A Encantada is a private artist’s house nestled in the mountains of the Serra do Açor, in central Portugal, surrounded by forests, schist villages and wide-open landscapes. Here, time seems to move differently. At the heart of the house is a 50 m² independent Creative Space. A place to write, draw, paint, photograph, think, experiment or simply let an idea take shape. The openings and terraces bring the mountains into everyday life, while the large covered panoramic terrace offers a peaceful place to work, read or simply pause above the landscape. A Encantada is not a place of constant activity. It is a place for concentration, solitude and creative freedom. A place where mornings can begin slowly, where an unfinished idea can remain on the table, and where changing light, silence and the landscape can become part of the creative process. Artists are invited to find their own rhythm, follow their curiosity and give their work the time and space it needs.
A Encantada is located in the Serra do Açor, in central Portugal, surrounded by mountains, forests and traditional schist villages. The area is particularly peaceful and unspoilt, making it an ideal place to step away from everyday life and focus on a creative project. The house is located in a small rural village and is best reached by car. Having a car is recommended in order to fully enjoy the region and reach the shops and services in the nearby villages. The surrounding area offers many opportunities for walks, exploring nature and discovering traditional villages. But one of the real pleasures of A Encantada is simply staying at home, enjoying the peace and the feeling of being far away from the outside world.
A Encantada is a private house designed to offer peace, privacy and freedom of rhythm. Artists have access to their own living space and to an independent 50 m² Creative Space, as well as the terraces, garden and panoramic terrace with spa. Life here is deliberately simple and quiet. Each person can organise their days according to their own rhythm, work for several hours without being disturbed, enjoy meals peacefully, read, walk or simply let ideas develop. This is not a place where a programme is imposed. The space is here to allow each artist to fully concentrate on their own creative project.
A Encantada is a quiet private home. Guests are expected to respect the house, the neighbours and the peaceful character of the surroundings. No parties or loud gatherings. Quiet hours are from 10 pm to 8 am. Smoking is allowed on the terrace only. Please remove street shoes before entering the house or the terrace.
A Encantada is, above all, a place created by artists to welcome other creatives. We want to preserve its intimate character, so we welcome people who are genuinely engaged in an artistic or creative practice. There is no collective residency structure or fixed programme here: each artist comes with their own project and has a place where they can take the time and space they need to create. The idea is simple: to offer an inspiring environment, while leaving enough freedom for each person to make it their own creative space.
