Exclusive Opportunity: Luxury Home at Unprecedented Value.

For a discerning buyer, this refined residence is now available in a limited-time offering. Act swiftly to secure a rare blend of sophistication and value.

Offered at $580,000, this private ocean-view estate presents an outstanding opportunity to own a well-built home with exceptional infrastructure in one of Costa Rica’s most desirable regions. Set on 10,000 square meters (2.5 acres) of fully fenced land, the property offers panoramic Pacific Ocean views, complete privacy, and the rare combination of sustainable living and convenient access to the area’s beaches, restaurants, and services.

The main residence features three bedrooms, four bathrooms, and an open-concept design that flows seamlessly onto expansive covered terraces overlooking the Pacific. While the home would benefit from cosmetic updating, it offers a solid foundation and quality infrastructure that provide excellent long-term value.

A separate two-bedroom, one-bathroom guest house offers flexibility for visiting family and friends, caretaker accommodations, or vacation rental income.

One of the property’s most valuable features is its impressive off-grid infrastructure, including a 51-panel solar system with four inverters and twelve lithium batteries, providing reliable energy independence. Additional improvements include a 5,000-liter backup water storage system, a large concrete driveway, and a covered three-car carport.

The grounds are equally impressive, with more than one hundred mature fruit trees, a swimming pool overlooking the ocean, and complete privacy surrounded by lush tropical vegetation.

Ideally located just 15 minutes from beaches, shopping, and restaurants, 20 minutes from Uvita, and 35 minutes from Dominical, this property combines the tranquility of a private mountain estate with easy access to the amenities of Costa Rica’s South Pacific.

This is an exceptional opportunity for buyers seeking ocean views, privacy, sustainable infrastructure, and the potential to personalize a home in a highly sought-after location.
