Although this is a working Farm, no farm animals will be permitted within the residential areas.  It is likely that we will provide a community amenity  within the working farm area for home owners to keep a few personal  animals.

Yes, that could happen.

Each house will be independent.

We will be supplying fresh spring water from our own natural springs on the farm. Our spring are located high up on the mountain, naturally protected from contamination. We will install a meter for each home, and water usage will be billed monthly, based on water used.

Solar panels will be located in such a way that do not negatively affect other home owner’s views. Generally, panels will be located on the roof of the car port.

No. Once you sign a contract and agree on a design and scope of work, your project costs are fixed.

A typical time frame for building a 1-3 bedroom house is approximately 6 months. However, there is a waiting time of about 3-9 months before we start building, for permitting and planning.

Once you have signed your contract and transferred funds it will take approximately 3 months to obtain a permit for construction. If you choose to pursue a custom design for you home, our Design Process takes between 3 – 6 months. We can start with site preparation as soon as the contract is signed and funds transferred, so no time is lost.

Some of our the community areas have been up and running some time, you are welcome to arrange a stay in Papagayo, our Luxury Tree House. Management and security is live and running and you will be able to rent out the Villa immediately. By the end of 2025 most of the proposed community areas will be built and ready for use.

Yes, we have been developing Spirit Mountain over the last 20 years and we have checked the land with various engineers and are taking every possible precaution to develop this project in an environmentally sustainable manner.

The Dominican Republic has several zoning districts. Estancia Natura is a working Coffee Plantation and is zoned agricultural and is a privately manages environmental protected area with a dedicated purpose for ecotourism.

The contractors we work with have a year guarantee on labor and materials. Like most houses anywhere in the world this is a standard form of guarantee.

We can provide you with our Construction Standards document, which will include this information.

Furniture is not included in the sales price, however, we have interior designers that can work with you on interior furnishings.

This will happen during the Design process. See our process at ROOT-AD.com

There are two standard base models : 2 & 3 bedroom layouts. Our international Team of Architects can design a custom home if desired.

The homeowner is responsible for all utilities in their property, such as water(provided by EN), LP Gas, internet connection, etc. The communal expenses will be paid for by Estancia Natura out of the HOA fees.

The foundation will be poured concrete (minimal amounts to lower our environmental impact). The flooring will be polished concrete and the building envelope will be made out of poured concrete, rammed earth, stone, wood, steel and glass.

While each home has a different distance from its neighbors, the average lot size of 6,000m2+ provides ample space between homes. The vision is that our residents feel completely encompassed by nature, not living on top of one another, while at the same time being part of a vibrant community.

Pools are one of the many “options” and are not required amenities for the homes.v
