Picture yourself on a nearly wrap-around porch, coffee in hand, watching the morning light settle over Mount Cotacachi while the garden around you hums quietly with color and life. No rush. No noise. Just your home, your land, and one of the most beautiful volcanic landscapes in Ecuador doing what it does best. This is the daily reality this fully furnished, single-level home offers — and at $257,000, it's a reality worth stepping into.
A Private Community Setting That Feels Like an Escape
Tucked within an intimate, private community in Cotacachi, Imbabura, this property occupies a world of its own. The lot spans an extraordinary 16,630 sq ft (1,545 m²) — a rare expanse of land that has been lovingly shaped into a park-like sanctuary over the years. Mature trees, curated shrubs, blooming flowers, and a manicured lawn create the kind of exterior that makes guests slow their pace the moment they arrive. The mountain views of Cotacachi volcano anchor the whole scene with quiet, breathtaking permanence.
Architecture With Character and Soul
Built in 2010 from concrete and stucco and crowned with a classic clay tile roof, this home was designed with a clear intention: to feel both elegant and genuinely livable. The single-story split floor plan delivers on that promise completely.

Interiors That Reward Every Glance
Walk through the front door and the open-concept living and dining area immediately draws you in. An elegant fireplace anchors the room while beamed ceilings rise overhead and skylights pour daylight into every corner — the kind of architectural detail that makes a space feel both grand and intimate at the same time.
The European-inspired kitchen runs the full length of the back wall, featuring granite countertops, a large center island, stainless steel appliances, designer light fixtures, and cabinetry that offers storage most home cooks only dream about. It's a kitchen that invites you to actually cook — and to linger afterward.
Just off the entryway, a fully enclosed sunroom extends the living space in the most charming way possible. Bathed in light, this flexible retreat works beautifully as a reading nook, a morning coffee spot, a casual sitting room, or an overflow entertaining area — with a secondary exit to the backyard that makes it as practical as it is lovely.
Two Private Suites, Zero Compromise
The split floor plan keeps both bedrooms at opposite ends of the home, giving everyone their own corner of the world:
- The guest bedroom features rich hardwood floors, wood-trimmed windows, solid wood cabinetry, a private ensuite bath, and a dedicated laundry area with exterior access
- The primary suite mirrors that same warmth — hardwood floors, wood-trimmed windows, generous closet space, and a private ensuite bathroom
- A spacious storage bodega off the primary side opens directly to the backyard, adding practical utility without disrupting the home's refined aesthetic
