ECO HOME near Natal I'm looking to buy an Eco Home in North East Brazil, near Natal, has anybody got any info. By Eco home I mean Solar water heaters and built from local natural materials like FSC timber. Has anybody got any details on property that fits my rather vague description.
We have bought an eco home which is along the lines that you are looking.
My partner and i stumbled across the site by chance last October when we were up near the Touros area looking for Lagoa Do Coelho.
We called in to ask directions and spoke to the owner.He took us around the site and explained his plans for the development.Basically,they will be using solar haeting and natural materials and making everything environmentally friendly.
We were very impressed with the whole set up and the result was we left a deposit and are having a 2 bed villa built at the front near the beach.Everyone was really friendly and they even drove us down to their supplier in Natal and we were able to choose our own tiles and colours and even after ordering extras,we ended up paying less for our villa on its own plot than the apartment we were going to buy.
When we got back to England i was a bit worried at first because we had not checked anything ,but our lawyer checked and they have all the approvals and things so we are absoulutely delighted with our purchase.It was easily the best development we had seen in the whole 3 weeks.I do not think it is for sale in the U.K. and it is mainly local people that are buying.
