This house is fabulous. We loved it. It’s extremely family friendly. Ten of us (6 adults and 4 children under the age of 10) fit quite comfortably. We loved that the table in the kitchen was big enough for all of us to dine together, and the two refrigerators were awesome. We used one for food and one for drinks! The only thing missing was a dishwasher. The two living rooms were perfect. The adults could watch tv or just hang out in one while the kids did activities or watched a movie in the other.
The location is fantastic. It’s a 5-minute walk to the local grocery store (Lider Express) and a 2-minute walk to the local pharmacy (Cruz Verde), so if you need something in a pinch it’s no big deal. It’s a 15-minute walk to the nearest metro station (Manquehue) and to the closest mall (Apumanque). Our family happen to be members at the Prince of Wales Country Club and it was only a 10-minute drive to get there. We were also able to get to Vitacura or Las Condes very easily by car. The location can’t be beat.
Parking was a little bit of a challenge. We had three cars and we were able to fit all of them on property, but the road on which the house is located is quite busy, so getting in and out required some guts and a lot of patience.
The backyard is incredible. We had enough room to throw a football and the kids ran around and played games. There’s a classic parilla-style grill that we used often. It’s well-landscaped and maintained and we found it very relaxing. There’s some seating back there but we do wish it had a table where we could have gathered to eat.
Overall, we loved it. We plan to book it again when we return to Chile next year. Definitely a great find!
