The presidential family will welcome the new year in a mansion overlooking the sea, located on Doctor Núñez and Domínguez streets in this city.
President Luis Abinader, his wife Raquel Arbaje and their three daughters moved into their new home last weekend, but although they tried to do so discreetly, it was impossible. LISTIN DIARIO found out too.
Abinader and his family occupied an apartment in Torre Lloret del Mar., of the Paraíso expansion, an area where traffic is regularly congested due to the number of vehicles circulating there.
However, in his new house, which is about a kilometer from the neighborhoods of El Manquito de La Feria and Mata Hambre, as well as close to the La Esperilla and San Gerónimo residential areas, It has a four-lane road with almost zero traffic.
This sector, where the 9-1-1 system also works, is made up of residences that simulate palaces and where you can hear the birds singing.
The new home of the Abinader-Arbaje family is the result of the merger of two houses, to whom they imprinted a minimalist style, which stands out to those who pass, where there are huge residences with a traditional style. In front, a team of police officers was deployed, jealously guarding the place.
Despite the fact that Raquel Arbaje owns an exclusive furniture and household goods store, the presidential couple used trousseau from their old house to supply the new.
And is that last Saturday when they started moving, the street where they lived was closed, so that the company that loaded their furniture had more facilities to do so..
The visit made by the team of reporters LISTIN DIARIO to the house of President Abinader was kindly received by the police officers guarding the place, because, although they were jealous of the president’s security, they did not prevent the work of journalists.
Of course, they asked for the reporters’ identification, photographed it and then allowed them to take photos and videos of the mansion.
It is recalled that in the affidavit of the president’s assets, he pointed out that he owned two apartments, one of them valued at 35.4 million US dollars and a residence for an amount of 1,339,410 US dollars.
