Casa Marañon has a clean, modern aesthetic, and is furnished for comfort. It's consciously designed to bring family and friends together, while also providing ample space for you to sit quietly with a book, or nap as rain falls in the forest just outside the back doors. With 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths, this home is perfect for a family, and yet isn’t too large to keep up with, or without, a housekeeper. The master bedroom has its own private balcony overlooking the backyard. The backyard is shaded by multiple mature mango and marañon (cashew) trees and provides a clear view of the lush mountain ridge beyond. Wake to the sound of wildlife as the sun rises, and savor slow sunsets as the last light dips over the ridge. For the adventurous soul, there is even a flat rooftop space (accessible by ladder) with outdoor lounge chairs that is absolutely perfect for stargazing on a clear night. The kitchen and laundry room boast a full suite of high quality appliances (even including instant boiling water) as well as a gas range, which is preferable both for cooking enthusiasts and for moments when the power goes out. Some practical bits: The home is constructed with concrete, and aside from typical rain gutter cleaning and tree trimming, it requires very little maintenance. There are also two bodegas (storage rooms) that are accessed from the outside of the house. One of them is large enough to be used as a small private office if desired. La Ecovilla’s community spaces include an infinity pool, basketball, soccer and pickleball court, yoga deck, rancho (gathering / party space), fire ring, playground, community library, and an organic garden that provides each house with one basket of produce every week. Just outside the gates of our community, the area provides many opportunities for outdoor recreation as well. Run, or hike for miles on the largely untraveled mountain dirt road, visit the local mountain bike park, take your children to splash in the river, or join a group of intrepid neighbors for the infamous river walk. 3 bedrooms 2 1/2 bathrooms
