Have you ever dreamed of a life where the morning air smells like citrus and your biggest daily decision is whether to read by the fireplace or under the glow of a skylight? This stunning single-level ranch is more than just a home—it’s a private retreat designed for those who value peace without sacrificing the convenience of town living. Here, the "eternal spring" of the Andes isn't just a phrase; it’s a lifestyle that flows effortlessly from your cozy living room into a garden that feels like your own personal park.
The setting
Tucked in a part of Cotacachi that gives you genuine breathing room without putting you far from anything, this home threads the needle between country tranquility and urban convenience. The entire property is walled for privacy — a fully enclosed outdoor sanctuary where kids, pets, and afternoon naps are all equally welcome.
The heart of the home
The open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area is the kind of layout that makes daily life genuinely easy. Vaulted native hardwood ceilings arc overhead, lending warmth to every corner, while an ornate custom wood-burning fireplace in the living room turns cool evenings into something to look forward to. Everything flows naturally — from cooking to dining to unwinding — without a wall in the way.
- Vaulted native hardwood ceilings throughout the main living areas
- Custom ornate wood-burning fireplace in the living room
- Kitchen with hardwood cabinetry above and below, generous counter space, and walk-in pantry with floor-to-ceiling shelving
- Recently upgraded laminate flooring — durable and low maintenance throughout
The sunroom — the crown jewel
Six skylights. Twin sets of ornate iron French doors — one opening from the dining room, one from the master bedroom. A custom Chorlavi tile fireplace. A long sewing or hobby table. Comfortable seating and lush garden views on every side. The sunroom is the kind of bonus space you didn't know you needed until you step inside and immediately never want to leave. Step through those French doors and you're directly in the garden, where avocados, lemons, and oranges are yours to harvest year-round. The sunroom roof has been recently waterproofed with shielding barriers, and new screens added for fresh ventilation.
Bedrooms built for comfort
The master bedroom runs the full depth of one wing of the home, featuring a wall-length run of built-in closets, cabinets, and drawers — storage that actually solves the problem. The ensuite bathroom has his-and-her sinks, good lighting, and ventilation that keeps the space fresh. At the opposite end of the home, the guest bedroom is bright, private, and has its own ensuite bathroom — perfect for visitors who want their own corner of the house.
The garden
The enclosed garden is the property's soul. Walled on all sides for total privacy, it's a thriving outdoor space with established fruit trees — avocado, lemon, and orange — producing fresh fruit through every season. Whether you're pottering in the flowerbeds, picking breakfast from the trees, or simply sitting in the sun, this garden earns its place as one of the home's most cherished features.
- Fully walled perimeter for privacy and outdoor safety
- Year-round fruit production: avocado, lemon, and orange trees
