Beach House for Sale in Cebu, Philippines

Live in Paradise-Oceanfront Mini-Mansion-180 Degree View

Just 12 miles north of the City of Cebu - "Queen City of the Philippines" - lies your own paradise! This is a NEW three-story ultra-modern Executive House – Directly ON the beach with imported white sand. The house is over 200 Square Meters (2200 SQ. FT. Lot is titled 500 SM. (5500 SF.) There is also plus 300 SM usable white sand beach area. Located on a private quiet road – 200 meters off the National Hwy. No dust or traffic noise! The house is on Magay Beach, one mile from the quiet and crime-free provincial town of Compostela. A larger town - Danao - is 4 miles north. The city of Cebu is 30-40 minutes away, depending on traffic. Cebu features 2 modern "American-size" malls -with modern theatres, shops, restaurants - the works. There are hundreds of restaurants offering every type of cuisine. The island of Mactan is even closer - with 5-star hotel resorts and casinos. We go to the city for action and come home to the quiet seaside to watch the surf.

UNIQUE HOUSE - Glass block, designer tiles and granite floors have been used to reflect the sea from EVERY square foot in the house! Open-room design! Second floor is 660 sq. ft. air-conditioned master bedroom suite with 270-degree view of sea. Glass windows wrap around the room. Bed, leather couch set, and 12-foot desk - a private honeymoon retreat! Third floor guest suite with sun deck. See every star at night from this "rooftop observatory". All three floors have a large bath - with decorator tile and glass block showers.

This is an "entertainment house"! We have had parties of over 120 with no problem! The beachfront/pool area was constructed with bench seating for 75. Two tiki huts and tables seat another 20. Skyview deck also makes great partying place - for 30+ dancing under the stars. It was designed to be a personal mini-resort - a replication of Boracay. The tiki shade-tree features water-sprinklers that can cool you off at any moment.

The house could be partitioned into 4 separate bedrooms, but we prefer the open room design. It is like living with the sea. You go to sleep to the sound of the surf and awake to the sunrise over the water. All day, you see the sea and its activities – fishermen paddling by, ships passing, fish jumping, children swimming – and best of all – the full moon shining on the waters. Two gardens landscape the front yard and two more in the back. One could be paved for added parking. House was over-built! Solid concrete construction loaded with rebar. Concrete walls protect the property, plus alarms inside.

EVERY plant, every tile, window, door, glass block, light, etc. etc. – have been personally chosen by my wife and I. We read several books on designer houses, went to the best supply houses, chose every item to match. This is a unique SEA-oriented house. YOU SEE THE SEA – even before you open the front doors and from every foot of the house – except the toilet seats!

The view from the third floor is spectacular! A sun deck wraps around the beach side – great for parties or star-gazing! Crystal-clear water has been designated as a fish sanctuary. Imported sand created beach – safe from the surf. A series of 6 “sandboxes” traps the sand – while their walls create a walkway and seating for 50-plus people on beach. Two huge separated seawalls protect the house from even a tsunami. (The surrounding islands arrangement makes the area tsunami-proof anyway.)

Gravel road leads to tiled fence and double gate that swings wide for entry. Road likely to be paved soon, since the Mayor’s brother owns the lot 100 meters down the road. There is clear legal access road from National Hwy.

Our “White House” was the first built, now being followed by many others who are decorating the beach as well. My Filipino neighbor has started his own “Disney beach” – decorated with concrete-molded jet-ski toys for kids to play on. The 16-lot development is growing quickly as the mix of Filipino and foreigner neighbors create their dream houses, too. North-bound freeway will be finished soon. This will give direct run to city in less than 20 minutes. Prices will rise dramatically!

We will miss this house. Actually, the only reason we are selling is that our adoption of my wife's sister now makes this second vacation home impractical.

We have found an absolutely honest Filipino lawyer (Really - anyone here will tell you Michael Enriquez is the smartest and most honest lawyer in town - see for yourself.) You can buy in the Philippines if you are married to a Filipina - or via a corporation. Mike - or your own attorney - can handle all the paperwork in either way. We have a CLEAN AND CLEAR TITLE - able to transfer to directly into your name. Should I mention that the ANNUAL property taxes are $220 dollars? Utilities are about $100 a month in the Philippines. A live-in maid will cost you $60 a month. You can live like a king here on your social security check!

Sold fully furnished - including new leather couches and Whirlpool washer, etc. Move in tomorrow! Email us for over 200 pictures of full details.

Only ONE family can live in Paradise! Make your cash offer now.
