House

Positioned on elevated terrain in Costa de Cima, this 100 m² container house sits on a 1,414 m² lot with 58 m of frontage, delivering unobstructed 180-degree views over the bays of Pântano do Sul, Açores and Solidão — three of the least developed beaches on the island.

The layout distributes 8 rooms across a single floor: 2 private suites, open-plan kitchen, living room and a deck terrace that functions as an outdoor workspace with direct sea views. Two parking spaces and a barbecue area complete the ground level.

Water autonomy is secured by an artesian well and a cistern, reducing dependence on municipal supply. The lot dimensions — 58 m front, 63.5 m depth, side widths of 16.2 m and 30 m — allow significant expansion or a full replacement build. Access via Estrada Francisco Thomas dos Santos, with the Estrada do Pântano do Sul approximately 1.5 km away, connecting to the rest of the island.
