About this home
An excellent investment opportunity in one of the areas with the greatest growth potential in the Merlo district. The property consists of a 1,300-square-meter lot located on Camino de la Ribera, at the corner of Sullivan and El Matrero—an area undergoing rapid development that combines natural surroundings, easy access, and significant commercial potential. The property faces the main avenue, with excellent visibility from both directions of traffic, making it ideal for restaurants, clothing stores, cafes, offices, or services catering to residents of the new gated communities and country clubs currently under construction in the vicinity. The lot is fully enclosed with perimeter fencing and an entrance gate, featuring a wide frontage that allows for multiple design or subdivision options. It has direct, paved access and is just a few minutes from downtown Merlo (30 blocks from the train station) and the main roads connecting to Ituzaingó, Moreno, and the Western Highway. This location is strategic: the area’s residential growth is creating high unmet demand for nearby services and businesses, especially in sectors such as restaurants, food delivery, mini-markets, clothing stores, and convenience stores. Setting up shop here means getting a head start on the urban development that has already begun and taking advantage of an area with enormous potential for appreciation in the short and medium term. In addition, the green, tree-lined surroundings provide a very attractive natural setting, ideal both for high-profile commercial use and for mixed-use developments (commercial and residential). In summary, this lot offers an ideal combination of location, size, and growth potential, perfect for investors or developers seeking to establish a presence in a key area of Merlo, where expansion is already a reality. Total area: 1,300 m² Location: Camino de la Ribera, corner of Sullivan and El Matrero, Merlo Ideal for: commercial development, food court, service establishments, or mixed-use development The lot is equipped with a 1.5-horsepower submersible pump; it also already has a working electricity meter. Some people spend months looking at properties. They save listings. They compare prices. They wait until they’re completely sure. Meanwhile, the properties that are truly worth it tend to follow a different path: someone visits them first… and they sell. That’s why, when a property combines location, price, and features that are hard to find together, the smartest move isn’t to overthink it. It’s to see it. If this property has piqued your interest, here’s my simple recommendation: fill out the form on this listing page, and let’s schedule a visit. There’s no obligation. But it does ensure you won’t be left with any doubts later. Because in the real estate market, it happens often: the property that seemed just like any other… ends up being the one someone decided to view before anyone else. ______ In compliance with National Law 25,028, Law 22,802 on Fair Trading, Law 24,240 on Consumer Protection, the Civil and Commercial Code of the Nation, and the National Constitution, we hereby inform you that agents/managers do NOT engage in real estate brokerage.

Buying in Argentina as a foreigner
Yes, foreigners can buy property in Argentina.
The most important restrictions concern rural land, properties containing or bordering significant bodies of water and properties located within border security zones.
- Near coasts and borders
- Argentina does not have a coastal restricted zone equivalent to Mexico's. To preserve a common schema, this field groups areas subject to special rules: rural land, border security zones and certain properties involving significant permanent bodies of water.
- Residency
- Property ownership does not automatically grant residency. You must prove recurring income (Rentista Visa).
- Taxes and closing costs
- They depend on the state, the municipality and the property itself, so there is no single national figure. Ask the agent or our Concierge for an estimate on this home.
- Financing
- Financing for foreign buyers may be limited and depends on the lender, residency, documented income, financial history, currency, down payment and property type.

Review title, ownership, seller restrictions, liens, debts, cadastral status, condominium rules and the seller's legal standing.
Check special restrictions
Determine whether the property is rural, located within a border security zone or contains or borders bodies of water subject to restrictions.
