About this property
19th-century ruin with three volumes, Lajes do Pico - 1,079 m2 urban land
A Ruína Solarenga - three volumes of traditional Pico architecture in the parish of São João, Lajes do Pico, Azores. 211 m2 of built area over two floors, on 1,079 m2 of land classified in its entirety as urban land to be consolidated. Sea views from the upper floor.
Plainly stated: This is a rebuild, not a renovation. No roof, no floors, one collapsed section of wall, and vegetation has taken hold inside - with mature trees rooted in the structure, whose removal belongs in the budget from day one.
What survives is what matters: The basalt masonry, the stone surrounds with lintels and jambs intact, the stone platforms, the cistern and the wood-fired oven. The regulations require architectural elements of value to be safeguarded - the character of the house is protected by law.
The land is the other half of the deal. The Lajes do Pico municipal plan allows a site coverage of up to 50%, meaning some 540 m2 of building footprint over two floors. And with a minimum plot size of 500 m2, the land can be divided into two plots. All subject to planning consent.
Mains water, electricity and fibre-optic internet in the street. Septic tank, as everywhere on Pico, where there is no public sewer.
The land registry records 1931, the year of entry; the architecture places construction in the early nineteenth century.
