Beachside Country Estate with Large Home near Piriápolis – PIC533

Only about 2.5 mi from the coast, this appealing 13.6-acre country estate combines rural tranquility with modern comfort.

Despite its peaceful, natural surroundings, the historic seaside town of Piriápolis – with its marina, restaurants, waterfront promenade, and comprehensive infrastructure (including weekly market, hardware stores, and medical services) – can be reached in just 10 to 15 minutes by car. It is ideal for those who value country living without giving up comfort and proximity to town.

Built in 2009 in solid, traditional construction, the two-story main house offers approximately 3,120sqft of net living space (plus covered terraces) and, like the entire property, is in well-maintained, move-in-ready condition.

On the ground floor are a spacious living/dining room with a high-efficiency wood-burning stove, a modern, fully equipped kitchen, and a bedroom wing with two suites, each with its own bathroom. Adjacent is a closed barbacoa (grill and entertainment room) designed as a second living area and also fitted with a high-performance wood stove.

The upper floor houses the generous master suite with office nook, walk-in closet, and large bathroom, from which one enjoys beautiful views of the Piriápolis hills and the Río de la Plata.

Covered terraces on three sides of the house provide shaded and wind-sheltered sitting areas at all times of day. The 39ft × 11ft pool is heated (via heat pump) and features a saltwater system, sun deck, and cover.

The house is designed for year-round living. A heat-pump system with radiators in all rooms – including kitchen and bathrooms – maintains a pleasant temperature of around 72°F during the cooler months. Good roof insulation, double (partly triple) glazing, air-conditioning units, and retractable awnings ensure a consistently comfortable indoor climate throughout the year.

Apart from the main house, there is a separate 540sqft guest or staff house with living room, kitchenette, two bedrooms, and bathroom. In addition, a 1,300sqft barn provides space for tractor, tools, and equipment, along with three adjacent horse stalls.

Among the many thoughtful details that make this property ideal for comfortable and independent living are: gas-fueled water heating, fiber-optic internet connection, backup power generator, two water wells (one with filtration and decalcifying system), and strategically planted eucalyptus and casuarina trees for wind protection.

The property is sold furnished and includes the tractor and most of the machinery and gardening tools.
