We have a couple of really nice rentals we’d like you to know about.

Both of these units have fantastic views. One is on the Rambla and the other is perched on a hillside above the Marina (Cerro San Antonio.) The unit above the Marina has the best view in Piriapolis at this time.

To view them, go to the Piriapolis Page found on the right sidebar.

The big news right now is big plots of view and beachfront property available near Piriapolis. We have parcels of 60 hectares and 24 hectares. We are also in the process of finalizing a sales agreement for a 10,000 square meter tract of actual beachfront that has a preliminary design/budget for a hotel and about 40 bungalows.

We also have several residential lots on Cerro San Antonio. All of these plots have stunning high ground views of the ocean and Rio Plata. Please ask for maps and prices if you’re interested in these great home sites.

The owner of this very nice plot of land has informed me the price is “negotiable.” By this he means, “a sale in the next year is good.” My interpretation is that there’s some flexibility in the price, but offers that are dramatically lower than the asking price might not fly.

This is a great rural piece of property for those wanting views of the Sierria and Ocean.

Bring your offers!

Here’s the link: Sierria de la Animas

There is a listing for a 4 bedroom, 3 bath house (see Piriapolis, under Property for Sale, right sidebar) for $420,000.

I’m mentioning this property, not because it’s a screaming deal, but because it defines High-End in Piriapolis. In the Punta del Este area, in good view/beach access neighborhoods, the price would be 50% - 100% more. What we’re seeing, with Americans in particular, could care less about La Punta’s tonnie international resort image and are looking for stunning views/beach for good prices……which Piriapolis has.

Admittedly, the town is a little worn and on the tacky side, but I can remember when the area just south of Santa Barbara was “tacky.”

Stunning view property, on the cheap, always draws people. The situation will change in Piriapolis, it’s a mater of time.

If you find the 10,000 square meter plot of land which is actually on the beach some what appealing, this should peak your interest. (Please see Land under Property for Sale on the right sidebar.)

Currently, the height restriction is 7 meters. The city is considering changing the height limitation to 21 meters. This takes this piece of property from the OK status to something much more compelling. This mirrors a similar move in Punta del Este to increase density, encourage development and investment. If it happens, without a doubt, this is an interesting piece of prime land in Piriapolis.

Stay Tuned!

There is a rare find in Piriapolis.

We have a 10,000 square meter plot of land actually on the beach. As you may know, most beach property is not really on the beach. Nine times out of ten the land is not on the waters edge, it’s on the opposite side of the beach road. Most beach access is Public Domain in Uruguay.

Please see the Land under the Property for Sale category on the right side of the page.

The listings we have under Property for Sale, Piriapolis section is fairly representative of the middle market. ButĀ  hold theĀ  phone! That’s not the whole story!

At this time, we have bout 40 properties for sale: houses, flats and some land for sale. Since I’m the technology flunky for the company, this will take awhile for my to get these up.

Please let me know if you need help and we can email you based on specific parameters.

Thanks,

Steve
