Property Location within Florianopolis Area
The
neighbourhood of São João do Rio Vermelho owes its name to a river that runs
across it whose water has a reddish colouration as a result of the decomposition
of the roots of local vegetation. (Rio
Vermelho = Red River)
São
João do Rio Vermelho is located beside the State Park of Rio Vermelho, a
1.532,35
hectare
environmental preservation unit running between the Moçambique Beach on the
eastern coast of the Santa Catarina Island and the main road. Thanks to its
location within the ecological reserve, this is the only beach on the island
that is, without any doubt, 100% free from all types of pollution.
Rio Vermelho is the only neighbourhood on the island lying at an
average height of 6 m above sea level which turns it into a sort of 'regional
highland'. It features high dunes along the beach (a natural protection against
the effect of sea air) to the east, and the hills to the west shelter it even
further.
The view from the hills is beautiful and no matter where you are
in Rio Vermelho, you will always be able to see both the dunes and the
hills.
The neighbourhood has been developing continuously for the last
8-10 years and it is only recently that luxury condos are starting to crop up
there. It seems developers only just started noticing this very green, natural
plain spreading between Moçambique Beach and the hill chain that runs along the
coast.
The southern part of Rio Vermelho lies upon the northern arm of
Lagoa da Conceição (Conceição Lake) offering breathtaking scenery with abundant
autochthonous wild flora and fauna which may be spotted while rowing on the lake
or walking the many trails leading up the hills or across the dunes and the Rio
Vermelho to the sea.
São João do Rio Vermelho is a new, fast-growing neighbourhood with a current real estate appreciation rate of 20% per year. There are great investment opportunities in this area as property here is still cheaper than in other areas of the Island of Santa Catarina though equally valuable and rapidly-appreciating.
Florianópolis is the capital city of the Brazilian southern state of Santa Catarina. It is located on a subtropical island featuring over 50 beaches, green seas, historical places, hills and breathtaking views. Florianopolis is a place with out-of-the-ordinary beauty, the island is increasingly sought after as one of the best locations for safe investment in real estate in Brazil. Connected to the mainland by two bridges and just 20 minutes from the local international airport and 30 from the coach terminal, Florianopolis is the capital city with best quality of life in the country, a safe, relaxed place with the highest real estate appreciation rate in the region (proven 20-25% per year).
