This brand new modern style 3 bedroom home was just built and is located in a great community walking distance to the Whales Tale National Marine Park (Parque Nacional Marino Ballena) which has the famous whales tale and is one of the most spectacular beaches in the world.  You can also walk to several restaurants and stores near the entrance to the park.  The location makes it a great place to live and also a great place for a vacation rental business.  The property also backs onto a large green open space that butts directly up to the beach.  The scarlet macaws are seen flying around daily!!!

It is a 2 story modern home.  On the first floor there is a guest bedroom and full bathroom, the living rooms, dining room, and kitchen, plus a large covered deck with BBQ area which flows out towards the pool.  Laundry is off of the deck.  Upstairs there is another guest room with full bathroom plus the master bedroom with ensuite bathroom and a balcony looking down on the pool and out over the green space towards the ocean.

The property is currently a vacation rental with excellent property managers in place.  It is fully furnished and turn key and ready for the new owner.  Please contact us for more information and to schedule a showing.
