Welcome to this magnificent property located in the heart of the stunning island of São Miguel, in the Azores, in a quiet and serene area of the village of Povoação.
Surrounded by the purest nature that characterizes São Miguel, the property offers an exuberant view of the majestic mountains and the endless sea. With a total area of over 13,000m², this property has a rich history dating back to 1907, when it was originally built by a wealthy family returning from Brazil. Known as Casa das Irmãs, it served as an educational center for children under the direction of a religious congregation.
Imbued with nostalgia, this property holds a special place in the hearts of the inhabitants of Lomba do Botão, many of whom keep memories of their first steps in school, baptisms and weddings in the charming chapel that once adorned the house.
With a 5-star rating from the Azores Tourism Authorities, this Rural Tourism licensed Farmhouse has been carefully rebuilt and renovated to offer an authentic local experience, with exceptional service, as evidenced by the impressive Booking score.
Upon entering, you will discover five themed rooms, three of them with private bathrooms and two with shared bathrooms, all equipped with central air conditioning for maximum comfort. The cosy living-dining room, adorned with a wood-burning stove, serves as the focal point for the various rooms in the house. All exterior doors and windows are made of aluminium with double glazing, preserving the traditional lines. The kitchen is a true masterpiece, with the original basalt stone floor, which exudes rustic charm and timeless elegance. Adding even more charm is a captivating wood-fired oven, evoking a bygone era when meals were prepared with love and dedication. As you explore further, you will be fascinated by the original basalt arches and the elegant staircase on the ground floor, which offers a heritage atmosphere to the entire space. Currently used as a storage area, the ground floor offers enormous potential, providing space to transform into an extraordinary home, limited only by your imagination. Step away from the main building and discover a secluded suite that promises a private oasis. This exclusive sanctuary features a serene private garden, creating an idyllic retreat in which to relax and gaze.
Outside, a charming courtyard invites you to enjoy the vast green landscape, while the little ones have fun in the playground. The property has small farms adorned with fruit trees such as bananas, strawberries, avocados and more. Don't forget to say hello to the friendly animals, such as chickens, goats, turkeys, ducks and the adorable pet: the donkey Chico!
To top it off, the house is sold with all furniture included (except personal items) and has a consolidated position on booking platforms, making it an excellent opportunity for those looking to continue the business.
In short, this unique property is more than just a house; It is a treasure full of history and charm. Immerse yourself in the beauty of São Miguel and become the owner of a piece of paradise full of cultural significance.
