    Pure Buildings: a Trilogy by Ponto Urbano

    At Ponto Urbano we create architectural value by focusing on projects that respect their surroundings and at the same time are at the forefront of design, enriching cities where we grow new projects or rehabilitate existing ones.

    Based on this premise we have developed a trilogy of buildings, the Puro.
    A project that extends over three buildings, which present themselves as an excellent real estate investment, in the heart of the city of Aveiro.

    In a privileged location, in Cais da Fonte Nova, the Puro buildings offer an undeniable quality of life to their residents, with excellent quality finishings and generous areas.

    We present you the three Puro buildings:

    Puro Homes
    With a privileged view to the Fonte Nova lake, the Puro Homes building presents a modern design, with a black concrete structure and corten steel textures.

    The project consists of 24 flats of typologies T1 to T4, with areas 52m² – 268m², distributed by 6 floors.
    Homes allow a harmonious contact with the surrounding environment, ensuring comfort and an undeniable quality of life.
    The private areas are sublimated by the tranquility of light tones and the comfort of woods.

    Pure Tower
    With an irreverent façade, the Puro Tower stands out for its avant-garde architecture, characterised by the boldness of its materials.

    The building combines class and comfort, with 50 flats of typologies T1 to T4, with areas between 52m² – 166m², distributed over 9 floors. Modernity and sophistication were the pillars of this building, located in the heart of Aveiro, allowing its residents to enjoy the vast green areas of the surroundings.

    Pure Golden
    The third building of the trilogy, Puro Golden, consists of 23 flats of typologies T1 to T4, with areas between 63m² – 210m² and 2 commercial spaces.
    The urban and cosmopolitan lines of the Puro Golden, as well as its neutral tones and the quality of the materials selected, give each flat a unique luminosity, providing the comfort desired in any home.

    Investing in a Ponto Urbano property is accessing the best that the heart of the city has to offer. The Puro trilogy, with the Homes, Tower and Golden, at Cais da Fonte Nova, brings together all the necessary conditions to guarantee a high level of quality and functionality to its residents.

  • – 5 ADVANTAGES OF INVESTING IN REAL ESTATE –

    – 5 ADVANTAGES OF INVESTING IN REAL ESTATE –

    The real estate market is certainly one of the most attractive for both new and experienced investors. This “attraction” is due to its credibility, since it is a market responsible for moving extremely high values every day with extreme security. It represents one of the best opportunities for those who want to move into the world of investments and have a more conservative profile, valuing the safety of their capital.

    Therefore, we have gathered the main advantages of investing in real estate.

    1. Security
      Security is, without a doubt, one of the biggest advantages of investing in real estate. This is because when we stop to compare this market with other segments, we realize how solid it is and offers very few risks for those who are investing – ideal for any investor. One of the points that prove this is precisely the fact that a property, regardless of its location, will hardly depreciate over time. This makes the investor secure when investing his capital in this sector.

    1. The increase in value of the property
      One of the great advantages of investing in real estate is certainly the appreciation of the “product”. As previously mentioned, it is extremely difficult for a property to depreciate over time, regardless of its location. The valuation increases with time, and in case the demand is superior to the offer, the valuation may represent a very significant increase in the market value.

    1. Living off the passive income
      Passive income is one of the advantages of investing in property. After the initial investment, the investor starts to reap the rewards every month, little by little, having the guarantee that he will receive, ideally, a certain amount forever.

    1. Great valuation of some regions
      The evolution of some specific regions makes that houses and commercial spaces simply triple or quadruple in value a short time after the investment. One of the advantages is precisely to look for those regions that tend to increase in value over time. This option requires study, as the investor needs to know not only the rhythm of evolution of the region where the property is located, but also the way in which this appreciation may or may not occur. For example, cities that have the potential to become tourist attractions, meet the conditions for their properties to increase their market value. Likewise, industrialised regions hold more capital and consequently more potential investors.

    1. Several investment options
      And finally, one of the advantages of investing in real estate is the fact that the real estate market has several investment options. That’s because besides being able to buy houses or commercial spaces, you can also invest in real estate funds. In addition, the variety of existing real estate is also an advantage for those who want to invest in this segment. The options go far beyond a house, to rent or resell, and can invest in land or commercial spaces.

    At Ponto Urbano you will find ready-to-live properties and others under construction. In fact, flats in project are excellent for those who want to invest, because they value quickly, and the investment can be monetized both in rent and resale.

  • Introducing the new Ponto Urbano project: The Tiles

    Introducing the new Ponto Urbano project: The Tiles

    The use of Tiles is one of the strongest expressions of culture in Portugal.

    Ceramic Tiles in Lusitanian lands surpass the utilitarian function, reaching the status of Art, as a poetic and artistic intervention in the development of cities and architecture, which lasts until today.

    Aveiro is a city known for its canals, but also for its tile heritage. The Fonte Nova area was one of the three main national factories in tile production.

    Currently, the district of Aveiro continues to stand out for its production in ceramics,

    encompassing several production companies of national and international reference, with a great economic dimension, which combines new techniques and state-of-the-art equipment.

    The streets are countless examples of this art, a tradition of Aveiro that can be seen through its tiled houses. The Street of Gravito, next to the Beira-Mar neighborhood, is an example of the region’s connection to Ceramics and the location of the next Ponto Urbano Project.

    The Tiles is an ode to the charms of ceramic tile art. A building with apartments of typologies T0 to T2, with areas between 38.92m² and 122.88m². Composed of a ground floor and two floors, The Tiles has parking spaces and balconies.

    The building is located in the heart of Aveiro, enabling various amenities of a city lifestyle.

    However, its residents can absorb the beauty and tranquility of the city, next to the canals of the river.

    With a classic façade that promotes the traditional trait, The Tiles integrates with the surroundings of the location where it is inserted. Its interior, however, contrasts, presenting a modern and urban design, marked by soft and elegant textures.

    For Ponto Urbano, preserving history through the maintenance of architectural and artistic heritage is a must.

    Ponto Urbano presents as a foundation the respect and preservation of art, simultaneously creating architectural value, to transcending in projects that consider the surroundings and simultaneously are at the forefront of the trace.
