Luxury Home With Spectacular Ocean View of The Whale's Tail in Uvita
Situated inside of an exclusive hilltop community, the location of this new luxury home strikes a perfect blend between privacy and convenience. The property is an easy 5-minute drive from the Coastal Highway and it is surrounded by nature at the end of a quiet, low-traffic road. Community amenities include a gated entry, green zones, gorgeous tropical landscaping, a well-maintained internal road system, and street lighting leading all the way to the home. A short 8-minute drive will take you to uncrowded tropical beaches and in 10-minutes you will be able to shop and dine in the town of Uvita.
Completed in 2017, this beautiful 4,564 sq.ft. residence was constructed on what we consider to be the most desirable land parcel in the community (12 lots total). The home comfortably sits at an elevation of 423 ft (129 meters) with cool ocean breezes blowing off of the Pacific day and night. The property is bordered by a private nature reserve with ancient rainforest and a seasonal creek that provides a natural wildlife corridor for monkeys and tropical birds. Of course, the true showstopper for the property are the unbelievable whitewater ocean views overlooking the iconic Whale's Tail reef formation at Marino Ballena National Park.
Beautifully Designed Home With Unique Architectural Features
Designed to maximize the incredible outdoor setting, each room in the home features stunning ocean views, while eastern garden lounges are the perfect place to sit back and enjoy the sights and sounds of the rainforest. The layout smartly separates entertaining spaces from the private living quarters with the northern wing consisting of the common areas while the southern wing contains each of the bedrooms. A unique, covered bamboo hallway enhances the indoor/outdoor feel of the home while tying the two wings of the home together. Whether you are entertaining friends by the pool or peacefully lounging about in one of the four bedrooms, you will appreciate the careful thought and the high-quality finishes used throughout the entirety of this one of a kind luxury home.
