Tierra Alta is an ancient concept but a new idea for this area: Mountain cabins in a beautiful oak forest near El Tuito, less than an hour's drive from Puerto Vallarta. Cabin owners will use them for weekend escapes or for getaway vacations. Some will be for full time retirement and can be engineered for single story living - driveway to living room.
At Tierra Alta, the weather is noticeably cooler, fresher, and drier. The land is rolling foothills with large, old oak trees. Lot sizes are a minimum of 1,600m2 - nearly a half-acre - with wonderful views of the valley below, that is filled with all sorts of beautiful birds, wild macaws and parrots, deer, and collared peccaries.
Wild Pacific Shore beaches are just 45 minutes away. No traffic. Tranquility and the best weather on the planet. Four minutes from El Tuito, where the food is excellent. Satellite TV and broad band internet access. Water from our tested well. Electrical service is ready for hook up, and the cabins are pre-treated for termites.
Tierra Alta will have about 28 building sites in a condo regimen with reasonable rules and yearly fees. The land has clear title. No Ejido problems. One community pool and roofed outdoor cooking area is now available. A second will be built when needed.

If you would like to see what the Tierra Alta lifestyle offers you, call Tropicasa Realty's Wayne Franklin at (322) 222-6505, to set an appointment to preview the model cabin and breathe the fresh mountain air of El Tuito.
