Villa in Horta, Faial

Property with high appreciation potential, currently comprising a 79sqm ruin and an approved project for the construction of a detached family home with 173.90sqm of private gross area.
The future home will offer stunning views over Pico Island and the Atlantic Ocean.
The house will be built on an urban plot of 577sqm, surrounded by an extensive rustic area of approximately 9,000sqm with an approved project allowing construction to begin immediately.

Located at one of the highest and most prestigious elevations in the city of Horta, in Espalamaca, this project, designed by architects Filipe Guedes Cruz and Marco Charters Monteiro, was conceived to embrace an uninterrupted panoramic view. The house is strategically positioned on the hillside, ensuring excellent southern and southeastern sun exposure and a perfect visual alignment with the Faial Pico Channel and the silhouette of Pico Island.
The Heart of the Home: Space and Transparency
The interior architecture prioritizes continuity and spaciousness. The main living floor features a 70sqm social area, where the living room and kitchen are integrated into a fluid and generous space. Large glazed openings create a seamless connection between the interior and exterior, making the natural landscape the central element throughout the day.
The Suite and the Horizon
