ABOUT THE PROPERTY

​

​Designed by internationally esteemed architect Carlos Ott, Villa Emilio is located only 3 minutes’ drive to the quaint town of Jose Igancio. This contemporary masterwork has quickly become an icon of bold design and Uruguayan luxury living. Perched a mere twenty yards from some of the region's most unspoiled coastlines, this villa redefines beachside luxury living. Aesthetically immaculate interiors present the ultimate merger between sleek post-modern sophistication and sea swept romanticism. A bold, dynamic edifice of clean vertices, pristine glass walls, and towering native stone accents leaves an indelible impression. Wrap-around double-height tinted glass walls curate an exceptional sense of permeability and oneness with the lush exteriors. Sun-bleached wood-paneled ceilings impart a maritime edge before a stunning glass-bottomed living room, looking unto the pool below. Sea-swept nautical decor hovers above the glass console tables as if suspended in mid-air next to alluring seating arrangements inflected with nautical panache. This three-story concept estate has no shortage of dynamic free-flowing common spaces that re-imagine breezy open concept living. Generous light streams through the endless glass panes animating a neutral palette of grey, beige, white, and cream. The towering three-story estate is accessed through the middle story, navigating a living room with fireplace, formal dining room with beach views, and spacious gourmet kitchen with double circulation. Five suites accommodate ten guests in utmost comfort between the primary residence and a fantastically autonomous guest apartment, conjoined by an elevated walk path. The villa has no shortage of outdoor spaces, including an extensive veranda, rooftop patio, and ample multi-level deck space. A glamorous swimming pool navigates below the suspended building interacting with covered alfresco spaces and an enclosed BBQ area with quick garden access.
