Description
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.
