A typical house of a historical village

The À-da-MiZé house is the realization of a dream. The name is inspired by our own names - Milita and Zé. Here, in the Alentejo, when you go to someone's house, you say "I'm going to my mother's house," hence the name. It was restored between 2020 and 2021, respecting its standards and identity, with the intention of living (one day later) in the center of a small Alentejan village with a close relationship with the neighbors.
