An Ojochal Jungle Retreat with a Mountain River, Rainforests, Beautiful Home & Two Income-Generating Casitas – Live in Paradise While Watching the Profits Rolllll In!
Be the master of your own tropical rainforest domain – after parking in the covered carport you cross a beautiful arching footbridge, bordered by tropical lushness, to enter your elevated jungle-clad home. The large covered deck, attached to the side of this house, offers a panoramic view over your kingdom – sprawling jungles, mountain creek, a sunny pool, poolside cabana, and two beautiful & modern casitas which have no trouble generating plenty of income.
ACCESS
A secure electric gate welcomes you to the property as the winding driveway, bordered by landscaped gardens and exotic greenery, descends & meanders her way to the main house – setting the tone of TOTAL tranquility. The covered carport will keep you & your vehicle dry and shaded. And the entrance is quite grande - a beautiful, arching footbridge connects the carport to the main home. The home sits about 1.4km away from the Costanera highway. A prepared road leads over Ojochal’s new bridge and past some of the town’s finest restaurants & attractions as it twists towards the home.
MAIN HOME
Crossing the arching footbridge, you are met with a covered verandah which runs the length of the main house – straddling the back section of the home, this verandah leads straight to the opposite end with a huge thatched-roof patio decked out with a ceiling fan, coffee table, plentiful seating and two suspended deckchairs. Green, natural views extend in every direction. The main home features modern finishes, spacious living areas, and an open layout that flows seamlessly into the natural surroundings.
The patio opens into the large kitchen / dining space – complete with a full-sized fridge, stove/oven, an extraction fan, and plenty of storage. A beautiful lumber table, lumber cabinets & lumber cupboards are complimented by warm tiles – a perfect match for the white walls and ceilings that keep the home bright & airy. The first bedroom offers bountiful glazing that looks at the greenery outside. It holds plenty of storage, shelving, and a workdesk. The second bedroom is equally rich in glazing & views – in addition to plenty of storage areas. Downstairs, the large Master Bedroom & ensuite opens directly, via large sliding patio doors, to the path which leads to the sunny pool. All rooms & areas of the home are air-conditioned.
CASITAS
Two modern, fully-equipped and air-conditioned casitas work tirelessly to provide your kingdom with income. The one-bedroom cabins (more like guest homes, actually) offer large covered decks, a spacious kitchen / living / dining area, a large bedroom and an expansive bathroom. The kitchen holds a full-sized fridge, stove & oven. Self-sustained, your guests will have a second home away from home – surrounded by towering jungle trees, privacy and relaxation are guaranteed.
POOL & AMENITIES
The sunken pool & cabana offer total tranquility - insulated from the outside hustle and bustle, the sunny deck and refreshing waters are always inviting. The attached cabana includes water & electric connections, thatched roof and a ceiling fan – a perfect place for poolside drinks, afternoon gossip or an evening BBQ. The swimming pool hosts three sunken seats – a thoughtful addition and a great place for sipping cocktails while catching the tropical sun. This wonderful pool area is surrounded by greenery from every direction, and as it sits on a decent slope, you are looking straight into the canopies of the nearby trees.
JUNGLES, CREEK, & SURROUNDS
A year-round mountain creek meanders her way through the property’s beautiful rainforest surrounds. A short stroll from the homes, this creek will bless with its peace and soft burbles. A perfect hangout on a hot day, I am sure no time will be wasted in constructing a cool, natural, refreshing swim hole! Animals such as macaws, monkeys, toucans, blue-morpho butterflies, sloths, and many others reside in the encircling forests. And all around, exotic trees, shrubs, plants, flowers and orchids abound – a true paradise!
LOCAL AREA
Cafes, fine restaurants, supermarkets, hairdressers, tennis & pickle-ball, gyms & yoga studios, and many other businesses are located all around the property – many close enough for a quick stroll. 3.3km away, the famous Plaza Ventanas is tenanted by a mélange of businesses - gas station, restaurants, cafes, shops, grocers, legal & real estate offices, medical & dental clinics, tourist shops and even a small water-park! You will recognize the plaza by the giant dinosaur statues.
Another few minutes and you are standing in the warm Pacific waters of Playa Ventanas with her thundering sea-caves…or in the natural, untouched Playa Tortuga where sea turtles lay their eggs. And I am mentioning just a fraction of what you can find within a 1–10 minute car trip!
