The property borders the Costanera, a public road, and a jungle stream that empties into the sands of Playa Ballena. Convenience, nature, and lifestyle come together effortlessly here.

THE BAMBOO MASTERPIECE – CASA BAMBÚ

This elevated, 560m2 two‑level structure is a true visual standout. Expansive concrete floor plates are surrounded by elegant bamboo framing creating a striking organic foundation for the home’s modern design. A continuous row of skylights runs the full length of the green roof, bathing the interior in soft, natural light throughout the day.

Perched above a lush valley, the building appears to float over the rainforest canopy, offering a rare sense of openness and connection to nature. Towering, mature rainforest trees circle the structure. The bold blend of concrete, metal, and timber delivers a contemporary yet primal aesthetic—perfectly aligned with the dramatic jungles, mountain backdrops, and rugged Pacific coastline that define the Costa Ballena region.

RESIDENTIAL OPTIONS

The owner drafted an expansive residential plan featuring a kitchen, bathroom, living room, dining area, and laundry on the lower level, with four bedrooms and an additional bathroom upstairs. With a 560m2 two-level floor area, the structure offers exceptional flexibility—allowing you to shape the interior into your EXACT vision of perfection.
