Charming Country Estate in Riachuelo, Colonia

Nestled in the idyllic village of Riachuelo, just 11 km from Colonia del Sacramento, this exclusive country estate, Casa Piedra, offers an exquisite blend of tranquility, privacy, and accessibility. Situated a mere kilometer from National Route No. 1, it benefits from swift connectivity to Montevideo and the nearby river, making it a strategic location for both relaxation and exploration.

The property spans a generous 15-hectare parcel, brimming with productive potential for crops, vineyards, or fruit trees, presently showcasing lemon groves and expansive green spaces. The estate’s main residence, known as Casa Piedra, is a marvel of design with its stone architecture and triple-height structure, offering vast, luminous spaces full of character. A basement level features a wine cellar and game room, both benefiting from natural light and ventilation.

The ground floor boasts three entrances leading to an ‘O’-shaped layout overlooking the basement. This level includes an integrated kitchen and dining area, along with a large living room. Both spaces are adorned with impressive fireplaces, exuding warmth and sophistication. Two en-suite bedrooms on this floor include fireplaces, enhancing the cozy ambiance. The upper level is an expansive, open-plan area poised for division into two additional bedrooms, each with a dedicated bathroom.

Outside, a lush grove complements the estate’s natural beauty and leads to a substantial shed featuring a caretakers’ residence and a semi-covered area where a former dairy once operated. This estate is ideal for a permanent residence, a vacation retreat, or a tourism/production project in one of Colonia’s most picturesque locales.
