Located on the Caribbean coast of Costa Rica just 15 minutes from Cahuita, this property sits on 6,990 square meters of land surrounded by mature tropical vegetation, with a river bordering the property and ample space for additional construction or landscaping projects. The setting offers privacy with convenient access to Cahuita's beaches, national park, and local amenities.
The main residence is a well-constructed two-story home that makes efficient use of its layout. The upper level serves as the primary living area and features a bright, open-plan living room and dining space with high vaulted ceilings, exposed dark wood beams, recessed lighting, and a ceiling fan. Large windows on both sides of the great room frame the surrounding greenery and allow consistent natural light. A split A/C unit is also installed in this common area for year-round comfort.
The kitchen is designed for everyday function and entertaining alike. It features stainless steel appliances including a full-size refrigerator and electric range with a stainless hood vent, granite countertops, a stone-accented kitchen island with bar seating, and custom dark cabinetry with soft-close drawers.
The master bedroom is generously sized, with vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, a ceiling fan, a split A/C unit, and garden-facing windows that bring in natural light. A full-height steel-framed glass wall opens directly onto the private upper patio, which overlooks the tropical landscape and the river beyond. The master suite includes a walk-in closet and a well-appointed bathroom with hot water.
The upper-level covered patio is a standout feature of the home. Finished with tile flooring, a natural stone base wall, and a cable railing system, it offers open views over the property's gardens and toward the river — a comfortable and functional outdoor living space used year-round.
On the lower level, an additional bedroom and bathroom provide flexible accommodation for guests, extended family, or use as a poolside retreat. The large covered patio on this level connects directly to the pool area and is suited for outdoor dining and gatherings. A spacious storage area and a dedicated laundry room with washer and dryer provide additional convenience.
The private swimming pool is a centerpiece of the outdoor space, featuring a raised waterfall feature finished in turquoise mosaic tile that cascades into the main pool. A wood deck lounge area with sun chairs sits adjacent to the pool, surrounded by tropical plantings and open lawn. The overall outdoor area is mature, well-maintained, and ready for immediate use.
A fully independent one-bedroom, one-bathroom apartment provides a dedicated space for long-term tenants, vacation rental guests, or visiting family members. This unit adds meaningful flexibility to the property's overall use.
The land itself — nearly 7,000 square meters — offers significant room for additional construction, whether a second guest house, a larger rental unit, a garden, or further landscaping. The property's scale and existing infrastructure make it a sound platform for investment or phased development.
