Description:
A Private & Nature-Immersed Home on a HUGE End-Of-Road 3.5 Acre Lot – With Rainforest Surrounds, a River and a Swim-Hole Waterfall, You Are Still Just a Stroll Away From a Hot Barista Coffee or Fancy Dinner Experience in Our Cosmopolitan Ojochal!
🚗 LOCATION & ACCESS
Located high above (but minutes away from) Ojochal’s bustling central area, this home – on two adjacent lots - gives a peaceful oasis in the middle of Costa Ballena’s famous expat enclave. The end-of-road location ensures total privacy & security. The property’s river, swim holes & waterfalls put you in the thick wonderland of a primeval jungle – but a hot barista coffee, a traditional Gallo Pinto breakfast or a fancy dinner are just a quick stroll away! And the wilds of a wildlife corridor span just behind the house – in fact, just 1.5km away, the mountain peaks reach1,100m or 3,600 feet. These cloud forests are home to jaguars and tapirs.
The property is easily accessed via a scenic 5.5 km drive from the Costanera Sur Highway. Turning off the highway, you will enter the main road, Calle Principal, and cross a brand-new bridge at the entrance to Ojochal. The route then winds through the town and surrounding neighborhoods, businesses, jungles & rivers. Just after passing through the main developed center of the town, the road climbs through the thick rainforests where a final, prepared 1.5km section leads you to the front gates.
A paved driveway descends through the jungles & manucired parklands to reach a parking area just in front of the house. Elevated to 270m or 890 feet, the home benefits from a cooler climate and refreshing sea & mountain breezes.
🏠 THE HOUSE
The home is fully integrated into the rainforest and takes full advantage of its amazing location. The top level holds a jungle-facing, covered patio which is accessed via three beautiful arched entrances – two in the living room and another located in a bedroom. Another bedroom shares this space, as does a large fully-equipped kitchen and a living & chillout area, as well as a shared bathroom. Stunning lumber cabinetry, stone floor tiling and exotic artwork give the house a rainforest-lodge vibe.
The ground-level floor holds a living area, third bedroom, bathroom and a beautiful stone patio with chairs & seating. As mentioned, both patios look right onto the tropical jungle canopies.
🌳 THE RAINFORESTS, RIVER, NATURAL SWIMMING POOLS & WATERFALL
The end-of-road location, protected riverside jungles and the large size of the two lots ensure that the home is, and always will be, surrounded by towering lowland rainforests. The surrounding area and the two lots are home to teeming wildlife – macaws, toucans, blue morpho butterflies, glass frogs, anteaters and many other jungle critters will be your new neighbors!
Concrete steps take you down to the jungle river which borders one of the lots and the stunning rainforest waterfall. Below the waterfall, a natural swimming pool invites for a surreal experience – soaking in the jungles under brilliant falling waters while being surrounded by healing nature will be the highlight of your guests’ stay! This pool can be easily drained or re-filled via an outlet built into the concrete dam.
🪟 THE VIEWS
Thick jungle views are glanced form every direction – as is the abundant wildlife, orchids, beautiful ornamental plants and tropical life in all her glory. You are truly living in the middle of a rainforest paradise.
🏗️ DEVELOPMENT OPTIONS
Such a central-yet-natural location with serenity, access to a mountain river, waterfalls, and natural swimming pool, lends itself to a myriad of commercial developments focused on ecotourism or meditation / spirituality. An exclusive eco-lodge, healing center, or even a café/restaurant with natural attractions could do very well here.
