Long Description
Private Hilltop Home with Sweeping Jungle Views & Saltwater Pool
Set within the quiet Iriria neighborhood, this 5,500 m² property combines modern comfort with exceptional privacy, abundant wildlife, and room to grow. Just 2.5 km from the beach, the home is surrounded by lush tropical greenery and positioned to capture sweeping views over the treetops.
The main residence, completed in 2022, offers 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, each with direct access to the wrap around terrace. The master suite includes two closets (one with dehumidifier) and an ensuite bath, while the second bedroom also enjoys its own ensuite and generous closet space. Large sliding glass doors and screened windows bring in natural light and breezes, while ceiling fans keep every space cool and comfortable.
The open floor plan living and dining area flows into a spacious kitchen with ample work surfaces, a dishwasher, an American sized fridge, large oven, and plenty of storage. A separate laundry room with washer, dryer, and utility sink adds convenience.
Outdoor living takes center stage here. The expansive wrap around terrace offers multiple seating areas and panoramic views into the jungle canopy, perfect for spotting the resident sloths, monkeys, toucans, macaws, hummingbirds, and butterflies. From the terrace, steps lead to the large garden patio and a 6m x 3.5m saltwater pool, complete with a covered rancho featuring a sink, BBQ, and bar seating for effortless entertaining.
Beneath the home, an open work or therapy space overlooks the pool and includes its own sink, lighting, ceiling fan, and electric points. There is also a spacious 3.5m x 3m locked bodega, plus a closed pool pump room housing the saltwater system.
The land extends to include numerous fruit trees - bananas, biriba, papaya, pineapples, lemon, and orange - and offers two additional building sites: one above the house (with potential for its own separate entrance) and one below. The property could be segregated for future development, making it ideal for those considering guest villas or a multi home compound.
Water security is exceptional, with a private deep well on the property with an additional shared 60m deep well, plus a 5,000 liter storage tank for water and a 1,500 liter rainwater catchment tank. The home has both fiber optic internet and Starlink for reliable connectivity, along with high standard electrical installation and a security camera system.
A peaceful setting with modern infrastructure and expansion potential, this property is ready to enjoy as a full time residence, private getaway, or income producing retreat.
