Property Description:
A well-built property that incorporates the magic of Vilcabamba into its location, design, and execution.Located along a well-maintained dirt road, just 7 minutes by car from the town of Vilcabamba, this is a truly special and rare property.
Situated at the end of a private valley, with stunning views and multiple water sources, it offers the perfect balance between proximity to town and complete privacy, peace, and tranquility.
Best of all, the entire property is positioned to take full advantage of the breathtaking views and the unique energy of the mythical Mandango Mountain.
In total, the property features three homes distributed across 2.8 hectares (6.9 acres) of land, each overlooking the lush green mountains of southern Ecuador.
As you ascend the small dirt road, which includes well-built cement tracks for traction, and pass a couple of neighboring properties, you arrive at a dead end where a private driveway rises to the left. Entering through a large metal security gate, you reach the first of the three homes.
The first house, located on the lower part of the property, features 3 bedrooms and 1 bathroom. It is the most rustic of the three homes and is perfect as a guesthouse or rental unit, offering simple yet charming living spaces.
Just below this house there is also a large workshop, which could easily be converted into an additional guesthouse or a caretaker’s cottage.
Additionally, a large storage unit with electricity is located just above this home.
Continuing up the driveway, passing cultivated areas, wild fruit trees, carefully designed stone walkways, and ornamental landscaping, you arrive at the second home.
This open-concept 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom home, with approximately 80 m² (861 ft²) of living space, features high ceilings and a large window overlooking the front lawn, the grounds, and Mandango Mountain. The kitchen, dining, and living area is open, spacious, and filled with natural light, beautifully incorporating stone, ceramic, wood, and adobe finishes to create a warm and inviting atmosphere.
The house also includes a large covered rooftop terrace, perfect for yoga sessions, gatherings, or simply enjoying the scenery. The terrace currently includes exercise equipment, creating an ideal wellness space with spectacular views. Surrounding the house there is also a fire pit area, perfect for outdoor gatherings and enjoying peaceful evenings under the stars.
Following a stone pathway past more fruit trees, gardens, and a beautiful lawn, you arrive at the main house, which offers 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom with approximately 120 m² (1,292 ft²) of space.
In its current layout, the ground floor includes a separate office or workshop space, a large storage room behind it, and a beautiful covered patio in front. This level could easily be connected to the upper house or converted into a separate guest or rental unit.
The main living space is located on the second floor. After ascending the metal stairs, you enter a spacious sunroom-style living area, where the entire front wall is made of glass windows, showcasing the majestic mountain views with Mandango prominently featured in the landscape.
Directly behind this seating area is a well-designed kitchen filled with natural light, featuring wooden cabinetry, porcelain countertops, a double sink, and an open, airy feel.
Continuing past the kitchen to the left is a large bathroom with a two-person bathtub and ornamental stonework. To the right is the bedroom, and behind the bedroom there is a large covered patio and nature sanctuary, featuring a man-made waterfall, a large crystal, and a wonderfully peaceful space to relax while enjoying the year-round warm climate and the sounds of nature. There is also a small office located off the back porch.
