Landhuis van Engelen (translated as manor) is centrally located on top of a hill in the center of a residential area. Because of the location, there is always a cooling breeze and a spectacular view over several residential areas and the harbor of Curacao. The property is accesible from the Santa Rosaweg as well as from the George Maduroweg. Landhuis van Engelen was built in 1685 and is a monumental building. The landhuis has a very rich history. Originally it was used as a plantation by Willebrod van Engelen. At that time the plantation was 340.000m2. In the 19th century the name of the plantation was changed and around 1850 the plantation changed into a country retreat, where vegetables and fruits were grown. After 1939 the plantation was divided into separate lots. There are many possibilities to develop this prime piece of 2.250m2 private property. The main building needs to be renovated and can be converted into a Bed & Breakfast, boutique hotel, or several apartments. Do not hesitate to contact our agent. Van Engelen Van Engelen is located on the East side of the island and is a luxury residential area.
