A rare opportunity to secure a luxury eco-home before construction is completed. Located in Rancho Aguadulce, just four minutes from Playa Negra and within minutes of Avellanas, Playa Blanca, and Junquillal, this home seamlessly blends traditional craftsmanship with modern sustainable design, prioritizing comfort, durability, and harmony with nature. Designed by renowned architect Octavio Van Praag, it incorporates high-quality natural materials that enhance both aesthetics and functionality.
Situated on a 5,500 m² lot with a maturing forest, the home is designed around an elegant interior courtyard, maximizing natural light, airflow, and privacy. Its spacious terraces extend the living areas outdoors, creating a seamless connection to the surrounding environment. The high ceilings are crafted with hand-selected bamboo, bringing warmth and organic beauty, while stone cladding regulates indoor temperature for enhanced thermal comfort. The clay tile floors not only add a timeless rustic charm but also contribute to energy efficiency by maintaining cool indoor temperatures.
The kitchen and living areas flow effortlessly into the outdoor spaces, making it ideal for both relaxation and entertaining. A saltwater pool minimizes water consumption and reduces chlorine dependence, reinforcing the home’s eco-conscious approach. Every design element is carefully chosen to enhance sustainability, from the natural ventilation system to the use of locally sourced materials that reduce environmental impact. The property also includes permits for an additional home, making it a unique investment opportunity.
