Beach House for Sale in Calle Fosforera, Mompiche, Esmeraldas, Ecuador

Investor Versatility in Tropical Surfer's Paradise

Asking Price: 195,000 USD
(Negotiable)
Custom-built, three-story bamboo home in the iconic coastal village of Mompiche, Esmeraldas, Ecuador. With the exception of hardwood floors, this fully furnished 4BR, 1.5BA is constructed entirely of locally-sourced eco-alternative building materials: giant bamboo, palm trunks, and thatch. Enclosed living space across the three floors totals 141 square meters (1,500+ square feet), with roughly half of this 191 square meter property occupied by a yard full of lush tropical vegetation. Exuding character and warmth, this beach home gives the feel of open-air living due to its unique structural design. The property has been meticulously maintained since it was built in 2009 by expert bamboo craftsman Dairon Cobo, including a refinishing of hardwood floors and exteriors, roof thatch replacement, regular pest prevention treatments, and the recent installation of a new perimeter fence and hardwood doors throughout.

Situated in the heart of Mompiche's most sought-after neighborhood and less than 50 steps from the beach, this property provides tremendous investor versatility. Straightforward conversion to a charming beach hotel, a surfer's dream vacation spot in front of South America's longest left-breaking wave, or a permanent eco-residence for the adventurer looking to escape for good..e choice is yours. The home has been rented on Airbnb since 2014, gaining a loyal following of clientele in that time – see reviews and photos at the listing titled Tropical Bamboo Paradise Beach Home. Mompiche is the Ecuadorian coast's up-and-coming surf/ecotourism destination, with a steadily growing influx of visitors seen over the past decade.

Key highlights of the property include:

• views of the Pacific Ocean and surrounding jungle hills from 2nd & 3rd floors
• interior suspended bamboo bridge with bird's eye view of kitchen
• well-designed kitchen with tiled island & ample shelving, plus 2-door chrome refrigerator
• tiled "greenhouse" style lounging area with A-frame windows in master bedroom
• balconies on all 3 floors
• bio-digester septic system
• gravity-based water distribution system
• spacious dual shower in master bathroom, installation-ready for hot water
• covered car port with modern ground-level security system
• legally registered deed and all property taxes up to date

This home achieves the perfect balance between eco-friendly rustic paradise and the essentials of comfortable living.

Please note when researching Mompiche that the all-inclusive “DeCameron Mompiche” resort is not located in the village despite its name; they are a 10-minute drive away in the village of Portete.
