Set within one of the most scenic rural landscapes of Lavalleja, surrounded by rolling hills and fertile valleys, this remarkable 254-hectare farmland offers an exceptional combination of productive grazing land, abundant natural water, and refined countryside living.

Strategically located in the Marmarajá area, the property enjoys the tranquility of a private rural setting while remaining conveniently close to essential services. The cities of Minas, Aiguá, and Mariscala are only minutes away, providing year-round support and infrastructure. The farm lies just 1.5 kilometers from Route 8, one of Uruguay’s principal highways, ensuring reliable access throughout the year via a well-maintained gravel road.

Positioned approximately 110 kilometers from Punta del Este and 160 kilometers from Montevideo and its international airport, the property benefits from an excellent balance between accessibility and rural privacy, making it ideal for both full-time residence and weekend retreat use.

The landscape is defined by impressive panoramic views across valleys and surrounding hills, creating a setting of exceptional natural beauty. One of the estate’s most outstanding natural features is its approximately 4 kilometers of frontage along the Marmarajá Stream, which forms wide natural lagoons of clear water bordered by untouched native vegetation. This permanent water presence enhances both the productivity and recreational appeal of the property while supporting local wildlife and natural biodiversity.

Beyond its scenic qualities, the land demonstrates strong productive capability. Approximately 75% of the soils belong to the highly regarded 2.21 soil group, with an average Coneat Index of approximately 105, offering excellent potential for intensive grazing and forage production. The remaining soils, classified primarily as 2.12 and 2.11, provide reliable breeding capacity and present additional opportunities for forestry development, further diversifying long-term land use potential.

A defining element of this estate is its outstanding residential infrastructure, designed to deliver comfort and functionality throughout the year. The main residence, built in solid colonial style and recently renovated, offers approximately 300 square meters of living space in excellent condition. The house features six bedrooms and three bathrooms, along with an integrated kitchen, spacious dining and living areas, and covered outdoor spaces designed for social gatherings and relaxation.

The residence is surrounded by a beautifully landscaped 5,000-square-meter park, incorporating a heated swimming pool, outdoor barbecue areas, and shaded spaces ideal for entertaining and enjoying the natural surroundings. The home is fully equipped with air-conditioning and heating systems in all rooms, complemented by a fireplace that enhances comfort during cooler seasons. The property is connected to the national electrical grid and supplied with high-quality fresh water from its own deep bore, supported by pumping and storage systems.

Supporting the productive operation of the farm, the property includes a caretaker’s residence, two functional barns, and well-developed livestock handling facilities suitable for cattle and sheep operations. These elements ensure the property remains fully operational while maintaining its strong lifestyle orientation.

This estate offers a rare blend of scenic beauty, water security, productive soils, and high-quality residential infrastructure, making it suitable for a wide range of uses, from a private countryside residence to an equestrian property, recreational retreat, or long-term land investment.

Combining strategic location, permanent water frontage, productive capacity, and refined living spaces, this Marmarajá Stream Estate represents a compelling opportunity for buyers seeking a fully functional rural property with strong lifestyle appeal and enduring investment value in one of Uruguay’s most picturesque regions.

Terramar International Real Estate has maintained a distinguished and leading presence in Uruguay’s premium real es
Terramar International Real Estate has maintained a distinguished and leading presence in Uruguay’s premium real estate market for more than two decades, with a strong footprint across Punta del Este, La Barra, and José Ignacio—three of South America’s most sought-after coastal destinations.

Throughout this period, we have not only witnessed the transformation of these regions—we have been active participants in shaping their growth and international recognition. Our experience is rooted in long-standing relationships, deep local insight, and a consistent ability to anticipate evolving market trends.

For many years, Terramar proudly served as exclusive affiliates of Christie’s International Real Estate in Uruguay, a collaboration that reinforced our commitment to global standards of excellence, discretion, and client service. That experience strengthened our international outlook and operational discipline. Today, we continue to evolve independently under our own brand, guided by a clear vision of continuous improvement and uncompromising professional standards.

In parallel with our leadership in luxury residential real estate, Terramar became a pioneer in the technical and specialized brokerage of high-end rural properties, expanding its reach from Punta del Este into key productive regions across Uruguay. Through Terramar Farmlands Uruguay, our Land Brokerage division delivers a uniquely integrated approach that combines market expertise with technical agricultural knowledge.

The Land Brokerage division is led by an Agricultural Engineer holding a Master of Science (MSc) in Agribusiness Management from Lincoln University, Christchurch, New Zealand, providing clients with the analytical and technical depth required for strategic land investment decisions. This technical foundation allows us to move beyond traditional brokerage, offering insight into productive capacity, land use potential, and long-term asset value.

Our clients include private investors, family offices, institutional buyers, and agricultural operators, many of whom rely on our ability to identify both on-market and discreet off-market opportunities. We offer a comprehensive advisory-driven service that includes asset positioning, market intelligence, investment structuring guidance, and due diligence coordination.

As part of our commitment to professional excellence, we collaborate closely with Uruguay’s leading legal and tax advisory firms, ensuring that each transaction is supported by robust legal frameworks, tax optimization strategies, and full transparency—key elements for international investors entering new markets.

Terramar operates fluently in Spanish, English, and Portuguese, enabling seamless communication with regional and global clients. Our multilingual capabilities, combined with deep local expertise, position us as a trusted bridge between international investors and Uruguay’s premium property market.

Today, Terramar International Real Estate represents a unique convergence of luxury coastal real estate expertise and technical land advisory capabilities, offering access to exceptional residential and rural investment opportunities across Uruguay.

Our mission is clear: to provide trusted guidance, technical insight, and exclusive access to high-quality assets that combine lifestyle, productivity, and long-term value.
