Campos de Roca, Private residential community in Brandsen, Argentina
Campos de Roca is a private residential community in Brandsen featuring 378 residential lots distributed across 270 hectares with varied architectural styles ranging from traditional to contemporary. The properties are situated on the former estate grounds with open spaces and mature trees throughout the development.
The property belonged to Argentine President Julio Argentino Roca in the 19th century before being converted into a residential community in 1994. This transformation marked a significant shift in how the historic estate was used and developed.
The former mansion now serves as a restaurant and museum open to residents, displaying items from the 19th and 20th centuries. Visitors can observe how these historic spaces continue to function as a gathering place while preserving the property's past.
The community is accessed via kilometer 65 of Provincial Route 2, located at the border between Brandsen and La Plata districts. Visitors should plan to arrive by car since the location is rural and public transportation is limited.
The community maintains strict protection for the original pine, willow, and eucalyptus trees covering the property. These mature trees provide habitat for hares, foxes, herons, and various bird species, creating a green refuge within the rural landscape.
