Offered for the first time in more than 60 years, this remarkable family-held estate presents a once-in-a-generation opportunity. Set on nearly three acres bordered by the protected natural corridor of the Quebrada El Este, the property enjoys a privileged setting surrounded by mature forest, spectacular views, and enduring privacy.
Ideally positioned just 25 minutes from the capital, it combines the serenity of a secluded retreat with convenient access to the cultural, commercial, and lifestyle amenities of a major city. Designed for those who value space, wellness, and connection to nature, the property offers exceptional environmental quality, fresh air, and a peaceful setting rarely found so close to an urban center.
The estate encompasses four distinct residences within one expansive parcel, all accessed through a private entrance. In total, the property features 8 bedrooms, 8.5 bathrooms, 5 garage spaces, and extensive additional parking capacity — ideal for a large or multi-generational family, or as a private compound.
For developers and builders: the municipality has issued an official land-use certificate confirming compatibility for a vertical residential condominium project (up to 4 stories, 70% site coverage), making this one of the few parcels of this size and location with confirmed multi-unit development potential. Buildable area studies and zoning documentation available on request.
A truly rare offering where legacy, nature, and opportunity converge.
