Solar Simas Cardoso – Historic Manor with Exceptional Potential for a 4★ Superior Hotel or Thermal Resort

The Solar Simas Cardoso is an 18th‑century baroque manor house and a classified Monument of Public Interest, recognized as the most imposing noble residence in Cabeço de Vide, featuring neoclassical tiles and historically valuable interiors. The property covers approximately 12,000 m² of land and around 7,000 m² of built area, including gardens, pool, and expandability potential. Currently operating as a residential unit with restaurant, bar and event spaces, it also benefits from an independent bar already in operation on site. Located just minutes from the Sulfúrea Thermal Baths, known since Roman times for the therapeutic qualities of their sulphurous waters—highly sought for respiratory, osteoarticular and dermatological treatments—this location guarantees steady, long‑stay demand throughout the year. With its scale, setting and historic character, the estate offers exceptional conditions for conversion into a 4‑star superior hotel or thermal resort with 90 to 120 rooms, potentially supported by an exclusive operating concession for the thermal facilities. A financial study indicates annual returns above 17%, with an estimated EBITDA between €2.3M and €2.6M and a projected payback of 6.5 to 8.5 years when optimized. This is a unique opportunity for hotel groups seeking a flagship thermal destination combining heritage, exclusivity and high long‑term profitability
