The mountain

An autonomous estate

In a geographical anomaly known mostly to locals and untouched by mass tourism, we are creating a domain dedicated to nature, wellness and autonomous living.

Set within a protected sanctuary of forests, water springs and open landscapes, the domain has a lake at its foot and 360° panoramic views from its highest points. You live fully immersed in nature, yet within easy reach of Fortaleza, one of Brazil's most dynamic cities.

From finding your ideal plot to settling in and building your home, we provide a fully managed experience designed to make every step seamless.

    Forest and springs, with a capital city 1h30 away.

  • Active & outdoor living

    Trails, a lake and a climate that keeps you outside all year.

  • Environmentally protected land

    Low density and preserved landscapes, by design.

  • Safety & peace of mind

    A private, calm estate where children can roam.

  • Family-first community

    Built by a family, for families who share the same values.

  • Self-sufficiency

    Water on the land and room to grow your own food.

  • The whole process, one partner

    Visa, land, permits and construction, handled by one team.

Our story

We didn't design this for a market. We designed it for our own family, then opened the gate.

Like many families, we wanted more freedom, more space and a better quality of life. That desire led us from France to Brazil, a country where opportunity is still abundant, nature remains accessible and people can build a life with fewer constraints.

Everything we promise buyers, we tested on ourselves first:

  • Water
  • Internet
  • Schooling
  • Land titles
  • Building permits

That's why we can describe it precisely, including the parts that take patience.

How it works

Four steps, done properly

A project of this kind takes time and must be done properly. Here is exactly how it works, and how long it takes.

    Initial consultation

    We start with a conversation to understand your goals, lifestyle, timeline and budget, and to see whether the project is right for you.

  2. 02

    Visit the domain

    Come and experience the land first-hand, explore the region and see the plots available.

  3. 03

    Design your project

    Choose your land, define your home and work with us on a plan tailored to your needs.

  4. 04

    We handle the rest

    From land subdivision and legal procedures to construction and handover, we oversee the entire process for you.

1–3 months to issue your individual land title

12–36 months from planning and permits to your finished home

Already real

Real, and growing.

Families are starting to live on the estate. The first home will be completed by the end of 2026, and new building permits are being submitted.

"Your work is turning this place into a true haven, where nature remains a precious treasure."
