Salinas, Salinas, Santa Elena, Ecuador
It has been said that the perfect combination between work and play keeps you young! I don’t know if that is true, but it is important to have balance in your life, and work, play, and love are the great balance wheels of life. Here is an opportunity to combine all of those things! This two-story house is found in Salinas, just a block behind El Paseo shopping center, not far from the pleasant La Libertad Malecon and the numerous beaches found nearby, as well as an abundance of shops and services. In the front of the property is a small commercial space. On the ground level of the house, you have a living room, dining area, and kitchen, with Saltillo-style tile flooring. The kitchen features marble and tile on the countertops, and the space under the counters are open for you to design as you wish. There is also a half bathroom on this level, convenient for all spaces on the ground floor. Just off the kitchen, there is a laundry room. The three bedrooms are on the upper level, along with two bathrooms. The large master bedroom features sliding glass doors that lead out to a balcony overlooking the neighborhood. The house is estimated to be 818 square feet, but this should be confirmed by the buyer. The 172-square-foot commercial space is located on the front wall’s left side. The security door of this commercial space opens to the street, and is ideal for a small tienda, perfect for whatever kind of shop you can imagine: neighborhood convenience store, small boutique or swimwear shop, repair shop…whatever product or service you love providing! On the right side of the front wall that surrounds the property is a gate, large enough to drive your vehicle in to the parking space next to the side of the house. Between those two large doors is the pedestrian gate. This property has a lot of curb appeal, with white walls and contrasting blue gates along with textured trim that has the appearance of tumbled slate in various coordinating colors. The perimeter wall provides security and peace of mind.
