Full Description: This 3 acre property has 3 newish (built in 2007), all wood houses: 1 Main house and 2 charming 2 - 2 bedroom 1 bath cottages.
The designer of this property has them well named as the "Tree Top Cottages". Each house is built up over the parking and storage area, so the main living area is at the elevated 2nd story level. Since the property is located in the jungle, you literally are in the Tree Tops. This provides the backdrop for a perpetual display of nature's finest. There are birds of every variety passing by throughout the day. The species vary throughout the year. There are also the tree dwelling creatures - sloths, aracaris, toucans, cincajews, coatis, whiteface and howler monkies and so on that frequent the premises. The ocean views are towards the north and stretch up to Manuel Antonio.
The houses all feature wrap-around decks at the 2nd floor level and this is where live happens in these wonderful jungle houses.
The Costanera Highway and the Pacific ocean - with many almost deserted beaches – is an 8 minute drive down the mountain on a well-maintained road. Grocery stores, gas stations, restaurants, banks and shopping are only 15 minutes away in Playa Dominical or Uvita. The Quepos airport is a 40 minute drive along a newly paved road. San Isidro del General-the fastest growing town in Central America- is a 50 minute drive. Plans are in the works for construction of a new international airport near Palmar Sur, located 45 minutes south of this property.
This is a TURN-KEY opportunity - furnished, beautifully landscaped, excellent road/water/electricity infrastructure, AC, telephone lines, cable TV, high-speed wifi - simply bring your suitcase, stock the fridge, and move right in!
