Description

Exciting estate specially designed for one of Colombia’s most prominent families!

This famous landmark home is 2 hours south of Bogotá in the resort community of Melgar, and was the private retreat of a famous Colombian TV star. Surrounding Verde Sol development area is home to several Embassy personnel and Bogotá aristocrats. House was upgraded to meet US Embassy security requirements for special high-profile guest entertainment.

House sits astride area’s two highest corner lots (~1 acre) with ultimate commanding view. Resultant elevated breeze is perfect! House is an architectural masterpiece with approximately 5500 total square feet living area. Main house is 2.5 story multi-level design with huge open Great Room, new modern kitchen, 4 large bedrooms, 6 baths, and private servant’s quarters. Main house is connected by walk-bridge over pool to guest house. Guest house has 2 upstairs bedrooms with 3/4 baths, full downstairs game room, built-in bar area, plus another 3/4 bath. Each bedroom has private balcony with fantastic view. Secluded upper level outdoor patio is perfect for outdoor events.

Unlike many Colombian homes, house has hot water throughout to include the outdoor Jacuzzi. Elegant two-story cascading waterfall inside main entry with small fishponds at each level. Large jetted tub in master bath with air conditioning in each bedroom and game room. House is fully furnished, to include a new 52” TV with surround sound stereo. Must see to appreciate!

In a US market, this fun-filled investment opportunity would easily cost 2 million dollars. It only costs $500 per month to maintain this place which includes taxes, admin fees and salaries for a full-time maid and a grounds keeper. We love the house and the area, as anyone would, but I am soon moving further south to expand the family business. Asking $416,000 US with personal financing at 20% down and the balance over a maximum of 7 years. Email: ken.buholtz@us.army.mil
