Your dream home location

• Sao Tome de Paripe, 40 minutes from Salvador, Bahia, northeast Brazil
• a “true tropical paradise of year-round warmth, physical beauty and sensual culture rich in folkloric traditions”1
• close to a bustling local market, “Paripe”, for all your fresh, local produce and more
• 35 minutes by car to modern shopping centres and supermarkets for all your ‘western’ needs
• part of a colourful, vibrant, exotic landscape and culture

Similar to Rio de Janeiro, Sao Tome is a city of both considerable wealth and substantial poverty.  The beachfront is occupied by wealthy homeowners in grand homes and is spotted with small shops and accommodation.  The neighbourhoods in the hills behind the beachfront are known in Portuguese as “Favelas” – poor shanty towns. 

Sao Tome is colourful, but safe.  Here, you can enjoy life in a tropical paradise at a price you can afford. 

The story behind your dream home

Hello, I am Seppel Egger. I am privately selling this dream home, which my wife Jacqueline and I bought in 2008 and have lovingly and meticulously restored.  We bought this tropical seaside home with a vision of living here long term, enjoying the privileged and relaxed tropical lifestyle.
Unfortunately, the global financial crisis has affected our financial position, forcing us to return to our home of Australia and to reluctantly put our luxurious beachfront mansion on the market.

We love this dream home.  We love Bahia, Brazil.  We love the local environment and culture.  We want to pass on the pleasure of this tropical villa and delightful lifestyle to another owner who will enjoy it as much as we have.  Could you be the lucky next owner of this seaside mansion?
