Location: Ojochal, Costa Rica
The road to this property is called Cinco Ventanas or ‘The Five Windows,’ and this property sits directly on one of those five ocean view windows! The ocean view from this two-house property is jaw-droppingly epic, with unimpeded visibility of the Pacific Coast from the bedrooms, kitchen, pool, terrace, guest house… EVERYWHERE on this property is another dream vista. Sitting at 250 meters of elevation, enjoying fantastic breezes all year long, there are no houses to block your view here and none EVER WILL!
This two-bedroom luxury home plus one-bedroom luxury guest house are the height of elegance in this high-end neighborhood of Ojochal. Featuring Asian interior and outdoor furntiure, this property was lovingly designed, built, curated, and maintained by the same owner for the last fifteen years. It is in fantastic condition, incorporating modern finishes and classic details with exquisite taste.
The driveway, primary home, pool, guest house, and gardens are impeccably laid out across one acre of the property with an additional six acres of usable space on the hillside below that leads down to a year-round river. This already magical estate can be extended and shared with even more family or guests.
The two-bedroom main home is open and breezy. Tall sliding glass doors line the entire ample terrace, filling the inside of the house with the fullness of the seascape. Each space flows easily from one to the other, giving the illusion of very few doors or walls in this open-concept home. Still, the design and furnishings convey a sense of comfort, creating an inviting feeling no matter which part of the home you are in.
Nature is the focus here and you can plan to wake up to the sound of howler monkeys playing in the trees and watch a wide assortment of birds gliding in the currents above. Every day brings new gifts from nature that will inspire peace and balance in your daily routine. Not only will you have vast, white-water views of the Pacific Ocean and the lush, green jungle surrounding you — you will have a direct view of Caño Island Biological Reserve as well as the Terraba River-mouth, which is home to the second largest mangrove system in Central America. This is the ‘nature’s paradise’ that so many are seeking.
The size of this private and secluded property is perfect for a couple to live in full-time and to host guests occasionally throughout the year. The newly-built guest house (completed in 2022) is an ideal space for long-term rentals or for cohabitating with an aging parent or adult child. You have everything you need to live comfortably without any excess space to clean or fill with junk.
This home was built to live in comfort and style! The wooden furniture is custom-made from local hardwoods and built to last. All of the appliances are new and high-grade. There is plenty of storage throughout the property and closets in every room. There is a large carport and a generous covered terrace with lots of seating options. AND there is a mature fruit and flower garden (with 17 different types of bamboo growing) that will bring you immediate joy!
This is a Costa Rica dream property come true and you will have a hard time finding another like it. When this sells, it will likely be another 20 years before the next owner is ready to give it up!
