Land for Sale in Bali: Unlock the Hidden Potential
29 September 2020 by AdeBuying land for sale in Bali in a developing area is one of the best property investment strategies. You’ll be open to opportunities, with no maintenance cost and high resale value. When you travel across Canggu and Umalas, you may notice that there are many empty plots. Some small paddy patches have been sold and converted from farming land into ordinary land for building, as farmers move to buy cheaper land and build their business elsewhere in Bali. If someone were to see this and think that Canggu and Umalas aren’t desirable places to be, they’d be wrong. In recent years, Canggu and Umalas have grown in popularity and landowners know this; the prices of land have increased steadily ever since. If you love the game of Monopoly, and you’re also a property investor, then you’ll know that this is the right opportunity to get yourself some land. Buying land for sale in Bali in a developing area is one of the best property investment strategies. You may not know exactly what the land will be used for —to build restaurants, villas, hotels, or cafes. All you have is land that requires little to no maintenance costs, a strong potential for development, and very high resale value. Land for sale in Umalas (2.4 are) It is easy to look beyond the overgrowth and see the potential of this land five years from now. Take a look at this land’s exact location and surroundings. It lies in a small neighborhood, with access through a narrow driveway that was already prepared for housing developments. The area is also relatively developed, with a few houses already occupying the neighboring lands, and connected to the electric grid. The main road connected to this brick driveway is Jl. Bumbak, and in the immediate surroundings you can find so many accommodating shops and eateries — Red Spatula Coffee and Roastery, and Go Bike & Car Rentals to name a few. It’s safe to say that this land is perfect for a collection of guesthouses or even a hotel, but keep your options open. To the south, Jl. Pantai Berawa invites visitors to join the crowd at the beach. Land for sale in Canggu (4.09 are) When it comes to land for sale in Canggu, huge deals are waiting at every corner. A great example is this 4.09 Are land. With twice the area, you may think that the cost could be twice that in Umalas. This land may be huge, but it comes with a great bargain, as the cost to double the land size is marginal. The best part is, the land is very close to Jl. Pantai Berawa, which means excellent access to the ever-popular Canggu beach. Unlike the first featured land, this land opens up even more potential. Right at the roadside, but not completely tucked away, there is potential for this land for villas, shops, or small restaurants. There is space to spare for parking, making this spot so desirable to many other buyers, should you wish to resell the land. Unlock the hidden potential of land Bali Coconut Living can give helpful advice on what you should do with your land. We are not just a property agency, but a consultant that also acts as a villa managing service.

Have a look at what these Bali villas for sale have to offer. Finch Villa 2 This villa brings the element of earth and water together. From the outside, the villa looks humble and modest. It is a rectangular apartment-style house with 2 floors, minimalistically designed with wooden accents to give it a modern look. Furthermore, it sits on 1100 square meters of land, guaranteeing space for further development, while maintaining absolute privacy. The land surrounding the villa accommodates a large swimming pool that overlooks traditional Balinese rice terraces that change color with the changing seasons. Residents can observe how the Bali rice farmers navigate down each level of paddy plot, as they plant life-nourishing rice by hand. In the background, the Indian Ocean emerges from the view behind short trees. On most days, you can hear the sounds of waves rushing against the flow of Jeh Poh river. A family can enjoy the villa’s 6 en-suite bedrooms, open-plan kitchen, closed living space, garden, and parking area, in addition to the facilities mentioned above. Villa Permata 5 Villa Permata is half the size of Finch Villa, but a well-planned house at the right location can become a wonderful deal that brings so much value. The villa from the outside looks just like an ordinary house with a green facade, covered with incredibly packed plant life at the front side. Whether to add fresh oxygen to the breeze-facing front side, or to add extra privacy, this is just one of the unique features that Villa Permata has to offer. The spacious living area at the heart of this villa is what defines its interior characteristics. Villa Permata may have a closed living space, but it has large windows that face the east. This is a great advantage because you can enjoy fresh morning air as you sit on your recliner, without having to worry about getting sunburned. The upper terrace, complete with a large wick dining table underneath a canopy, and sun-kissed lounge with a view of the sea is the gem of this incredible villa. Have meals together as a family while listening to the sound of waves and the evening sea breeze. More than just an observation deck, it can potentially become your peace sanctuary. Sold with freehold title Even if you are only a property investor who would not spend as much time in these villas as your guests, remember that these villas can become yours. A freehold title, granted to Indonesian citizens, is the most secure title deed. If you are Indonesian, or someone with an Indonesian spouse or a family member, this is a great family investment that can be passed down for generations to come.

New Highlights: Freehold Villas in Umalas
10 August 2020 by AdeThis week we feature three villas that many people have been asking about. These are freehold villas in Umalas for sale for your dream house and villa business. This week, we would like to feature these freehold villas in Umalas. It seems that many people are interested in these three villas and we seem to know why. These villas are freehold villas for sale, and they are located in the increasingly popular Umalas. Umalas is, of course, the ideal residential area, since Canggu, Seminyak and Denpasar are roughly the same distance from these properties. Umalas is now becoming the new town center where residents can quickly gain access to all parts of mid-south Bali. Let’s check out each one of them. 1. Villa Azriel Villa Azriel has been put in many people’s wishlist. This is no surprise – the villa is gorgeous, both inside and out.

The grassy section is tame and easy to maintain, and safe for children to play on. The interior is fully furnished with selected minimalistic but modern furniture. There are four bedrooms, four bathrooms and a guest toilet. On the second floor, the east-facing balcony looks amazing in the morning. The whole house has a hotel-resort feel to it, and it would change your standards for vacation hotels when this house is forever yours. 2. Villa Hanna 2 This villa is not as grand as Azriel, yet does its job well to accommodate a small tight-knit family in a safe and friendly neighborhood. It has a swimming pool at the back, which is soothing in the afternoon when a part of the building casts a shadow on the water. The best part about this villa is that it is unfurnished, except for the kitchen set which has been installed. The house has so much potential; the now “blank-page” interior invites you to personalize and customize every corner, from the interior paint to the choice of functionality for each room. 3. Villa Charlie Villa Charlie is currently under development; it’s a series of villas in a housing cluster. The interesting thing about this villa is that you can use it for either residential or business purposes – this is uncommon in Umalas, and that would add so much value to the property. The current price is way lower than it would be once it’s completed, so feel free to visit the site. The villa occupies a decent 190 m2 land which gives it room for a swimming pool. There are 3 bedrooms on the second floor, and 3 bathrooms. This is a standard family home architecture, but you’ll only need to modify a few elements of the interior design before you can have a $90 holiday rental villa for the up-market.

Guide to Surveying Land for Sale in Bali
13 July 2020 by AdeBefore buying land for sale in Bali, you should consider conducting a land survey. This will protect you from land disputes and uncover any easement. Purchasing an entire lot of empty land allows you to control construction from various aspects, from the costs to design and functionality. As towns such as Canggu grow fast, you can find many plots of land for sale, initially owned by farmers, sold at an affordable price. However, it is necessary to conduct a land survey first. It’s particularly important if you purchase land that was once used for agriculture or forestry in the countryside or suburbs. This short guide was intended to give you some basic information of what land surveying is, why it is done and who should do so and when. What is a land survey? Essentially, a land survey is the act of determining the exact lines of a property. It is done in order to know the boundaries of ownership. Since land ownership disputes can be a hassle to solve in the courtroom, many buyers prefer to pay a small fee to do land surveys in order to strengthen their claim. You may find that some people on the Internet would claim that land surveys aren’t necessary, since the legitimate land owner would have the document of ownership (Sertifikat Hak Milik or SHM) with the exact measures of the plot drawn within it. While this is true in areas where property lines are easily defined, such as in town centers and housing zones, the lines are literally and figuratively blurred when it comes to land that was never improved, other than for farming. What are the benefits of doing land surveys? By defining your domain, you are avoiding land disputes. Land disputes are unsurprisingly common in rural Indonesia, particularly in cultures with strong family land heritage such as Bali. It must be noted that Indonesia as an organized and united country is only a few generations old. Families that have owned the land for generations found themselves at odds with the more modern land ownership regulations. Therefore, it’s not surprising if a landowner in the rural area does not have a land certificate or the most updated land certificate. Doing land surveys before purchasing the property helps not only you, but also future owners and neighborhoods to recognize and respect the property boundaries. Another more general reason is to recognize easements within your property, to avoid any surprise insurance charge. Who can conduct land surveys? A licensed professional surveyor can conduct land surveys, and who would work closely with a notary to update the land certificate. While we do not provide land surveying services, we are more than happy to connect you with our trusted land survey partner. Bali Coconut Living is a property agent and villa management service.

Freehold Villas in Canggu for Property Investment
7 July 2020 by AdeTake a closer look at these freehold villas in Canggu to diversify your property investment. Canggu, with Nusa Dua, are the most trending destinations right now! The Bali property market has never been better. With an increased influx of tourists and a diversification of businesses within the tourism industry itself, the tourism sector in Bali is evolving. This is why investing in a freehold villa in Canggu and Nusa Dua (two of the most trending places at the moment) is a great way to tap into this market. We’ll introduce you to three Bali villas for sale that are well-suited for a freehold property investment strategy. Villa Aksa Bali Tibubuneng, Canggu Villa Aksa Bali is fully furnished, but you don’t have to worry too much about the maintenance. All the furniture has been selected to suit the minimalistic feel of the entire villa. Feel free to add artworks on the walls or other decorations, or to rearrange and repurpose the rooms – it’s easy to manage and clean. Minimalism doesn’t always mean reducing quality and service. The villa is fully equipped with an outdoor swimming pool with a wooden platform for sunbathing. The garden is also teeming with healthy foliage and flowers. These are all great experiences particularly for tourists from the US, European and Australian regions. Dahlia 12 Berawa, Canggu Dahlia 12 was built by talented contractors and architects. The glass walls allow maximum natural lighting into the living room and dining room area, accentuating its futuristic feel. It is ideal as a yearly rent, a great treat for many people from the East and Southeast Asian regions. While the architecture seems atypical of villas in Bali, the interior designers have selected furniture that humbles the lofty attitude of the exterior design. Wicker tables, chairs and lamp shades, together with the solid wooden dining table and nature-derived decorations bring a complementary and natural element into the living experience. This lovely villa includes a swimming pool and a lily pond, which also functions as a bedding for healthy bamboo plant life. Villa Pari Berawa, Canggu Villa Pari is the dream guesthouse.
