Property Description

​

Located in the La Horta sector above Landangui, property of 18.78 hectares combines the best of both worlds: tranquility and nature, with proximity to nearby towns. It is less than half an hour from Loja, just over 10 minutes from Vilcabamba, and less than 5 from Malacatos.

​

The topography is mostly semi-flat and clean, with little tall vegetation. There are six to seven large semi-flat areas of about 500–600 m² each, perfect for building houses, cabins, or recreational spaces. The soil is fertile and cultivable, suitable for vegetables and grains. As for water, the property has springs from the mountains, with an approximate flow of three inches, shared with the neighbor, that can be brought directly onto the land. It does not currently have an electrical connection, but the power grid is about 500 meters away. As an alternative, solar panels can be installed, and once a house is built, a meter can be requested.

​

The climate is very pleasant: in the upper part there is a fresh breeze without being cold, while in the lower part the sensation is warmer during the day. From several points of the property you can enjoy spectacular landscapes with views of Mandango and the surrounding mountains. Vehicle access reaches the flat entrance area, where there is already a neighboring construction. To reach the higher part, a tall vehicle or 4x4 is recommended, as the road is rustic. In terms of connectivity, mobile signal covers almost the entire property, although internet access is limited and variable: good enough for calls, but with unstable data connection in some spots.

​

Currently the land is used as pasture, but its potential is broad: it can be dedicated to livestock, agricultural projects, Airbnb-type investment, or sustainable tourism development. It is a very quiet area, with no neighbors living in the upper part, ideal for those seeking privacy and distance from towns. Local transportation is affordable: a taxi from the area known as “la llave/la manguera” to the upper part costs around $4. The property also has about eight eucalyptus trees suitable for construction, while the rest of the land is clean and ready for large or small-scale planting.

​

The farm borders the Podocarpus National Park, ensuring pure air, quality water, and a privileged natural environment. Thanks to its climate—slightly cooler than Malacatos and with more constant year-round rainfall—it provides an ideal setting for both warm and cool weather crops. Granadilla, tree tomato, grapes, apples, avocados, bananas, and citrus fruits thrive easily here.
