The words “ecological“, “green“, “environmentally-friendly“, “natural” etc… are used all the time today. Over the past 5 years every product & service has suddenly become “environmentally-friendly“. Whether they are cars, gas companies or tomatoes, they all seem to have become “nature’s best friends”.
Whilst it’s hard to distinguish between the true “green” products & services out there, what is is clear is that this is not just a marketing trend. This is becoming a real desire from all of us. We are all more conscious about how our lifestyle impacts our surroundings, and perhaps more importantly, how it will affect our children’s future. Many of us have already done the basics; trash separation, switched to energy-saving light bulbs, buying local produce, buying organic products, making smarter choices when buying cars etc… These changes are only the start of what is to come. These changes in culture, that have been so hard to establish, are now normal for our children. We have a generation of young adults demanding that their cars, computers, foods and now houses respect nature.
Real de Talpa is a visionary project. It’s not just the label that’s “green”, it’s not a marketing tool, it’s not a sales tool – Real de Talpa is a man’s dream that is becoming a reality.
Located in the heart of the Sierra-Madre Mountains of Jalisco, in the historic mountain town of Talpa de Allende, Real de Talpa is a place where one can change from the inside and live in harmony with nature. This 60 hectare mountain-side reserve will offer families a true nature-getaway, only a short 2.5 hours drive from Puerto Vallarta or Guadalajara and only a 20 minute flight from the Puerto Vallarta international airport.
Each homesite will have a minimum of 10,700 sq.ft deeded land and a choice of 5 home models. This is only the start, investing at Real de Talpa is more than just about the land or the home, it’s about investing into a conservation project and about your life-style. A life-style where people can relax, breathe in the pure mountain air, spend quality time with their family, connect to nature and find their true selves.
The “environmentally friendly” label that we put on Real de Talpa is not a sales tool, it is the true identity of this development. Below, I’ve listed some of the key aspects of Real de Talpa.
Real de Talpa – The earth
The entire reserve has breathtaking views of the village of Talpa de Allende. The land is rich, organic and fertile. Both an orchard & vegetable field will be maintained, for the free use of all owners :
- fresh organic onions
- tomatoes
- zuquinis
- water-melon
- maize
- apples
- carrots
- garlic and much more.
There are 2 fresh-water lakes where owners will be free to fish, along with picnic areas, mountain-bike trails and hiking trails. As horse-back is still a very popular method of transport in this region private stables will also be constructed onsite for owner’s use, along with riding trails. Finally, an on-site zoo will be free to access for all owners creating a great way to educate both our children and ourselves to the wonders of nature.
Zoning is extremely important for a conservation project such as Real de Talpa. The maximum density for each lot is 30% (which means that 70% of each plot of land must remain green). The developer has taken great care to ensure all permits are obtained before constructions starts. Each owner will have a deeded lot and home and all neighboring land has also been marked for similar low-density use – guaranteeing that the views and surroundings will remain.
Real de Talpa – The construction
Every effort is being made to ensure that little negative impact is left on the natural surroundings. The land is carefully laid out, each homesite combining privacy and natural surroundings with incredible vistas. The development is architecturally controlled protecting site lines and privacy. Where possible low impact materials are being used. A low-level lighting and power efficient system is being used throughout the development and all homes will have the option to have installed a solar-power system.
All homes will come equipped with a closed-circuit water management and recycling system. This system will recycle the houses dirty water into water for outdoor and garden use.
Real de Talpa – The community
Real de Talpa is a unique opportunity that also comes with responsibility. The community at Real de Talpa will be part of a unique natural reserve. It will bring a new lifestyle that motivates us to change from our inside, which brings us to look for new horizons to improve our social, cultural and especially spiritual relationships.
The main objective of this new investment is to improve our lives, through the changes that brings this new development, in which you can enjoy your own ecological gardens and harvests fresh fruits and vegetables or go fishing, free of cost.
Along with the already mentioned amenities, Real de Talpa will also include a club-house, pool, tennis courts and a spa service.
Real de Talpa – The opportunity
Real de Talpa is now under construction and in a Pre-Sale phase. It’s important to note that the development infrastructure is not dependent on sales. The developer has strong and guaranteed financial backing.
