Description

The Ruin of the Rising Sun emerges as a promise of rebirth in a magnificent setting of 3000 square meters, immersed in the authentic rural ambiance of the Azores. With an area of 180 square meters, this property boasts a unique location, offering a phenomenal view of the sea, the island of São Jorge, and the southeast of the island, providing an idyllic backdrop.

The uniqueness of the Ruin of the Rising Sun is accentuated by the soil's classification as agricultural reserve, which, in turn, limits the possibility of expansion, allowing only the reconstruction of the existing structure. This classification bestows a special status upon the property, signifying that only the natural environment will be its neighbor, thereby preserving the peace and tranquility of the rural setting.

With architecture harking back to the vernacular traditions of the Azores, the Ruin of the Rising Sun stands out with its 180 square meters spread across two floors. Balconies at the ends add an extra charm, providing a space for contemplating the surrounding landscape. Stone details, a wood-fired oven, and a large cistern are elements that characterize and enrich the authenticity of this ruin, representing one of the finest examples of traditional architecture in the region.

Exploring the surrounding area of the Ruin of the Rising Sun, residents have privileged access to pedestrian trails leading to breathtaking landscapes. The strategic location, just 5 minutes from the natural pools of the Piedade and Calheta do Nesquim parish, allows residents to fully enjoy the sea of the Pico Island, immersing themselves in the serenity and natural beauty of the location.

Proximity to the center of the Piedade parish, just 5 minutes away, offers essential amenities for daily life. Butcher, pharmacy, supermarket, and other services are within reach, providing convenience to the residents of the Ruin of the Rising Sun. A 25-minute drive away, the whaling village of Lajes do Pico invites residents to explore the whalers' museum, the most visited on Pico, where the rich history of whaling in the region is preserved and presented.

Fine restaurants in the area allow enthusiasts of local gastronomy to savor authentic dishes while contemplating the stunning views the region offers. The Ruin of the Rising Sun is not just a property; it is an opportunity for revitalization amid the untouched beauty of the Azores. With its traditional architecture, charming details, and a location that offers an escape to nature, this ruin represents not only the past but also the potential for a renewed future in harmony with the stunning landscape of Pico Island. #ref: 110464

The exchange rate on the day you make an offer on your property in Portugal will not be the same as the rate you pay when you complete on your purchase, as currency markets move constantly. Any large rate movements may take it beyond your price range as the chart above illustrates the fluctuation and how much extra your property could have cost you.

The best way to avoid this significant risk is to plan your budget and currency strategy with an experienced currency specialist. They have been known to save you up to 4% compared to many high street banks, £4,000 for every £100,000, which soon adds up. They will also keep you up to date on market movements, help you set a rate in advance with a product called a Forward Contract - so you know exactly what you will pay for your property in sterling.

This is why we recommend Smart Currency Exchange Ltd. If exchange rate movements continue to be as unpredictable and as significant as they have been in the past then by not using Smart Currency Exchange Ltd your property could cost you £4,204 more.
