A Wonderful Jungle Lot with a Crystal Mountain River Border, Total Nature Immersion, FULL Privacy and Quiet Side-Street Access but a WALKING DISTANCE away from Plaza Ventanas – Can You Believe?
The CINCO VENTANAS neighborhood is famous for straddling the space between two worlds – while the buzzing town of Ojochal and the hustle and bustle of the Costanera highway are mere minutes away, the local homes sit silent and hidden under the towering jungle canopies. Numerous crystal-clear mountain rivers crisscross this area, as do troops of Howler and Capuchin monkeys. Screaming Macaws traverse the skies, Toucans put in morning and evening treetop concerts and the elusive Jaguarundi & Tayras are often glimpsed as they stealthily run across local Cinco Ventanas roads.
And this is where you will find this sizeable 1.69 acre lot – extending along a side street that is bypassed by the through traffic, the property is nevertheless within WALKING DISTANCE to Plaza Ventanas which holds dozens of businesses such as restaurants, cafes, tourist shops, legal & real estate offices, doctors & dentists, a gas station with a grocery shop and even a mini waterpark!
ACCESS
The land is accessed via a prepared road which breaks off the Costanera highway next to Plaza Ventanas and lazily snakes her way through the jungles, over the crystal rivers and up the winding hills on her way to the property – a quick 1km trip. And best of all – you don’t need a 4x4 vehicle to get here! While many upper properties require a four-wheel drive to access specially in wet weather, this land sits low and near the start of the road – so the local roads are very well maintained year-round.
THE PROPERTY
The large, private property holds a sizeable plantel which can accommodate a large house, swimming pool, and many ancillary structures such as a garage, guest homes, cabins, yoga decks, a home office, gazebo, or perhaps a tropical fruit orchard or landscaped gardens? This is the canvas for you to pain your dream life in our beautiful Costa Rica!
The clear & refreshing Rio Media Luna, flowing to the nearby Pacific, winds her way around the land. This wild mountain river is surrounded by rainforests including ancient trees with amazing trunks and sprawling roots. Tropical flowers, orchids, shrubs, and plants spring to life in every direction. A true serene oasis for your morning coffee or afternoon drink – and a couple of strategically placed stones can give rise to a refreshingly cool swim-hole to be enjoyed year-round!??
LOCAL SERVICES & ATTRACTIONS?
As mentioned - amenities such as gas station, restaurants, cafes, shops, grocers, legal & real estate offices, medical & dental clinics, and even a small water-park are located at the famous Plaza Ventanas, 1km away and a few minutes’ drive from the property (you will recognize it by the giant dinosaur statues). Another few minutes (1.5 km) and you are standing in the warm Pacific waters of Playa Ventanas with her thundering sea-caves…or if you turn to the left, in no time (2 km) you can be enjoying the best of Ojochal - cafes, fine restaurants, supermarkets, hairdressers, tennis & pickle-ball, gyms & yoga studios, and so much more. And I am mentioning just a fraction of what you can find within a 1–10 minute car trip!?
