Not surprising. There is not much there. The interior of Portugal continues being quite basic and even primitive. Even Coimbra is a forlorn town with plenty of buildings which need to be pulled down for lack of living quality.

Not sure where these prices come from! You can buy habitable property in central Portugal for much less than the prices quoted, around half the price quoted. Sure they are basic, but who wants to live on the Algarve???

Whilst central Portugal does not have the grand facilities of the Algarve, Lisbon or Porto, it nevertheless has the charm and appeal missing in those areas. Who wants more of what they left in their home country? Go central for a more authentic Portugal!

It seems cheap, but it is not. There is a lack of good infrastructure and good craftsmen in the immediate surroundings to renovate or build a house. Apart from the necessary investment, the renovation of poorly insulated houses takes or new house a long, long time.
