Zacatitos, East Cape, Baja California Sur

Casa Sorensen is in Santa Cruz de Los Zacatitos on the lower East Cape – twenty minutes from San Jose del Cabo. This impeccably maintained home offers 180-degree panoramic views of the ocean and mountains and sits on 2,486 square meters (26,759 square feet, or .614 acres) fenced and gated, site. The home consists of two levels and a rooftop deck. The upstairs living space is 1,300 square feet with a principal bedroom and en-suite bath, guest bedroom and bathroom, living and dining room, kitchen, and laundry room. The lower level has an oversized garage and workbench with storage, a 325 square-foot guest studio with a kitchen, and a room with a view for an office or art studio. The rooftop enjoys a palapa for shade and an outdoor clothes-drying area. See supplement.

There is a pergola-shaded ocean-view deck space of 400 square feet adjoining the living room. The total living space of the house is 1770 square feet. The two-car garage plus shop and storage space is 680 square feet, the covered carport is 418 square feet and the palapa on the roof is 15 feet in diameter. A delightful small arroyo borders the east side of the property and serves as a footpath during the dry season. This is a green space. Los Zacatitos offers swimmable beaches, surfing close by, and a local favorite – Zac’s restaurant and security.

The home is self-sufficient with a solar system which was completely rebuilt in 2019 and includes 5000 watts in panels, 1100-watt hours in Simpliphi lithium-iron batteries (another battery could be added if desired), and a combined Outback charge controller, inverter, and monitor. The system allows a Mirage mini-split air conditioner to cool the master bedroom.

The water storage (pilas), located at the street level, holds 10,000 liters, or enough for approximately one month depending on usage. Water is treated by an ultra-violet system which purifies 24 hours per day. The septic system is divided into gray water and black water holding tanks. The gray water tank has a pump, and the water is fed to the five coco palms and six bougainvilleas once a week. The black water flows to a percolation field and has worked flawlessly for 15 years.

Designed and built by architect Francisco Gomez Best in 2008.

Lomas de La Jolla P-401 | MLS 23-2977 | $659,000 USD.

Perched on a hillside in the charming boutique and gated development of Lomas de La Jolla, Lomas de La Jolla P-401 offers stunning views over the Sea of Cortez from its generously-sized and very private terrace.

This premier top-floor, end unit is situated along the community’s grand staircase and provides lovely, set-back views of the lush, upscale neighboring community, La Jolla Residencial, along with the twinkling lights of historic San José del Cabo on one side and beautiful Punta Palmilla on the other.

The sunrise photos speak for themselves; the starry and moonlit nights are not so easily captured.

Separated by a floor, both bedrooms with en suite baths allow for nice separation which is enhanced by the living room’s cathedral ceiling with peek-a-boo skylight.

The thorough and thoughtful renovation completed in 2022 maximizes storage and prioritizes ease of living. Outfitted with full hurricane shutters, all new appliances, and a hot-water heater, and coupled with a hearty, newer central air conditioner means the only thing to worry about is when to pour the margaritas.

Although not leased since purchase and renovation, the condo (with all new furniture and furnishings available separately) would make a superb addition to the robust rental activity of sought-after Lomas. For those who may be interested in that option; this website built for that possibility is likely transferrable to a new owner, offering a unique and easy turn-key rental income opportunity: https://acasitatocallmyown.wixsite.com/website
