REDUCED $100,000!!! NOW ONLY $695,000!!! Welcome to Rovetto Casa de Gigantones, a living masterpiece perched in the sun-drenched upper Yunguilla Valley, where the emerald slopes of the Andes rise like a protective wall and the sky opens wide in every direction. This American-designed villa isn't just a home—it is a sanctuary of style and soul, where every curve, color, and corner tells a story. As you arrive, a koi pond sparkles under dappled sunlight, its gentle waterfall humming beside a massive pivot door inset with radiant stained glass. Inside, light dances across polished surfaces. The gourmet kitchen—with its sleek appliances and hidden pantry—flows effortlessly to a tiled carport and discreet storage. The dining area stretches with ease, ready for grand dinners or casual coffee mornings. In the heart of the home, a green-stone fireplace glows between the living and dining spaces, framed by a breathtaking peacock stained-glass window—an explosion of jewel tones that catch the changing light. The main suite is pure indulgence: a private retreat with its own fireplace, spa bath, morning coffee bar, and a jaw-dropping view across treetops to the valley below, framed by 12,000-foot peaks. Guests are treated like royalty in a spacious suite with Murphy bed, kitchenette, and private entrance. There's a creative nook for artists or gamers, and a peaceful office that doubles as a cozy bedroom, complete with an art niche. Follow the handcrafted caoba staircase to a vibrant lower level that stuns: a contra-current solar-heated swimming pool, an eight-person hot spa, and a luxe shower room. Play a round of bocce, putt on manicured greens, or kick back in your own sports bar and home gym. A fourth bedroom with half-bath and kitchenette offers more flexibility for guests or staff. There are four and a half elegant bathrooms, heated floors and three fireplaces. A life built around warmth, beauty, and detail. Set in a forward-thinking gated community, you will enjoy underground power lines, water reclamation, and serene, walkable streets. Nearby amenities include a grand clubhouse, indoor pool, spa, gym, sports courts, and a cheerful playground for the little ones. And just beyond—Cuenca, a UNESCO gem bursting with culture, artisanship, and charm is only an hour away. Head west, and in two hours you’re on the Pacific coast: watching whales breach, exploring coral reefs, or kite-surfing along golden beaches. Rovetto Casa de Gigantones isn’t just a home—it’s a vivid, luxurious experience etched into the mountainside. Take a look: https://youtu.be/wZIB1maLEB0
