House for sale in Ponta Delgada, Portugal

Large centenary "quinta", with an active pineapple plantation in full production, with a scenic viewpoint originally built to watch the boats arriving at the harbour of Ponta Delgada, and with a fantastic and unobstructed view of the ocean, the city of Ponta Delgada, and overlooking the whole surroundings. The house is originally from the 19th century, but was renovated in the 21st century with the rehabilitation of the structure with reinforced concrete, while still maintaining different original details with visible basalt stone, as well as the exterior facade with the 19th century architecture of the local "quintas". The interior rooms are very spacious, with a more formal living and dining room with very high ceilings and several full height windows with access to a front terrace and unobstructed views of the ocean and Ponta Delgada. With 5 bedrooms in total, 3 of which have built-in wardrobes, this house has space for family and friends, and it is also complemented with another house originally built to house the groundskeeper, that can now be used as a guest house to provide more privacy to you and your guests. The exterior consists of a wall area surrounding the house, for more private use, with gardens and car parking area, as well as storage and a porch area for outside socializing. Outside this area, there is the farm area itself, with a total of 8 glass greenhouses with pineapple production, as well as a stone scenic viewpoint, a structure that is classified as cultural and historical heritage. The rest of the land, with independent access also from the back, is currently composed of several sections divided by basalt stone walls, with the interior of each being used for grazing, allowing for a huge variety of future uses. Due to its location, views, history and outdoor space, this property has all the characteristics that make it perfect to be used as a private home with a complementary installation of a touristic project, whether for accommodation or exploration of the farm for its historical and traditional pineapple plantation features. You can also dedicate the full property completely to tourism, creating here a tourist farm with a lot of peace and quietness, excellent views, traditional and historical experiences, and with excellent accessibilities to Ponta Delgada and other points of touristic interest due to its centrality on the island.
