Sao Vicente Land Plot for Sale – Wide Ocean Views

For a very affordable price, this is your chance to build your dream home, or development of villas, right by the beach with glorious views of the ocean and Santa Luzia. It’s very rare that a large plot – over 1.5 square kilometres with an unobstructed beach and ocean view – comes onto the market. Casa Verde Homes is delighted to exclusively present just such a plot, at under 64 Euros per square metre. Situated just south of the fishing village of Calhau, this plot is on the eastern tip and fabulous coast of Sao Vicente, with the best views of the uninhabited island of Santa Luzia available anywhere. With dramatic mountain backdrops and protection from the winds, this is a very special location. Just a 20-minute drive from Mindelo, the thriving capital of the island with its colonial architecture, marina, international airport, fabulous culture, dining and shopping, Calhau has sandy and volcanic beaches, a protected cove, turtle nesting sites but also restaurants, shops and bars of its own. It is under 2.5 kilometres – an easy walk – from the long, sandy beach at Praia Grande, with its spectacular dunes and the charming Baia das Gatas. This large land plot is level, has electricity supply, a track leading to it and a number of other villas, apartments for rent, small hotels and private single homes nearby. It is, however, an area that is not over developed, and this plot provides the space, the peace, the quiet and ocean views that so many crave, with plenty of room for privacy. Calhau remains unspoilt by tourism and is ripe for development. For this land, there are architect’s plans with prior approval – though planning permissions may have lapsed – for up to six villas on the 1,556.58m² plot. You do, of course, have your choice of building fewer villas or a single residence, up to 2 or 2.5 storeys. Please note: the land is designated for residential use. The paperwork and ownership are all in order and straightforward, with a single private owner. Neighbouring properties show what can be done here, and the island has an abundant supply of high-quality contractors and materials, along with low labour costs.
