Overview
Description
Welcome to Villa Blanca, an exceptional private residence just three blocks from Ocean Park Beach — one of San Juan’s most iconic and coveted stretches of coastline. This distinctive estate blends Spanish architectural character with contemporary design, creating a sophisticated expression of modern Caribbean living.
Reimagined in 2021 by renowned architect Carlos Salazar, Villa Blanca preserves the warmth of its Spanish-influenced architecture while introducing soaring ceilings, abundant natural light, expansive glass openings, refined finishes, and a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor spaces.
The residence offers seven bedrooms and six-and-a-half bathrooms, including five en-suite, a bedroom with access to a full bathroom, plus a private office — with the flexibility to convert the sixth bedroom into an additional en-suite and the current office into a bedroom if desired. The primary suite is a private retreat in its own right, featuring a spa-inspired bath, a spacious walk-in closet, and a private balcony with partial beach and ocean views — an idyllic spot to just relax under the Caribbean Sun.
Open-concept living and dining areas flow naturally toward the terraces and pool. Warm wood tones, custom wall treatments, and thoughtfully chosen finishes bring texture throughout. At the heart of the home, the gourmet kitchen features an oversized waterfall island, contrasting cabinetry, brass accents, a farmhouse-style sink, woven pendant lighting, and a professional-grade ILVE range with double ovens — fully open to the principal social spaces.
Villa Blanca opens to a private tropical retreat centered around a resort-style pool, complemented by covered terraces, multiple lounge and dining areas, lush landscaping, and a dedicated outdoor kitchen and BBQ area — an exceptional setting for entertaining and everyday living alike.
The residence is equally impressive behind the scenes: an attached garage with electric door provides secure, convenient parking, a fully owned 28-panel solar system (20 kWh battery storage), a solar water heater, a propane backup generator, a water cistern, and a filtration system provide meaningful energy and water resilience.
Currently operated as a luxury short-term rental, Villa Blanca offers compelling flexibility — as a primary residence, private Caribbean retreat, second home, or a turnkey continuation of its established vacation rental income.
Ideally positioned within walking distance of the beach, with effortless access to nearby tennis, pickleball, athletic fields and outdoor recreation. Also conveniently near to the vibrant Calle Loíza, celebrated for its acclaimed restaurants and cafés, renowned private schools, premier shopping, hospitals, and San Juan International Airport.
Villa Blanca is a rare convergence of architecture, lifestyle, and resilience — a sophisticated private residence in the heart of San Juan.
