This single-family detached house, just 650 feet from the beautiful sandy beach on the wide bay of Portezuelo, located in the best neighborhood in the popular residential area of Tío Tom, near Punta Ballena, was built in 2011 by the current owner for permanent personal use in traditional brick construction style.

Well-insulated double walls, along with special floor and roof insulation and double-glazed windows with PVC frames, show that a great deal of emphasis was placed on high-quality construction.

The single-story house offers 1,744 square feet of living/usable space, encompassing a living/dining room with integrated kitchen, two bedrooms, a bathroom, a guest bathroom and a utility room with indoor access to the attached garage with a workshop.

The living room opens onto the covered terrace, which faces north, towards the sun, and from here you take a few steps down to reach the yard, which located on a slightly lower level. Here on the side of the house sheltered from the wind you can enjoy relaxing in the sun all year round, even during the cooler months.

The 7,266-square-feet property offers enough space to build a pool and/or a guest house, if desired.

The location is quiet – even during the summer months of the tourist season – and the long stretches of wide beaches and beautiful neighborhood invite you to enjoy summer swimming and long walks.

In the small center of nearby Punta Ballena there are shops to meet your daily needs. Punta del Este and Maldonado, which are a 20-minute drive away, offer comprehensive infrastructure.
