Modern new-build in wood-frame construction in La Barra – LBH602

This modern single-family home was completed in 2025 and stands out for its clear, timeless architecture and high-quality construction in solid timber frame design. The net living area totals approximately 1,185sqft, plus a covered terrace of about 240sqft.

Upon entering the house, one first steps into a small reception area, from which the central living space is accessed directly: the approx. 430sqft living/dining area with an open-plan kitchen. Large sliding doors open this space to the terrace, extending the living area outdoors and creating a smooth transition to the garden. With its generous roof cover and large, typically Uruguayan barbecue, the terrace offers ample space and invites relaxed, sociable evenings with family and friends. Thanks to its north-facing orientation, it can be enjoyed comfortably throughout the year.

From the living/dining space, the bedrooms are accessed via the reception area, located in the parallel side wing of the house. This area comprises two children’s or guest bedrooms—one of which has direct access to the garden—as well as the master suite with walk-in closet and private bathroom, which also has direct access to the terrace and garden. An additional bathroom completes this section of the house.

The construction quality is high and functional throughout. Exterior surfaces combine treated eucalyptus wood (Eucalyptus Grandis) with cement-based façade panels. Inside, eucalyptus wood floors, light-colored surfaces, and an open roof structure with exposed timber elements create a warm and comfortable living atmosphere.

The kitchen is equipped with built-in appliances, and the bedrooms feature fully fitted wardrobes. A high-performance stove provides efficient heating in the living area, while all bedrooms are prepared for the installation of air-conditioning units. Terrace and deck surfaces are finished in treated pine wood.

La Barra is one of the most sought-after residential and holiday locations in the region, appreciated for its safe swimming and surf beaches, vibrant gastronomic and gallery scene, and its young, international flair. Accordingly, the property is attractive both for owner-occupation and as an investment for seasonal rentals.

A thoughtfully designed modern home with excellent everyday usability and strong potential in one of the region’s most desirable locations.
