What is a typical expat home or apartment like in Mercedes?

"A typical expat home or apartment in Mercedes, is often a blend of modern and traditional styles. The homes are usually spacious, with multiple bedrooms and bathrooms to accommodate families. They often feature large, open living areas and kitchens equipped with modern appliances. Many homes also have outdoor spaces such as patios or gardens, perfect for enjoying the country's mild climate. Some apartments may offer views of the city or the nearby Rio Negro. The homes are often located in safe, residential neighborhoods, close to local amenities such as shops, restaurants, and schools. Many expats choose to live in homes with traditional Uruguayan architecture, featuring high ceilings, wooden floors, and large windows. Despite the traditional exterior, these homes often have modern interiors, with updated bathrooms and kitchens. Some expat homes may also have additional amenities such as a swimming pool, a garage, or a barbecue area," remarked another expat who made the move to Mercedes, Uruguay.
