This area is one of the fastest growing polo areas in Argentina. Located
12 km from Salvador Maria and 20 km from the town of Lobos, new polo fields are being constructed throughout the year. Lobos offers all the facilities one would expect of
a town with a population of over 30,000 inhabitants. These include several medical clinics, supermarkets, pharmacies, auto
dealerships and rentals, gas stations, household appliance stores, farm equipment and supplies, and, of course, polo equipment
stores. Nearby Laguna de Lobos is a recreational lake with full camping and picnicking
facilities and water sports such as waterskiing and boat rentals. Buenos Aires is only 125km ( less than 80 miles) away.
At
the ranch itself, a multitude of birds inhabit the park. Various species such as wild parrots and the hawk-like Chimangos
flourish here. This accounts for the lack of rodents on the property.
One
can enjoy breakfast on the terrace or peaceful evenings meals by the swimming pool and watch the sun set over the polo field.
For those who need contact with the outside world, cable television provides over 100 channels, many in English, including
CNN, Fox, Bloomberg, ESPN, as well as many current television series.
The ranch has two major advantages over properties such as raw land being sold in the area
or lots at country clubs:
1) This property has trees. Lots of trees. The trees provide needed shade for the horses as well as for
the owners. Some of the trees are over 30 years old. The park sets the ambience for the entire property.
2.) The ranch is completely ready to operate as a polo ranch. From day one when you arrive, you can live in
the main house comfortably and play polo outside. There will be no waiting while you plan, build, and hope that all goes according
to schedule. Horses and equipment are readily available from your neighbors at the San Francisco de Asis Polo Club. The corrals
and pastures are fenced and ready to take on new horses. Cold drinks await you in the refrigerator. Food can be cooked
in the kitchen or on an outdoor grill. The swimming pool will provide you with relief from a hard workout. Come and enjoy
yourself!
Remember: If you buy into a country club and you have difficulty with other members in the club, you
are pretty much stuck at that club. Here, with your own ranch, you make the decisions. You can visit any one of several clubs
right in the area, or invite others to play on your own field. YOU are in control.
One additional advantage here in Argentina is that when
you decide to build a larger main house, or additional structures, you will not have to contend with building inspectors
and building permits. The land is yours to do with as you like.
Build where you please. When you want. The choice is yours.
