With several feasibility studies already conducted — including a previously approved project, although currently expired — this multifaceted building adapts to various solutions, such as a charming hotel, student residence, or reconfiguration for the creation of autonomous units.
Here are the various options:
a) Proposal A :
- Expansion of 1 floor to create 8 units of Apartments/Accommodations
- Area to Reconstruct = 420.00m2
- Area to Build = 95.00m2
- Estimated Reconstruction Value = €1,000 x 420.00m2 = €420,000.00
- Estimated Construction Value = €1,500 x 95.00m2 = €142,500.00
- Total estimated value of works = €562,500.00
b) Proposal B :
- Partial expansion of the existing roof, to create 9 units of Accommodation in Services type Lodging Establishment:
- Area to Reconstruct = 420.00m2
- Area to Build = 30.00m2
- Estimated Reconstruction Value = €1,000 x 420.00m2 = €420,000.00
- Estimated Construction Value = €1,500 x 30.00m2 = €45,000.00
- Total estimated value of works = €465,000.00
c) Proposal C :
- Expansion of 1 floor to create 12 units of accommodation in Services type Hotel Establishment (Hotel 1*)
- Area to Reconstruct = 420.00m2
- Area to Build = 95.00m2
- Estimated Reconstruction Value = €1,000 x 420.00m2 = €420,000.00
- Estimated Construction Value = €1,500 x 95.00m2 = €142,500.00
- Total estimated value of works = €562,500.00
d) Proposal D :
- Partial expansion of the existing roof, to create 6 units of Apartments/Accommodations
- Area to Reconstruct = 420.00m2
- Area to Build = 30.00m2
- Estimated Reconstruction Value = €1,000 x 420.00m2 = €420,000.00
- Estimated Construction Value = €1,500 x 30.00m2 = €45,000.00
- Total estimated value of works = €465,000.00
The calculations presented above are merely estimates. The construction and reconstruction value may vary depending on the solutions adopted for the works, regarding the construction system and finishing materials.
Proposals A, B, C, and D may generate different construction values if the original wooden structures in the floors and roof are utilized.
A unique investment opportunity in one of the most sought-after areas of Porto.
