About this home
Step into a rare opportunity to revive a piece of Puerto Rico’s architectural history. Nestled over 4.5 acres of very private land, this early 20th-century colonial home, built during the era of the sugar mill Central, stands as a timeless structure waiting for the right vision to bring it back to life. Currently in fixer-upper condition and appearing abandoned, this 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms this home offers solid bones, classic proportions, and authentic colonial character that simply cannot be replicated today. High ceilings, generous interior spaces (2700 sq.ft approx.), and original architectural elements create the perfect canvas for a thoughtful restoration. With the proper investment and imagination, this home has the potential to be transformed into a stunning tropical colonial residence, big hacienda or ranch, boutique hotel, bed and breakfast guesthouse or short-term rental village, making it potentially a fantastic venue for special events too. This is an ideal project for investors, developers, or end users seeking a one-of-a-kind property with historical soul and long-term upside. Properties like this are increasingly rare, and once restored, the value and presence of this home will be truly exceptional. Please call now for a private appointment!
