sharing Joseph
Thank you so much Mike! I am so glad you liked it my friend! Thank you for the wonderful feedback, much love!
Hi Hello Joseph and Mariana. How are you? Today is a perfect day to smile. Have a wonderful day. A great show. Your family is a peaceful and great family in the world. Your videos are very interesting. Best of luck with the good time. Congratulations
Thank you so much Conclavious! Much love to you today and always! Joseph and Mariana
As a (now retired) builder here in the UK...if I could turn the clock back even 20yrs how I would have loved to purchase that cottage and refurbish it to it's wonderful potential....very nice spot to live a life of peace and quiet..
Hi Joe & Mariana , lovely vidio of property, loved your fish meal looked so delicious , so lovely to see our beautiful little Chloe bless her growing up so fast, take care , love to you all XX💕💕
Chloe is such a little angel, a real show stealer. Loved the food as usual, liked the farm, but is it in an area with high fire risk ?
Hi Edwin! No it is not, it is in a largely fruit agricultural area, which mean high irrigation and the run off from the mountain keeps things quite green here year round, it is the drier areas that are a problem
That is good to know Joseph, thanks for the feedback 😀 👍
@@Eding4u take a look at the video and make your own conclusions… a house in the middle of eucaliptus and pines, most of Portugal is prone to fires if you add the fact that there are no neighbours around…
@@joaquimgarcia3502 l wouldn't give you $4 for it.
I’m sorry but those trees will explode with fire! I know, I live here. Just look at it!
Chloe is so adorable! You have a lovely family. Thank you for sharing with us!
You are such a likable lad!! Greetings from a Mexican living now in Portugal (previously lived in Mexico, Brazil and Exeter, UK). Cheers.
Awwwh, thank you so much, that is so kind! Much love my dear friend!
I'm new to your channel. Love it!!! Very enjoyable as well as educational. I also enjoy the way you break each video down into segments. We must have 500+ TV channels. Half a dozen of them (at least!) are food and cooking channels. Your camera work around the cooking food is as good as any that I've seen. So good on you!!! And the real estate is very interesting as I am a potential buyer. So with that I have one simple request. If possible, along with the price, let us know the property taxes and zoning situation as these are vitally important tidbits of data. For instance, can I build outbuildings for a little homestead/family farm? And a new residence in the center of the property? Just a few extra basics would be appreciated. And with that I will say many, many thanks to you for your efforts.
Another super video, Joe. Wonderful to see Mariana and beautiful little Chloe… growing so fast! ❤️
Love the fairytale cottage and location too!
Thank you so much aunt Den!!!! Much love!
What an amazing life you have. Beautiful wife and the cutest baby ever. I retire in Aug and the property on offer would suit me down to a T
Another georgeous video!!! Love to see Mariana less shy in front of the camera!!!! Thanks so much....
Thank you so much Joseph, yeah, she is really coming out of her shell, isnt she?!
@@Farmerforfun u 2 are such great couple... u compliment each other!!!
Another fantastic video Joseph. Really enjoyed watching. A beautiful little cottage, peaceful and gorgeous views. Your recipes are always mouthwatering too. Of course Chloe is the star of the show. What a sweetheart. Time goes so quickly, she will be running rings around you before you know it. Take care in the heat. X 😎☀️👍
Oh Chloe is so sweet. Your farm is beautiful Joseph. Thanks for sharing. You all take care from Cape Cod Massachusetts USA
Bless you Charlene, thank you for watching!! Much love
Chloe's next words will be 'like' and 'subscribe'. ;)
Hahahhaa, too right Stephen!!! Much love!
well done, im really happy that you feel at home in Portugal
great video Joseph, how i love the way you live there. Chloe is growing so fast, looks like a little angel, greetings from Holland
Thank you so much Tina, she really is a delightful little girl, hehe! Much love!
You fish dish looked so yummy! It was nice to see your two ladies. Chloe is getting so big and is do darling.
You are a very special family ❤️👑🌱 blessed x
That was such a beautiful stone building! I would think my car either wouldn't make it up, or wouldn't stop going down.... and was that a huge cliff on one side of the property, or is it a field? Thank you! Mariana is so beautiful, and your daughter is cute! I hope you all live long happy healthy lives with lots of wealth!
Chloe looks so cute with her pink bow 😊 You can see that her attention was on the floor … so much area to crawl and explore.. hahaha 🤣
The stone cottage and it’s surrounding is so picturesque. It’s like a beautiful painting !!! 👍 👍
Thanks for another enjoyable video, Joseph!!! Cheers !!! 😃
This is gorgeous. We’re in Spain at the moment as my parents need me a lot more these days. But I’m thinking of Portugal for the future to build or buy and build / renovate our dream country home and farm. Subscribed for reference if we ever make the move over.
Another lovely video! The family looks happy and healthy, the farm is in good shape, the food looks delicious, life is good.
I just found Your channel. I love this property!! Would love to buy it or something like it!! It's been a year I'm sure this has been sold by now. I'll be in touch!!
Wonderful. I can't think of a property that has my name on it more than this. I've had this property in my saved wish list for a while. It would be perfect for me as single man & his dog with a complete desire to be nowhere near another human being! I want complete an utter isolation from humans.
Thank you for uploading this. Hope you and Mariana (soon to be wife?) are doing well and of course your little angel Chloe. All the best my friend from a slightly mild 30degrees London.
Thank you Joseph, and Mariana of course, once again for a great video. I wish that i had the money for the farm you showed, right up my street, however, not just yet. Your cooking segment is always great, maybe a second channel for the recipes ?. All the best to you and yours.
My goodness that food looked absolutely delicious 😋 Chloe is adorable 🤗
Time to start planning for a channel for Chloe. "Growing up in the farm." Forte abraço.
Your daughter is absolutely adorable.
thanks folks for sharing this. be blessed xxx
Wow! Chloe’s so smart!❤
So beautiful!
Awww your little girl is growing up so fast, I've missed seeing your videos, take care 🥰🥰🥰
Bless you Jayne! Thank you so much!
Amaizing life farm life.🤓🏝🏝🏝💖
❤❤❤❤❤ beautiful just so beautiful
Lovely cottage and video, really enjoyed your meal prep and the share of plate and glass lol
Thank you...sweet fish lunch.....enjoy your vids very much...keep on keeping on!!!👨🌾🤨👨🌾
Thank you so much Michael! I love dourada cooked like this, it is sublime! Much love!
I love this channel, just subscribed 😊
Bless you and thank you so much!!!
Chloe is so cute. Enjoy these moments because before you know it she will be all grown up. I'm speaking from experience lol. Do you speak to her in English or Portuguese? Stay safe. Cheers
Thanks for your vid 😇💟💟💟 Love you all.
Tell me more about the water mine @ 12:30 please. I love the idea of running the land as it should be or would be taking water away from the trees/forest? Love your videos. Patrick
This is my favorite !!!!!!
This place is just lovely. I've just applied for a new job if I get it I'll start saving and buy a place like this to retire too 😊
Love it! Good luck with your new job!!!! :D
Awesome video. Tell us more about the wine and vineyard. Have a great week.
Really good vidio Joseph. You are all looking very well 👍 enjoy watching you family flourish 😉
Lovely baby. Congratulations.
Thankyou for sharing. Chloe is so cute.
Beautiful building and location. My concern would be no topsoil for cultivation - I would want to create more terraces and if possible to obtain at reasonable cost import topsoil.
Is it possible to extend the size of the building for habitation?
Hi Noddy, the terraces have decent soil, it is only the forest section that is more shingle, but easily, easily ammended like you said with some soil added :D The house can be extended too!
Love it! Love your family! And really enjoy learning about the farm and farming, and ALSO the cooking bits too!
So happy to find your channel. Btw...i was looking but didnt see credits for the music, im especially looking for the piece used for your cooking segment. What's the band and song? I feel like I know this band (are they from Boston or the East Coast US?) and the name is on the tip of my tongue but can't place it. Help! Thank you!
Hallo Joseph. What I didnt understand yet: is the sheep farm included? Are there two buildings to live in beside the winery? Thank You You and Cheers.
Lovely!
Adorable 🥰
Very nice. What kind of fish did you use to cook the delicious dinner!!!
It was gilt head sea bream! Very nice too!
Thank you for the wonderful video, especially including your family and farm section. The stone cottage property is quite special. Too bad for me that the cottage is a total ruin on the inside. Someone will turn it into a jewel.
que se lixem as cerejas...venha uma vindima para curtir um bom vinho,abraço
Another great video Joeseph!
Thank you Jonny, looking forward to seeing you soon!
Can't wait!! See you soon 😁👍
Great video! Absolutely love the schist. One question that might seem odd- I am a practicing Catholic and was curious if the churches in the small villages still have Mass or does one have to travel to attend?
It depends on the number of inhabitants who live in a small village. Sometimes you have to go to the next town to attend mass.
@@anaramos2802 - thank you very much for the reply Ana. Do many Portuguese people still attend Mass?
Lovely property! Is it sold yet?
What do you keep the Pigeons for? 22:00
I'm just curious, thanks! 🙂
For meat, I am self sufficient in poultry and a few other things :D
@@Farmerforfun Oh wow! I didn't realise you could eat pigeons! Very interesting! Thanks for the reply, I'm really enjoying your videos by the way! I'm thinking about making a move to Portugal myself some time in the next couple of years, so watching you and other CZcamsrs doing similar things is incredibly helpful. Thanks again. 🙂
Lovely house. Looking something like that. Less land. Do Portugal do Rent to know?. Thank you
Omg it’s so beautiful
I’m interested in taking a closer look ….. what’s the nearest airport?
What restrictions are there for expanding existing buildings on a property like this? And additional buildings such as stables, maybe an indoor arena, cottage for guests?
I am back in Portugal living the dream again until I have to go to the UK to do some teaching. This life is so low stress. Check out owner financing folks.
nice haircut Joseph 😃
Hahaha, thank you Sam!!! Much love!
Nice.
We've been seeing lots of stories about the heatwaves and the fires.
You guys ok?
Yeah, they are not anywhere near us. We are in a largely fruit producing area, heavily irrigated and being on the mountain there is oodles of water, its drier areas that lack water that suffer
With the fars with ruins, is there a law in Portugal about building elsewhere on the property? Or do you need to rebuild the ruin? Would there be an issue extending the ruin? Seems like some properties don't allow building new housing?
Sorry lots of questions.
Oh I so love that little farm! (but would be so so worried about forrest fires!)
I want to move to the places in the Northern part of Portugal that you have shown in many videos you have.
Is their some way to get in contact with you or do you have a property site to recommend for the northern part?
Kind regards.
Just saw the mail in the video!
Is this property still for sale. Do you have idea about how much it would cost to fix it.
Chloe is getting big don't blink or she will be in school it happens too fast I loved when my girls were little. And now my grandchildren are her age...it seems like yesterday they were toddler's.
Chloe is too cute!
We are having a heat wave of 101f in Tennessee USA 🇺🇸
Is this like Spain. Change of use to residential at an absolute fortune ? If not its a good buy.
These properties in Portugal have a type of 'grandfather right' for habitation, they need to be pre 1951, google it for more detailed info :D
Stunning is not the word I would use.
If you don’t like it I would highly suggest not buying it 😊
Random newbie question is it easy to get internet (for work) in a place as remote as this? Would it need to be satellite? If anyone knows thank you!!
Hello there!
I use a 4g box and it works fine for CZcams uploading, smart tv and everything else we use 😊
England hit 40° thus year too
Now that you're living here don't forget to learn our language.Be careful with our food, IT IS SO SO GOOD, IT IS BY FAR ONE OF THE BEST IN THE WORLD.😁😁😁
Completely agree Carlos! I have been here eight years, got myself a Portuguese wife and now I have a Portuguese daughter… Already speak the language pretty decently and I think all immigrants coming here should try their best to learn the language! I was skinny when I first arrived in portugal, good food and good wine put an end to my skinny days hahaha!! Much love my friend!
Can this be knocked down and a bigger property built?
Yes, to 250m2
@@Farmerforfun would they do a deal subject to planning?
Subbed
Vcs são portugueses?
Ola Ines! Nao, sou Ingles, mas minha esposa e minha filha sao! Grande abracos!
Hi, do you have anything close to Lisbon?
I'm wondering if there'd be an opportunity for terracing down the hillside, or is the forest protected.
Yeh I'd be interested to know this too?
Let's hope the forest is protected.
hi is this one still available? thx
Lovely moonshine shed ,, i like
Hi, is this still available? thanks
Habitation licence? We didnt get to see the river that borders the land?
I always advertise properties with legal ability to be lived in, unless specifically otherwise stated by myself
Does it have a habitation license??
Is this for sale???
Could perhaps talk about property tax
Is it still for sale..
Hi Keith!
Yes it is, message me on farmerforfun@outlook.com
