Casa Budha · Ashiyana Eco Village

A bioconstruction home inside one of Brazil's most intentional ecovillages — where blue-and-yellow macaws visit the garden and a yoga retreat is next door.

Casa Budha · Ashiyana Eco Village

Casa Ashiyana sits within Ashiyana Eco Village, a 94,000 m² community of 32 plots in Alto Paraíso, 1.5 km from the city center along the dirt road that leads to Cachoeiras das Loquinhas. Seventy percent of the total area is preserved as nature — legal reserve, green areas, and common land. The remaining thirty percent is where people live, intentionally.

The house was built in 2021 using bioconstruction techniques. Wood columns, wooden stairs, wooden railings. An ecological biodigester pit. A large front balcony with panoramic views of the valley. A mezzanine above the bedrooms with its own deck overlooking the garden and the cerrado. The layout is simple and generous: two bedrooms, one suite, a large combined living and kitchen area, laundry room with pantry, and backyard gardens with a vegetable garden and herb and flower beds.

In front of the house, a garden with a pergola and a two-meter Buddha statue — sculpted by a visual artist from Rio Grande do Sul — creates a threshold between the outside world and the life inside. In the back, birds arrive without invitation: blue-and-yellow macaws, maracanãs, toucans, families of marmosets and opossums move through regularly.

The ecovillage's common areas include a lounge with bathrooms, pergola and showers, a natural pool, a small agroforest, and a nursery of native Cerrado seedlings. The community is guided by permaculture principles and the Global Ecovillage Network. There are construction guidelines, a technical manual, and a residents' association formally registered at the notary's office.

Adjoining the condominium is the Ashiyana Retreat and Yoga Center — hosting yoga, ecstatic dance, tantra, ayurveda, chakra healing, and detoxification programs year-round. For a buyer aligned with this world, the proximity is not incidental. It is the point.

— A NOTE FROM CRIS

I show Casa Ashiyana to a very specific kind of buyer — someone who isn't just looking for a house, but for a community and a way of living. Ashiyana Eco Village is one of the most thoughtfully designed residential communities I know of in Chapada. The standards are real: permaculture principles, construction guidelines, formal governance. The people who live there chose it deliberately. And then there's the wildlife — the macaws and toucans that visit the garden are not occasional sightings. They are part of daily life here. For someone who wants to live inside the nature of Chapada rather than near it, this is the closest you can get.

— PRACTICAL NOTES FOR FOREIGN BUYERS

Brazilian banks do not offer mortgages to foreign buyers — purchasing requires available capital. The buyer is responsible for notary costs and the ITBI property transfer tax (2–3% of the property value). Cris handles every step of this process with you.
