Property buyers head to 'unspoilt Argentina'
Argentina's rural areas are attracting interest from property investors keen to escape the stress of city life, it has emerged.
Visiting the South American country's Parana Delta recently, a correspondent for the Financial Times commented on the beauty of its "idyllic setting", situated just one hour away from the hustle and bustle of Buenos Aires.
According to the newspaper, this area of Argentina is "an increasingly attractive destination for city-dwellers in search of a dream home in an easily accessible yet unspoilt natural wilderness".
John Packett, a retired British stockbroker who recently bought land in the delta, said that investing in Argentinian property still represents a "quirky choice" for some people, but one that is likely to become more popular.
"As the world continues to shrink, it's hard to imagine that this place will remain secret," he commented.
The Toronto Star also recently visited Argentina, with the newspaper's correspondent spending time on a traditional ranch, or estancia, near the town of Junin.
