Mountain Home With Pool In Altos De Maria

Located in the idyllic community of Altos de Maria, nestled within the mountains of Sora, this stunning chalet combines the exclusivity of a gated community with the convenience of being just an hour and a half from Panama City.

Altos de Maria is ideally situated about 30 minutes from Pacific beaches and world-class golf resorts, with its own private mountain road to Valle de Anton.

The home itself is a beautiful chalet constructed of tropical hardwood, perched on a hillside with direct views of the dramatic Cerio Picacho. This two-story home offers three bedrooms and two bathrooms, complemented by an open concept kitchen and dining room.

The house features a wrap-around deck with ceramic tile floors, offering panoramic views of the stunning landscape. Underneath the home are two covered parking spaces and storage.

The property, built on a hill to maximize the views from every window, stretches over 2130 square meters, sloping up to a natural backdrop of mountain forest. A curved driveway climbs to the building site, providing privacy from the main road with elevation.

The front yard boasts a pool with a slide and one of the two Ranchos for shaded outdoor relaxation.

The second Rancho is at the top of the property, reachable by a staircase that offers a rewarding million-dollar view of the valley and mountain chain. An irrigation system runs throughout the property for easy maintenance. The home is a charming deal, listed for sale at a price $385,000 under its evaluated value of $460,000.

Living in the pristine natural setting of Altos de Maria offers many benefits. The community has set aside communal green areas to prevent overdevelopment, and mountain trails provide endless opportunities for exploration.
