Jardin de Pilar
For Sale By Owner!
If you've stayed with us, you'll remember that Jardin de Pilar is an absolutely one-of-a-kind lush oasis in the heart of Todos Santos' Historic District--a wonderfully styled and landscaped gem, with pebbled pool, towering palms, bamboo and mangos, privately tucked away within its gated walls, only 2 blacks away from 5-star dining and excellent art galleries.
Many of our guests have told us that they would love to live in such an entrancing garden setting.
Jardin de Pilar, this magnificent oasis in the heart of Todos Santos, is now for sale. If you have dreamed of owning your own 'place in the sun', you now can. Or, if you know someone who is ready to make their dream a reality, we would like to show our appreciation for your referral by offering a finder's fee of 1% of the sale price.
It's perfect for a couple, with a spacious area for entertaining, overlooking the private gardens, or for a family with older childen who would enjoy their own private space. It would make a great spa, or could continue to be used for rentals, as we have done, with room for more rental units.
There are a total of 4 bedroom/bath areas on the property,
with room for at least 2 more.
The main house gives you indoor/outdoor living at its finest, with the 'outdoor' living/dining/kitchen areas, roofed and partially enclosed by windows overlooking, and opening onto a lush, private garden area. Indoors from this spacious living area is another living room, bedroom, and custom-tiled bath. The kitchen with its island workstation is also beautifully tiled. Floors and stairs are all lovely custom polido, inset with local flagstone accents.
Leaving the home's private garden, venturing down the stone walkway overhung with bananas and palms, you come to the custom pebbled pool with its native stone patio, partially shaded by towering palms, and surrounded by palms, bananas, ferns, plumeria, and lilies.
On this level is another private gated area, with bedroom and bath casitas, and private patio with attractive stonework canal. The bedroom casita's plate glass windows and sliding doors overlook and open onto the terraced private garden area. The bedroom has a built-in, king-size bed, and lovely polido floors, with matching polido countertops. The bath casita is custom-tiled, with an impressive walk-in tub/shower area.
After crossing the pool patio, passing the giant bird-of-paradise, and ducking beneath the climbing giant philodendron, a set of terraced stone stairs leads you down beneath groves of giant bamboo to the circular stone sitting area near the second suite of casitas. This shaded island of calm beneath the whispering bamboo has entranced many guests.
The second casita suite, adjacent to the meditation area, features one casita with combined bedroom/bath areas with its own intimate patio under a stand of yellow bamboo. The spacious windows of this bedroom casita open upon the private garden courtyard and the kitchenette casita with its sitting area. More bamboo groves sway overhead, allowing a tranquil solitude in this secluded corner of the property.
This 2/3 acre property also includes a 3-room caretaker's cottage or guest house adjacent to the 2-car garage. Facing Calle del Pilar is an excellent site for a commercial enterprise, with an existing foundation for a 2-story building. This provides the possibility of a retail store or an artist's studio with another living area above. There is yet more room for further additions on the property. Next to the main home is a separate building with office and adjacent laundry. On the level of the pool patio is a gated organic garden area.
