ranch and country estate
you might prefer country place instead of country estate, if the sitio is smallish and used more as a casual weekend retreat

in Brazil - \'sítio\' is nothing more than a \'weekend retreat\' - a house in the country/second home...
fazenda = farm [could be cattle ranch/commercial plantation/ ....] varies.. :)

: sitio is a small farm, not a 'weekend retreat'; 'chácara' might be a weeken retreat

I know people/lots in fact who have sítios/chácaras - call them by both names... neither necessarily 'functional in nature'..I agree sítio tends to be more often functional and chácara not...'rural property' covers both .. yes??

in the cattle country in the western part of the state of São Paulo anything under 1000 'alqueires' is considered a 'sitio'You have to have more than 1000 'alqueires' to have a 'fazenda'
