First Home Construction Project

Advancements in many areas of Plaza del Mar are made on a daily basis. With construction of the Club House, installation of the perimeter walls and the continued installation of the flagstone streets there are visible changes on a daily basis.

One BIG occurrence that is still not visible is the design of what looks like will be the first home constructed at Plaza del Mar. The proud owners of lot 56, block IVB (pointed out below) have started the design of their home, received permission to start building and are only awaiting the completion of the final project plans to be delivered to the architectural committee to review. Once approved by the committee they will begin construction.

The lot being utilized for the construction of this home is an end lot in a section that allows the home to have three stories within a height limitation of 9 meters(30 ft). The plot shows the different viewing angles indicated by the numbers on the plot and their corresponding photo.

Photo number one(1) shows the home as viewed from the east as one enters the development. The lot at Avenida de la Playa is approximately 3 meters (10 ft) higher than at Privada de la Playa. Hence the appearance that the home is two stories as viewed from the east. The design is very open with wide entry walkways and numerous green areas creating an inviting open and bright home.

On Photo number two(2) it becomes evident that the home is three stories and that it is in a beach front community. This is indicated by the large windows throughout providing ocean views from inside the house and is also shown by the terraces located over the garage, outside the master and the rooftop. The designs continuity is evident with the continued green spaces and very open view of the home.

Photo number(3) now shows more clearly the attached 2 car garage, the terrace over the garage itself and the additional green areas on the west side of the home.

And finally, photo number four (4) gives us a peek of the side access on the south side of the home to allow more space and natural light from all sides of the home.

The home was designed by Arq. Eduardo Castañeda and will be constructed by Arq. Renato Jaramillo, and although it as designed with the community CC&R's in mind, it has yet to be approved by the architectural committee or the city. The design is subject to change to insure compliance to all restrictions and to accommodate the likes and dislikes of the owners.
