Luxury Property with Hospitality Use and Expansion Project – Sierra de la Ballena, Punta del Este
Exclusive luxury property located on the Sierra de la Ballena, offering open views over Laguna del Sauce and excellent connectivity, with direct access from Route 12. Its strategic location provides quick access to Playa Solanas, golf courses, Laguna del Sauce International Airport, and is only 15 minutes from downtown Punta del Este.
The property is set within a private park of 7.2 hectares, featuring more than 25 varieties of mature trees, creating a natural setting of exceptional privacy, tranquility, and spaciousness that is increasingly rare in the area.
The main residence, fully renovated to the highest standards, features 6 luxury en-suite suites, generous social areas, and common spaces designed for high-end residential living or boutique hospitality operations. The property is complemented by two independent guest houses, built in 2014, allowing for increased capacity and flexible use.
Key features include a dining and living area with a stone-carved wood-burning fireplace, wine cellar and wine bar, reception lounge with covered terrace, swimming pool finished in volcanic stone and natural stone of Indonesian origin, full spa with sauna, changing rooms, relaxation and massage areas, electric underfloor heating, air-based climate control systems throughout, double-glazed windows (DVH), bathrooms finished in marble, porcelain and Venetian stucco, and a comprehensive security system with alarm and CCTV.
The grounds also include historic stone structures and ruins dating back over 200 years, adding character, identity, and heritage value to the property.
The property benefits from a pre-approved expansion project allowing the development of up to 16 suites, significantly increasing operational capacity and asset value. Designated areas are also planned for vineyards, olive groves, a wine cellar, and stables, offering the potential to develop a high-end nature-based and wine tourism project. Optionally, the buyer may evaluate the installation of vineyards already developed by the current owner.
The sale offers full structural flexibility, either through a traditional real estate transaction or via the acquisition of the owning corporation (Sociedad Anónima). Flexible payment structures may be considered, including cryptocurrencies.
Uruguay provides a stable legal framework and favorable conditions for real estate and tourism investment, with incentives available under current regulations, making this property an attractive opportunity for both local and international investors.
