Two Twin 2-Bed & 2-Bath Homes with Private Swimming Pools - Identical, Self-Sufficient and Located in Ojochal’s Quiet & Serene Rainforest-Edge Neighborhood – Perfect for a family Compound or an Exclusive Resort.
Can you get more ‘Costa Rica’ than living near the intersection of Calles Tucan, Colibri and Quetzal (Toucan, Hummingbird and Quetzal Streets)? These twin homes sit in the middle of a jungle-edge neighborhood which parallels Ojochal’s busy & buzzing town centre. Enjoy the stillness and serenity of tropical Costa Rica while being mere minutes away from some of the best restaurants & cafes in the country. All sort of services and amenities are just around the corner including supermarkets, fitness centers, barbers, pharmacies and corner shops. And if you enjoy pickleball, then you are in luck – Ojochal’s famous court is just 150 meters from the property gates!
THE OPPORTUNITY
These two homes sit in the PERFECT location and are totally independent. The discerning buyer has many options: a purely residential estate in the style of a family compound or a main house plus a guest home, a mixed development with one residential house and one rental home, or a purely commercial enterprise with a 2-house resort. Each house includes a private swimming pool, private laundry facilities, a private outdoor half-bathroom in the pool area and, thanks to the construction layout and targeted landscaping, offers full privacy from both the other home and from the surrounding properties.
The 0.64 acres of land offer plenty of space and this is reflected in the property layout: a wide entrance gate & driveway, large parking facilities, twin swimming pools, pool & storage sheds, plenty of green space and beautiful landscaping compliment the two homes. The homes are made of strong concrete & high quality materials, being designed with strength, utility and aesthetics in mind.
THE HOMES
The two homes are identical and reached via a footpath leading away from the carpark. A sunny swimming pool and a large covered front patio, with plentiful seating options and a BBQ, occupy the entire frontal section of each house. This patio opens directly towards the two ensuite bedrooms and the central kitchen / living space. Frontal floor-to-ceiling glazing floods the home with sunlight and natural vistas. A high ceiling adds a sense of spaciousness and ceiling windows, gracing both the external and internal walls, complete the bright & sunny offering. Beautiful lumber fit outs and teak ceilings, double-treated for bug resistance, add a touch of warmth and nature to every nook and cranny of the home. Air Conditioning is provided in every bedroom, and the AC units as well as the washer & dryer are conveniently located in external rooms at the back of the homes.
The large kitchen is fully equipped and provides plenty of counter and storage space while a centrally located dining table can comfortably seat eight guests. The bedrooms are equipped with storage space and a large ensuite which is accessible from each bedroom and from the central kitchen / dining area. Monsoon showers ensure an enjoyable & relaxing experience. The kitchen and two bedrooms look directly onto the jungle & mountain vistas which are complimented by beautiful tropical landscaping. Plentiful manicured green lawns will provide play areas for children and adults alike.
ACCESS
The property is easily accessed from the Costanera highway – as you turn off the highway near the Plaza Ventanas shopping centre and onto the local road, you will pass over the brand-new entrance bridge and roll past some of Ojochal’s more famous restaurants, businesses & pubs before turning right onto Papagayo (Parrot) Street and then hanging a left on Calle Tucan. And best of all – these roads are well-made and maintained so no 4x4 is needed!
LOCAL AREA
Let me tell you a bit about the town of Ojochal – it is THE place to be – a hot real estate market driven by the town’s tropical surroundings, services and amenities, and proximity to some of the most scenic beaches, waterfalls and landscapes of Costa Rica. The town is known as an international village due to her popularity as a destination for locals, expats and tourists alike. World-class dining options surround the local area as do yoga studios and fitness centres, hotels and guesthouses, shops and supermarkets, medical clinics, legal offices, hardware stores and many other businesses. But Ojochal is also a true jungle town with numerous mountain rivers, streams and waterfalls criss-crossing the area, and a canopy of towering trees immersing the local homes and businesses giving a true ‘jungle village’ vibe. Resident toucans, flocks of noisy scarlet macaws, howler and capuchin monkeys, sloths, majestic blue morpho butterflies and many other tropical animals complete the Ojochal experience!
The amazing Playa Ventanas with her thundering sea caves or the wild Playa Tortuga - where sea turtles come to lay their eggs – are under 5km away. Instagram-famous Pavones waterfall, with a huge overhanging boulder, can be reached in 15 minutes. Marino Ballena NP in nearby Uvita entices with whale watching, sport fishing, and eco & adrenaline activities while the nearby Palmar holds the mysterious stone spheres in two of its beautiful outdoor parks. With so much to see, do, and experience, aren’t you glad you chose resort-style living in the beautiful Costa Ballena?
What an offer – a wild but central property with views, amenities, and two homes that can be utilized in a number of ways – so much flexibility and opportunity!
