About this home

Lot for Sale in the El Faro Carmelo Gated Community. Excellent  and "UNIQUE" 9631 lot in the front row, RIGHT ON the beach. The community features 24-hour security, padel courts, tennis courts, soccer fields, a gym, a clubhouse, a swimming pool, a private beach, a marina for yachts and sports boats, boat slips, a restaurant, an ice cream shop, a brewery, water sports, and an endless array of spectacular activities for everyone. The neighborhood features 50 hectares of pine trees along a white-sand coastline on the cleanest stretches of the Río de la Plata. Its strategic location makes it close enough yet just far enough away. Less than one kilometer from the international airport—which connects you to northern Buenos Aires in 15 minutes—7 kilometers from Carmelo, and just a few hundred meters from its exclusive private marina, these distances make it extremely accessible by air, water, or land. However, the area is set apart from major urban centers, making it a quiet, safe, and peaceful place. Whether you’re looking to live here, spend weekends, or take a vacation, El Faro offers the chance to spend time with your family outdoors, with all the activities that any coastal destination has to offer.

Buying in Uruguay as a foreigner

Yes, foreigners can buy property in Uruguay.

A purchase is normally formalized through a public deed, notarial involvement and registration with the Property Registry.

Near coasts and borders
Uruguay does not apply a nationwide restricted zone for foreign buyers equivalent to Mexico's coastal zone or border strips in other countries. This field is retained only to preserve the common schema.
Residency
Tax residency available for property investment of ~$380,000 USD (plus 60 days presence). Path to citizenship is clear.
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 depends on the lender, residency, income, financial history, currency, down payment and property type.

How buying works

  1. Identification and funds

    Prepare a valid passport or identification, powers of attorney where applicable and source-of-funds documentation.

  2. Title due diligence

    The notary reviews ownership, cadastral parcel, registry history, liens, debts, plans and the property's legal status.

  3. Reservation or purchase agreement

    Define price, currency, deposit, conditions, timelines and allocation of costs.

  4. Deed and registration

    Execute the public deed, pay applicable taxes and fees and register the document with the corresponding Property Registry.

This information is general and educational. Taxes, costs, documentation requirements and transaction-specific conditions should be verified with a notary, attorney, accountant, bank or competent authority. Research last reviewed July 2026.
