20968 - Modern mountain home with rental return in Santa Ana

Description:

Casa Luz entre Árboles - Montaña del Sol | Santa Ana

Perched in the mountains of Santa Ana, within the private community of Montaña del Sol, Casa Luz entre Árboles represents contemporary architecture designed to coexist with its natural surroundings and evolve over time.

Built in 2023 on a 2,176 m² lot surrounded by mature forest, this 250 m² residence combines design, privacy, and expansion potential in one of the most established eco-conscious communities in the Central Valley.

The property is currently rented and generating income, making it an attractive option both for those seeking a future residence and for investors who prioritize cash flow and medium-term appreciation.

Architecture in Dialogue with the Forest
From the main entrance, the home reveals its character through a double-height foyer that frames the natural landscape.

Light flows through floor-to-ceiling windows, integrating the surrounding forest as an active element of the interior experience.

The material palette is honest and contemporary: exposed concrete, natural wood, and matte black accents. The interior circulation is clear and functional, connecting kitchen, dining, and living areas in an open-concept layout that extends toward the covered terrace and garden.

One of the home’s most distinctive features is the floating staircase, crafted in wood with a black structure and located in the TV lounge. More than a functional element, it serves as a sculptural centerpiece that organizes the main social space.

Private Spaces and Future Potential
The primary suite incorporates an internal light garden that enhances natural illumination and cross-ventilation. It includes a private terrace, spacious walk-in closet, and spa-style open bathroom.

The upper level, currently configured as a third bedroom or flexible space, was structurally designed to accommodate an additional bathroom or to be transformed into a second primary suite, maintaining architectural coherence.
The lot offers additional space for future expansion such as independent modules, a studio, or a wellness area without compromising privacy or its relationship with the surrounding landscape.

Community and Setting
Montaña del Sol is a gated residential community with 24/7 security and its own private potable water system. Its location allows quick access to Route 27, international schools, medical services, and commercial areas, while preserving a mature forest environment and a cooler mountain climate.

It is a community that attracts residents who value privacy, nature, and long-term stability.

Investment Perspective
The property currently generates rental income with a projected return between 5.8% and 6.7%. Its main attributes as an asset include:
A generous lot within an established mountain setting
Architecture designed and signed by its owner (architect)
Modular layout with expansion potential
Established community with regulation and security
Appreciation potential in the Santa Ana mountain area

Casa Luz entre Árboles is not a residence designed to maximize density, but to offer space, adaptability, and permanence.

It is a property suited for those seeking a responsible investment today, with the option to make it their home tomorrow.
