This iconic aqua-green historic building is situated in Otrobanda, one of Curaçao’s most sought-after and rapidly revitalizing historic neighborhoods. The property seamlessly blends timeless charm with modern amenities (including a swimming pool). Located within walking distance of Willemstad's finest restaurants, nightlife, and attractions (such as the Handelskade, Punda, Rif Fort, and the Pontoon Bridge, and right next to the lively Kura Hulanda Village), this is an ideal investment for the discerning investor seeking a distinctive property with immediate income potential. It is also conveniently located near the Curaçao Medical Center (CMC).
Investment Highlights
This property features a mix of five meticulously designed rooms and a private studio, each fully furnished and rental-ready. Thanks to its turnkey setup, minimal preparation is required for new owners. Each unit comes equipped with high-speed Wi-Fi as part of the rental package, and the innovative Pagatinu prepaid electricity system allows tenants to manage their own power usage. The modern, well-finished spaces stand out in Curaçao's rental market for this demographic, leading to consistently high demand. The units are always occupied, with the current owner frequently having to decline prospective tenants.
The UNESCO World Heritage status also offers significant financial benefits, including exemption from transfer tax, adding considerable value for investors.
