This is an investor's dream: Prime oceanfront property in San Clemente, Ecuador with architectural plans and approved Municipality permits in place. Taxes have already been paid as well. But you have to hurry. The construction permit is valid only until September 2022. Approval has been given for a 9-story structure that can be either a beautiful beachfront condominium building or a hotel, restaurant, and conference center. This is one of the last beachfront properties available in this popular vacation getaway. This spectacular 1,528 square meter beachfront property has already been designed (two versions) by a multi-award-winning architect in Cuenca and includes 2-years of work getting full engineering studies and approval from the Municipality. This means a local or international investor or developer can begin construction immediately -- a rare opportunity to cash in and build on this prime location on the Ecuadorian coast. The original plans envision Edificio San Clemente as an exclusive oceanfront condominium, with 18 apartments and two penthouses. The two and three-bedroom units range in size from 107 square meters (1,151 square feet) to 190 square meters (2,045 square feet). Each unit has at least one underground parking space and a terrace with spectacular ocean views. The second plan displays a hotel, restaurant, and international conference center. Detailed architectural plans and engineering studies for both options are available for any serious investor -- and renderings for both options are included here.
