Tres Cruces, Montevideo: properties, prices and guide

Tres Cruces is a connection point between Centro, Cordón, La Blanqueada and Parque Batlle. The terminal is its most visible reference, but the neighborhood also includes residential streets and corridors with very different intensity.

Terminal proximity may simplify some trips and change traffic, sound and footfall. Useful distance must be measured from the address and against the resident's routine.

Before buying or renting in Tres Cruces

  1. Confirm the location

    Keep Tres Cruces separate from Cordón, La Blanqueada and Parque Batlle before using data or inventory.

  2. Visit at different times

    Record which rooms receive direct daylight and return at rush hour to test traffic noise with the windows open and closed.

  3. Review the building and condominium

    For a used property, request meeting minutes, reserve-fund information, common expenses and records on lifts, façades and shared systems.

  4. Compare like with like

    Match property type, size, condition, orientation, parking and the specific block. A broad area label does not make two homes equivalent.
