Oasis San German: Iconic Andean Volcano Views in Cotacachi Ecuador- Three Bedroom Home, Two Independent Casitas, Rental Income
Cotacachi, Cotacachi, Imbabura, Ecuador
Overview
Wake up to volcanoes.
From the expansive windows of this one of a kind 3 bedroom home in Cotacachi, Ecuador, the iconic profiles of Cotacachi and Imbabura volcanoes frame your daily life in breathtaking clarity. Located in Oasis San Germán, one of Cotacachi's newest and most sought after gated communities, this recently upgraded artisan crafted property offers the lifestyle that brings expats and retirees to Ecuador — and rarely lets them leave.
A Home Built With Extraordinary Craftsmanship
This is not a standard build. Every closet, counter, door, and structural pillar in the home is crafted from Seike — one of Ecuador's rarest and most prized Amazonian hardwoods, known locally as chuncho. So rare it is increasingly difficult to source, Seike is prized for its extraordinary durability, its rich golden brown grain, and its ability to remain unchanged for decades. The artisanal floors throughout the home were hand crafted in Cuenca, Ecuador's capital of fine craftsmanship. The kitchen features a one of a kind Italian imported marble counter — unique in the entire region. Arch doors framed in hand carved wood, concave windows that create a sense of infinite space, and architectural details carved directly into the walls make this a home that cannot be replicated at any price.
Income Generating From Day One
Two fully independent casitas — each with its own private entrance and separated by a single shared wall — offer completely self contained living spaces generating potential rental income of up to $700 per month combined. A one bedroom casita and a spacious one to two bedroom casita, both fully furnished and independently accessible, are ready for long term tenants, vacation guests, or Airbnb from the moment you take ownership. Each unit has its own separate fiber optic internet connection — a premium feature for remote workers and digital nomads.
Comfort and Security Built In
Two fireplaces — one in the living room, one in the main bedroom — keep the home warm during cool Andean evenings. A wood burning stove and wood oven on the covered porch create an outdoor living and cooking experience unlike anything available in this market. A jacuzzi in the main bathroom. A covered one car garage. A comprehensive security system including alarm and five cameras positioned around the property. Three storage spaces for the main house, two for the first casita, and one for the second. Independent gas supply systems for each unit ensuring complete self sufficiency.
A Garden That Feeds You
Eighteen organic fruit trees currently in production — so abundantly productive that neighbors regularly enjoy the harvest. Three organic vegetable gardens. A flower garden of color and life that has been lovingly cultivated for years and cannot be replicated overnight. A 1,200 liter water storage tank ensuring consistent supply.
