The reason to consider it.

This majestic monumental building at Scharlooweg 55 features a grand architectural design, set back from the street, with an open central area connecting office rooms. Meticulously maintained, it previously housed the Vertegenwoordiging van Nederland and includes modern amenities like solar energy on the parking lot. A broad pathway paves the way to our majestic monument located at Scharlooweg 55. This is one of the features that make this one stand out from the rest, this architectural building is build further away from the street. This and many other details specific to this building gives this property a grand feeling. When walking inside it’s like walking into a museum. It has an open central area connecting the office rooms around it. We constantly have maintained this mansion in perfect condition and always look into ways of future proofing our properties. For example on this location solar energy will be integrated on the parking lot. For many years this has been home to the Vertegenwoordiging van Nederland. We are very glad this monuments played an important function in our community. VWN plays in important role in connecting Curacao with the Netherlands.

  • Positive Foreign buyers face no ownership restrictions; a notary is mandatory and Dutch-style civil law applies
  • Mixed Closing costs: 4% transfer tax plus notary and registry fees, roughly 5-8% in total
  • Mixed Freehold and leasehold both exist; leasehold carries an annual ground fee and renewal uncertainty
  • Concern Mortgages for non-residents are harder and need a larger deposit
