House for sale in Pocitos, Montevideo, Uruguay: U$S 635,000, 366 m², 5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms. Published on May 18, 2026 by Grupo Ocho; updated on October 19, 2026.
Located in one of Montevideo’s most sought-after areas, this house for sale on José Martí and 26 de Marzo, in the heart of Pocitos, offers comfort and style. It is 100 years old and was designed to provide spacious, bright rooms. It was built by architect Raúl Faget in 1926 for his friend, a prominent businessman of the time, and his wife. Their friendship, and the fact that the businessman had also studied architecture, resulted in details not found in all of architect Faget’s houses, such as Carrara marble on the main staircase, pinotea floors, solid cedar doors and windows with airtight double-contact closures, Canadian Douglas fir roller shutters, Caviglia boiserie and sideboard, beveled Belgian crystal glass in the living and dining room doors, and two stained-glass windows.
