Luxury Houses with Infinity Pool and Expansive Views in Uvita
Located on Union Road, this 2-home property slopes down from a mountain ridge near the resort town of Uvita. But you wouldn’t know it as the east-facing views stretch across mountains, valleys, and rainforests, just foothills of the towering 4000-meter Cordillera Central range… The property offers a genuine ‘middle of nowhere Costa Rica’ experience, only slightly disrupted by the knowledge that a short drive leads to the necessary services and amenities of Uvita.
This house is designed for comfort and style. The ridgetop location receives ample sunshine throughout the day, while an overhanging white roof and effective insulation help maintain a cool environment, complemented by refreshing mountain breezes. An outdoor patio with a sunny infinity pool serves as the focal point of the space. The infinity pool has floating steps and a blue and gray marble tile finish, complementing its cool waters.
The property has a gravel driveway that leads to a public road. The lower level of the home features a 2-car carport, extra parking areas, a laundry room, and a single bedroom with an ensuite. Upstairs are three bedrooms, a kitchen, dining area, lounge, swimming pool, patio, and extra parking. The upper master bedroom has an ensuite, high ceilings, and access to both common and private patios, while the two other bedrooms and the house share a common bath. All four bedrooms have views, open directly to the outside via patio doors, and provide ample storage. All rooms and areas of the house are air-conditioned and have marble floor tile.Â
This 3-bedroom, 2-level home represents luxury. The roof slopes upward, there are large windows, an infinity pool with views of the jungle and mountains, a covered patio, covered parking, and a well-thought-out design and finish, making this one of the most exclusive homes in the area.Â
The 4.93 acre property slopes from near the ridge top down to the valley river, a drop from about 250m to 170m asl. The access road and two homes are located near the top of the property, while most of the lower area is covered by rainforest that reaches down to the river.Â
There is space to develop the nearby plantel, located just below the Lower House – a home or two, guest accommodation, cabins, a lap pool, jacuzzi, orchard, gardens.
A mountain river flows below the property, carving a steep channel as it heads toward the Pacific. The Ballena River marks the eastern edge of the lot, and a path leads directly to its waters. Picture beginning your day with a walk in the rainforests filled with life – you dip your feet in the river while enjoying a cup of coffee, grown nearby by local farmers. How about some afternoon drinks and snacks with family and friends, kids playing in the swim holes while you catch up on the day’s events and enjoy the jungle waterfall?Â
The 1000m high coastal mountains are the highlights of the property - in the summer their tropical slopes contrast with the blue sky and white clouds. The season brings waterfalls that flow down steep slopes. The changing interplay of mountain-top clouds, valley mists, and trees with seasonal flowers creates a landscape that is ever-changing, accompanied by the sounds of howler monkeys, scarlet macaws, tree frogs, and other critters.
The closeness to nature and variety of nearby habitats will attract a range of jungle wildlife to the property – monkeys, scarlet macaws, several species of toucans, sloths, anteaters, poison dart frogs, tree frogs, giant moths, coatis, blue morpho butterflies, and other creatures will be your new tropical neighbors. You might see the elusive jaguarundi, or possibly a wandering tapir or jaguar. The lot is adjacent to a large area of mountain jungles, so expect visits from curious creatures.Â
Law-related Water is important in our area – and this property features a 7,500 liter water tank and authorized access to the nearby mountain river. This setup meets all the needs of the property, including future household, pool, and irrigation use.  This is rainwater that flows down the slopes of the nearby mountains – you will enjoy the view and drink it too (with lemon, in your tea or coffee, or in your tropical margarita).
Only 5 minutes away and 250m downhill, Uvita is a growing hub for tourism, adventure, and expat living. It offers a variety of cafes, eco-tourism, shopping, dining, and nightlife. This area has everyday necessities like supermarkets, legal and accounting offices, doctors, dentists, veterinary clinics, car mechanics, and beauty parlors, as well as beer breweries.
Marino Ballena National Park is 13 minutes away, known for surfing, whale watching, and SCUBA diving. The park’s beaches are among the best in the world, and the ‘Whale’s Tail’ sand and rock formation is an accessible natural feature. Twice a year, Humpback Whales migrate to the local area – both the Southern Pacific (July-October) and Northern Pacific (December-March) populations gather in our waters. Surfing, tanning, beach soccer, volleyball, sports fishing, and SCUBA trips to Caño Island are popular activities in Marino Ballena.
