About this property

Nestled in the Monte Carlo community within the Alexander Skutch Biological Corridor, this property offers a unique blend of modern living and the natural beauty of Costa Rica. Spanning 1.8 hectares (4.53 acres) of fertile land, it presents a lifestyle characterized by tranquility and opportunity. The main feature is a well-crafted 52 m² (560 sq. ft.) luxury cabin, constructed with solid block and featuring elegant teak wood ceilings and floors. The cabin is furnished with custom-made Guanacaste pieces that provide an authentic feel. Inside, there is a modern kitchen, a cozy living area, a spacious bathroom, and a laundry space. The large bedroom includes a dedicated office corner, ideal for remote work, supported by reliable fiber optic internet. Recently, a 42 m² (452 sq. ft.) deck was added, enhancing the connection between the home and its natural surroundings, bringing the total living space to nearly 90 m² (969 sq. ft.). A private lake, located just steps from the cabin, serves as a peaceful retreat for personal enjoyment or could be an attractive feature for an Airbnb rental. The Peñas Blancas River, known for its cleanliness, flows through the property, offering several natural swimming holes. Private trails meander across the land, leading to additional building sites suitable for cabins, eco-lodges, or guest houses. An upper lot with direct road access provides further potential for commercial or rental development. The property is abundant with over 20 varieties of tropical fruits, including mango, cacao, tangerine, and lemon. Essential utilities are already established, including improved access, electricity, water supply, outdoor lighting, and high-speed internet. Despite its secluded setting, the property is conveniently located about 15 minutes from San Isidro de El General, the main city in the region, where supermarkets, schools, and hospitals are available.
