With the opening of the Casa del Sol model home in the Colina del Sol residential development, those looking to invest in Baja real estate can find it very easy to imagine themselves in this scene.
Completed in January, the Casa del Sol model is the flagship design of the Colina del Sol development. As onsite sales representative, Yoli Georgelos says, “The designs of the Casa del Sol, Casa de la Luna and the new Casa de Estrella brings the outdoors, indoors. With large windows and vaulted ceilings, while nearly every room of the two designs opens to the outdoors.”
The 2046s/f Casa de Sol is the flagship home and one of three floor plans being built by Dec Developments on the site. Currently, a Casa de la Luna model home is being constructed not far from the Casa de Sol. The Casa de la Luna is slightly smaller in square footage but offers a spectacular rooftop garden area. Just released is the Casa de Estrella design for the Colina del Sol project. The new design will offer one and two bedroom models at a very affordable price.
The kitchen with breakfast bar is open to the living and dining areas while providing the ample cooking areas and quality appliances that North American buyers require. With plenty of natural lighting and spacious polished concrete countertops you can easily imagine yourself entertaining or just enjoying a morning coffee to the colors of the desert sunrise filtering in through the large windows in the living and dining areas. The adjoining dining room offers doorwalls on 2 sides overlooking the home’s patio.
The living room of the Casa del Sol model opens onto the optional pool in the courtyard as does the master bedroom. The cool reflections of the pool and the bright interior of the home provide a cheerful atmosphere which reinforces the tranquility of Baja living. The living room is certainly the focal point of the Casa del Sol. Opening to the spacious kitchen and dining areas, the sunken living room directs you to the windows opening onto the courtyard. A fireplace, for those cooler winter nights adds a dramatic touch to the design.

The open stairs and balcony provide a dramatic place from which to survey your domain, but it turns out to be a just a prelude to the rooftop terrace. This particular model home was furnished with an entertainment/wet bar area, where the residents will be able to enjoy a morning coffee and watch the sunrise over the Sea of Cortez or a frosty beverage in the cool of the evening as the sun sets to the west behind the Sierra Lagunas. The palapa roof overhead gives the roof top terrace a very ‘Baja feel’ and makes it a very comfortable place to catch a siesta and escape the sun in the heat of the day.
The master suite opens onto the patio, and in the case of this model home, onto the pool with large sliding doorwalls. Visitors to the Casa del Sol model can recline on the bed and visualize their own wakening, looking out onto another sunny Baja Sur morning.
