This is a 5 bedroom house, 3 full baths, indoor fireplace and outdoor dedicated with exclusive use by the guests. A large separate covered barbeque area is shared among guests of the other two properties. Exclusive and ample parking for up to three cars in front of the house and additional cars a very close walk. This house is in a very large but sparsely populated closed preservation area/condominium. Government mandated preserved area that is highly forested. Joa de Barro borders a foundation dedicated to preserving certain Brazilian Fauna. Located "as crow flies" near to Sao Paulo (1 hour). However, roads and traffic common to this city mean transit time 2 hours (3 hours from GRU airport). Location is 20 minutes (6 KM) on dirt road. Closest town with good supermarket, gas, pharmacy, dentist, restaurant infrastructure is Juquitiba, 30-35 minutes away. Going a little further, about 1 hour driving from the Chalet is Embu das Artes, a small town with local arts and crafts, several restaurants, a biergarten, etc. Firewood that is harvested from fallen trees and branches in the forest is included for evening fires. Additional wood is available for more extended use and revenue goes directly to the local help. No native trees are cut.
