Casa Natureza at Monteran Sale Price: $1,500,0000 Rental price: $7,000 The best term to describe the architecture of this inviting home is biophilia. What is biophilia? Among other details, our innate sense of connecting with nature and other forms of life. The renowned architect Jean André Garnier manages to pragmatize the term in this residence in such an exact way that there are parts where it is hard to distinguish the inside from the outside of the residence. The connection occurs right when the residence greets its guests with three marble stairs surrounded by water that expand until they end up as a beautiful water mirror through which both sides of the house are bordered. The combination of the four elements, earth, air, fire, and water characterize the design of the house and strategically placed lights create different environments. The entrance of Casa Natureza is through an iron door that rotates 360 degrees around its axis supported by a wooden frame, and on both sides of this entrance there are two tall windows that make up the facade of the residence and are supported by two columns in gray exposed stamped concrete that resemble wood and extend towards the back, forming part of the foyer.

From the foyer you can see until the end of the social area. It seems like a single wide and long space, but is divided in two by floor to ceiling glass that closes in accordion style doors. The entrance to the social area is framed on both sides by a decorative partition with die-cut figures in brown through which the air passes, evoking the earth element. As with the rest of the residence, this whole area has large German-framed windows that provide both noise insulation and weather protection. In front of the foyer, to the right and left, you will find the formal living and dining rooms. To the back, behind the glass wall, there is a long rectangular covered terrace that mirrors the informal living and dining rooms. This overlooks the garden, which features a beautiful L-shaped firepit with built-in seating made in the earth. The garden is very large, full of nature, and borders the entire house. In a covered and private part of it, there is a gym with a half bath. From the terraces overlooking the garden, on the left side, there is an entrance to the kitchen. The kitchen begins with a large custom-made dining room with bay window seating.  There is also a BBQ area and a spectacular large square island with a quartz countertop. It includes stainless steel appliances, Italian custom-made cabinets, and a spacious distribution that revolves around the large central kitchen island.

CASA MAGNOLIA Where a Lifetime of Dreams Can Become a New Story Casa Magnolia was born from a dream. It was conceived and built by a couple who spent many years working and saving with a deeply meaningful purpose: to create a home where they could fully enjoy a new chapter of their lives, surrounded by family and the people they loved most. Every space was thoughtfully designed for gathering and celebration. The bedrooms were created to welcome the entire family during holidays; the expansive social areas were envisioned for entertaining and displaying the art collection they had carefully gathered over the years; and the gardens were designed as a place where the youngest members of the family could play, explore, and create memories of their own. From the moment one enters, Casa Magnolia conveys timeless elegance. A magnificent chandelier and an impressive staircase welcome guests into a residence reminiscent of the gracious architecture and refined character of the grand homes of the American South. The social areas are undoubtedly the heart of this exceptional property. Generously proportioned living rooms and a spacious dining area were designed to comfortably accommodate large gatherings, making the residence an ideal setting for family celebrations, intimate occasions, and special events. A spectacular, expansive terrace extends toward the generous garden, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. Here, the property takes on a special character: a place where dinner can become a celebration, a gathering can become an occasion, and every encounter can become a lasting memory. Casa Magnolia also offers an exceptional dimension of versatility and potential. The property includes a storage area and generous parking space, providing flexibility for an additional project —whether a separate residence, complementary spaces, or a commercial concept. Its mixed-use designation adds significant value, particularly in Pavas, an area that has evolved into an increasingly dynamic commercial and business district. This rare combination of history, scale, strategic location, and potential for transformation makes Casa Magnolia a truly distinctive property. Today, this remarkable home awaits a new family, a new project, or a new vision capable of bringing back what it was created for: life, gatherings, art, laughter, and new memories. Because some properties are built to be occupied. Casa Magnolia was built to be lived.
