About this property

This uniquely designed home welcomes with warm tones, open & spacious vibes, inter-mingling outdoor & indoor areas, and an absolutely brilliant interplay of form, function and convenience. A perfect construction for our warm, sunny, tropical and sometimes stormy climate!

THE LOCATION & ACCESS

Sitting in the exclusive Phase 11 neighborhood, the home is minutes from Ojochal’s cafes, restaurants, shops, grocers, fitness facilities, boutique shops, and professional services. The Costanera highway and Plaza Ventanas, with a plethora of businesses, are ten minutes away. In 15 minutes you can be relaxing on the dark sands of Playa Ventanas or walking along the wilds of Playa Tortuga.

The home is accessed via a prepared road which starts at the Costanera, passes through Ojochal and continues on to Phase 11. You are welcomed by a beautifully designed electric gate at the bottom of the sloping driveway. A 2-car carport shares a roof with the home, ensuring a dry passage. Additional parking space is provided for at least a dozen vehicles along the driveway and the unpaved flat area at the side of the home.

The home stands at just over 100m above sea level, providing a slightly cooler and breezier climate.

THE SETTING & VIEWS

The towering jungles border the home on two sides – while another portion of the forest stands on the other side of the road. These forested areas border river valleys and must remain to provide animal habitat and erosion protection – so you can be sure of the ever-present tropical vibes and must expect to welcome your new jungle neighbors like macaws, monkeys, poison dart frogs, toucans, anteaters, coatis, iguanas, and electric blue morpho butterflies.

The views are spectacular as the 1,400 meter coastal mountains, covered in ancient jungles and cloud-forests, form a nearly vertical wall reminiscent of Hawaii’s volcanic ranges. During the green season numerous waterfalls fall hundreds of meters along their sharp slopes while the dry season sees their peaks draped in brilliantly white fair weather clouds and morning mists.

POOL & PATIO

An open, sunny pool borders a BBQ & dining area that sits under a translucent roof of a gazebo. Adjoining is an overhanging roof that creates an extensive verandah and a covered house patio with a coffee table and plenty of additional space and seating. The patio also extends along the entire back section of the house where it acts as a covered hallway and children’s play area – whether this space is considered to be ‘inside’ or ‘outside’ the house is fully open to interpretation. But what is sure is that this unique design takes FULL advantage of the tropical location – be it rain or shine, you are fully engaged with the nature that lives a breath away in every direction.

INTERIOR & FEATURES

The home features a large and fully equipped kitchen which opens directly into the pool & patio via large sliding doors. This area also contains a brilliantly designed dining table / breakfast bar and a lounge with a wall-mounted TV. Steely granites & appliances & warm lumber finishes contrast in this modern yet natural space. Two bedrooms, a master bed with an ensuite & TV, and a common bathroom with a monsoon shower sit towards the back of the home. One of the bedrooms opens to an outdoor space via sliding doors while the master bedroom contains a balcony. Sizeable storage & laundry rooms are located in the covered carport.

All spaces are air-conditioned and feature beautiful lumber trims alongside modern design elements. The house has CCTV cameras and an alarm system – combined with the electric access gate you will be provided a high degree of security.

ADDITIONAL PLANTEL

A short walk over a footbridge, with magnificent tropical plants sprawling in every direction, brings you to an additional jungle plantel. This flat piece of land is perfect for a guest home, cabins, yoga deck, greenhouse, tropical meditation garden, or many other constructions – it is up to you what to create in this wonderful slice of paradise.

A beautifully designed, secure and tropical home for all seasons, just minutes from Ojochal and our stunning dark-sanded beaches, with a flat plantel to treat as the canvas for your imagination – what am amazing offer! Call RE/MAX today to see this unique house for yourself!
