House and Mini-Apartment in a Peaceful Natural Setting
Located in a quiet, natural environment, this cozy property built in 2015 offers an authentic countryside atmosphere with beautiful views of Yunanga Mountain. The main house is built with a reinforced structure of concrete columns and upright brick, a material more durable than standard block. Its roof combines yumbingue wood with metal structure, and the construction is prepared to support a second floor if the buyer wishes to expand in the future.
The main house features a practical layout that includes one or two bedrooms, one bathroom, a kitchen, and a dining area. Additionally, the property includes an independent mini-apartment with a living room, kitchen/dining area, and a bathroom—ideal for guests or rental. There is also an additional exterior bedroom with a private bathroom, covered corridors, and multiple service areas.
The land includes fruit trees such as plantain, lemon, soursop, guava, and mango, along with designated areas for chickens, storage, and space for a pig pen or additional animals. This makes it an excellent option for those seeking a more self-sufficient lifestyle while maintaining the peace of the surroundings. For parking, a garage can be added by removing a front wall, or the wide entrance can be used to comfortably park a vehicle.
Access is via a dirt road, and the location is very convenient—just 5 minutes from Taxiche, 10 minutes from Malacatos, and 15 minutes from Vilcabamba. The sale includes only the house, without furniture or animals, and exact construction measurements can be taken if the buyer requires them.
