Where to buy? That is always the million dollar question….. But before answering this question you need to be quite clear about your personal preferences and what it is you choose to buy this home for. Are you looking for a home you can move into full-time? A vacation retreat you can visit every year, a house on the beachfront or your own piece of land to cultivate and become self-sufficient. Uruguay offers a lifestyle and a region for almost everyone. Whether you want to live in a world capital, a smaller town, a small chacra (small farm) or on a huge estancia (ranch) out in the country, you can be sure that Uruguay has a place for you.
MontevideoDo you enjoy City Life? Then Montevideo might be just what you are looking for. Shady parks, sycamore-lined streets, eating at sophisticated restaurants, bistros, and sidewalk cafés, or browsing in the artisan markets, antique shops, and bookstores. At the plazas, there are often musicians playing tango or residents practising their tango skills to a local band or music box, or simply sitting at a sidewalk café while reading the paper and watching the world go by. The city has it all in regards to culture and convenience. Teatro Solís is a magnificently restored old-world theatre, serving as a venue for some of the most famous theatre groups and orchestras in the world. There are numerous schools of dance, music, and art. The city is home to 35 radio stations, various TV channels, and it has good cable TV and high-speed Internet services.
