Artistic Home Nestled in Nature
Outside of Vilcabamba in the countryside is this two-bedroom, one-bathroom adobe home with an artistic flare! Throughout the home you will find beautiful mosaics, an open floor plan, and unique designs. The coloring and design bring vibes of the eclectic Taos, New Mexico. The love that was poured into creating this magical paradise is evident – and now you get to enjoy the fruits of this labor!
On the main level of the home is an open-concept living area and kitchen, in addition to the main bedroom and bathroom. Upstairs is what has been used as an artist’s studio along with a spacious patio where you can see both garden and valley views! This upstairs area can also be used as a large bedroom or it could even be converted to a studio apartment to be rented out.
Beautifully landscaped gardens, ponds, terraces, and rock work are flourishing on the land and are ready to be enjoyed.
Electricity, irrigation canal water, and potable water from the mountains near San Pedro are all setup on the property. The canal water is stored in two 2,500-liter water tanks, which is more than enough to water the garden, fill the ponds, and more!
The 2000-square-meter (0.5-acre) lot where this home sits is nestled in the countryside between Vilcabamba and Malacatos. This property is inside a larger 7-hectare property that has a creek, orchards, berries, coffee, banana trees and more! Collectively, it makes up a lovely little ecosystem of its own. The large property is secured with a locked gate for vehicle access. From this house,s it is a 10-minute walk to the main paved road where you can catch an affordable taxi or bus.
