Casa para comprar en Catete, Rio de Janeiro

This large house from the 1950s is located in Calle Alice, on the hill of Santa Teresa, in the residential area of ​​Laranjeiras. Its location is particularly interesting, in a quiet and safe area, less than 15 minutes from the Lycée français, and 5 minutes from the Corcovado Train. All amenities are less than 10 minutes away. The property is on several levels, which are accessed from the street at the bottom, where the garage for one car and the entrance to the house are located. On the upper level there is an independent studio type maisonette which requires renovation, and a small terrace. External stairs then provide independent access to all levels of the house and the garden. After a few steps, we arrive at the ground floor of the main house, which has a very large reception room, toilets, and a beautiful private terrace with a magnificent view of the Pain de Sucre. An internal staircase leads to the upper level which includes in its current configuration a living room, an office, a very large kitchen with dining area, and toilets. This level also has a covered terrace and a service area accessible from the outside. The second and top floor has four bedrooms and two bathrooms. The rearmost bedroom opens onto a wooden deck terrace and a swimming pool with a beautiful view of the Corcovado. The wooded garden is of the terraced garden type. On the last level of this one is a small completely independent house of approximately 60M2 to be completely renovated and an organic vegetable garden. This property is perfect for a family or for a bed and breakfast activity. It will require refurbishment, but the main house is perfectly habitable as it is. All the rooms on the street side offer an unobstructed view of the city and the Sugar Loaf. Certainly a great opportunity at this price, with great potential.
