Unique Property With Pineapple Greenhouses And Urban Development Potential — Abelheira De Baixo, São

An exceptional property for sale with 12,860 m², located in the prestigious Abelheira de Baixo area, parish of São Roque, one of the most desirable and high-end residential zones of Ponta Delgada. The surroundings feature exclusive villas, excellent accessibility to the city center, and close proximity to the popular Pópulo and Milícias beaches.

This property stands out for its agricultural activity and development potential:

18 traditional Azorean pineapple greenhouses, fully operational, preserving the island’s century-old agricultural heritage. The structures are well maintained and produce high-quality pineapples, appreciated both locally and for export.

Two banana plantations, adding diversity and productivity to the land.

Approximately 4,000 m² of the total area are classified as urban zone according to the Ponta Delgada Master Plan (PDM), offering significant potential for residential or tourism development.

Dual road frontage — one facing the main street and another facing a side lane — with three gated access points, ensuring excellent logistics and convenience.

The Azorean pineapple is one of São Miguel’s most iconic products and a symbol of its agricultural tradition. The glass greenhouses create the perfect microclimate for pineapple cultivation, allowing precise control of temperature, humidity, and light. Production is carried out manually, following traditional methods that result in fruit of exceptional aroma and flavor — the hallmark of the “Ananás dos Açores – São Miguel”, which holds Protected Geographical Indication (PGI) status.

São Roque is one of the most sought-after parishes in Ponta Delgada, valued for its prime coastal location, tranquility, and high quality of life. It combines a rural charm with urban convenience, making it an ideal area for luxury living or investment.

This property represents a rare opportunity — whether to continue the iconic pineapple production or to develop an exclusive residential or tourism project in one of the island’s most prestigious areas.
