Property with Two Houses and Development Space in Baru
Local buyers have options: a mountainside retreat in the permaculture area of Costa Rica or a conventional environment with shops, businesses, highways, and tourist activity. What if I told you that you can enjoy both, along with stunning mountain and jungle views, plus the Nauyaca waterfall just a short distance away? This waterfall and its swimming holes are popular local attractions. And let’s not forget the development opportunities available on this large lot!
The land is positioned on a ridge with homes raised above the valley and the mountains across from it. Rainforests spread out in all directions – monkeys, toucans, sloths, blue morpho butterflies, tree frogs, and other creatures will be your neighbors! The mountain breezes are frequent companions, providing cooling and refreshing effects. Access from the main highway between Dominical and San Isidro, along with a carport and garage, makes traveling to and from the property straightforward.Â
This home includes a studio apartment, 3 bedrooms, and 3 bathrooms. A parking area and a garage offer convenient access, while a nearby picnic gazebo with seats and a table allows for relaxation in any weather. The kitchen is equipped and shares the central area with the breakfast island and lounge, offering jungle and mountain views from every window. This space opens into the large covered backyard patio with great views. The patio has extra seating, another dining area, and a BBQ. Two of the three bedrooms open directly onto this patio, where views, wind chimes, potted plants, and lighting create a relaxing atmosphere. A studio apartment adds versatility to this home.Â
The guest home includes two rooms, a bath, a large patio, high ceilings, and a carport for multiple vehicles, making it suitable as a second house. It offers an open space with lumber outfits and trims, roof windows, and ample natural light. A verandah, sheltered by the overhanging roof, will be a great spot to sit and enjoy the views and sounds of the jungle.Â
The cleared hillside below the main home is ready for development – a prime plot that could serve as a tropical orchard with a variety of fruits. Another option is to change this area into a park with walkways, lights, and seating spread across the sloping land.Â
More flat areas can be created for cabins or structures. The area near the guest home can accommodate multiple new cabins, a house, or a sizable swimming pool.
The local area has many shops, services, and amenities. Only 7 minutes away is Dominical, a well-known surfing destination – here you will find more conveniences and entertainment. The service center of San Isidro is about 30 minutes away. The drive to this city takes you through a mountain range, offering views that are impressive as you go up and down the roads. San Isidro is a shopping destination with several big-box stores and supermarkets, along with hospitals, clinics, and car service centers and dealerships.
The area and towns have a focus on permaculture, spirituality, and alternative lifestyles. The weekly Tinamastes Farmers Market features organic produce and local art and craft. This area is Costa Rica’s main destination for those seeking a relaxed lifestyle and a more traditional way of living.
Natural attractions are everywhere – the Nauyaca waterfall is a must-visit for Instagram. Just minutes away is Dominical with its beaches and surfing options. Here you will find cafes, shops, surf schools, restaurants, and a beach market.
Manuel Antonio National Park and Uvita’s Marino Ballena National Park are nearby attractions. Marino Ballena is a leading destination for whale-watching, sport fishing, and SCUBA. Eco and adrenaline activities are available all around. You won't be bored here!
