The architectural style is Mexican/Spanish Hacienda. The construction was completed in July 2008, and built with high quality materials: structural walls that are 45cm wide (double brick was used), unique wooden pieces in the ceiling and roof structure, foundation of 10cm covered with a layer of geomembrane and on top, mud lines where the convex roof tiles are allocated. This amazing technique creates an air camera to isolate the roof and provides very low maintenance. Internal flooring of the house is porcelain and external floors with artisanal bricks brought from Cuenca. Some special features of the house include: 1. Isolation of the foundation with geo membrane to avoid humidity from coming up the walls. 2. All water pipelines are stainless steel of ¾” the main ring and ½” of consumption points. The hot water has a closed circuit with a recirculation pump to avoid the waste of energy and water. 3. The wooden windows are ARTEMPO brand and brought from Quito. 4. The closets and kitchen cabinets are built in moisture proof, MDF of the brand AKTUEL (from Cuenca.) Come see the house for yourself… contact Inti Luz Properties today to make an appointment!
