Property Description

Welcome to FINCA BURROBAMBA

 

Nearly 4 hectares extending from canal at top to the Piscobamba river below with many flat parts, includes two large orchards with mature citrus trees, avocados, mangos, bananas, coffee, & more. A property with truly abundant fruit trees. At least 50 trees planted in the last 5 years (mango, papaya, chrimoya, fig, plum, grapefruit, pear, apple, peach, cherry, mulberry, almond, macadamia, cinnamon, olive, avocado +) extensive gravity fed irrigation system from clean canal, over 10k litters of water storage (cisterns) for pastures, orchards, and gardens. Extensive fencing and two shelters for livestock (donkeys, horses, cows) & large contained area with small shelter for dogs, goats, or poultry.

 

3 homes, all accessible by a well-maintained driveway: 2br brick guesthouse up top, 1br wood & brick cabin surrounded by extensive gardens, & 2 story adobe home with many artistic touches & solid construction (including a 3m deep foundation & eucalyptus beams harvested from the land); also a beautifully handcrafted bamboo/wood camping structure near the river; and at least two more suitable sites for building homes near the driveway off-grid, solar power in main home; cold storage/root cellar; very low emf (verified by professionals); internet available in two sites; ability to connect to grid if desired outdoor shower house & tub in the central orchard (26-liter calefón).

 

A fully private property, no neighbours living within 2km! We’re at the end of the canal road, surrounded only by cows & agriculture; no roosters, barking dogs, or loud parties; sleep peacefully with the sound of the river below.

 

Incredible views of the surrounding mountains and river from each level, 10-minute drive (canal road) or 20-minute walk along the river to the bridge in Quinara; multiple restaurants, tiendas, hardware stores, & building materials available in Quinara downtown, as well as primary & secondary schools, church, coliseum, & our own Sunday market; serviced by two bus companies & multiple taxi cooperatives; local police presence.

 

Burrobamba was originally developed as an animal sanctuary, & many humans have come here to heal from health problems related to emf exposure & other neurological conditions. It’s all been built in less than 4 years, so everything is still practically new! We’ve dug out two natural (tilapia) ponds near the river where we’re also growing camote, yuca, & zanahoria blanca; and we’ve planted many medicinal plants.

 

NO CHEMICALS used on the property for at least 4 years.
