About this property
Nestled at the end of a tranquil cul-de-sac in Playa Pelada, Casa Vidrio is a unique jungle retreat created by the award-winning firm Studio Saxe. This 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom steel-frame home is designed to connect its residents with nature, situated on a secluded ⅓-acre triangular lot. It borders the protected conservation lands of the Nosara Civic Association, ensuring privacy and a strong bond with the surrounding jungle. Scenic paths lead from the property through lush trails to Playa Pelada and North Playa Guiones, perfect for tide pool exploration, morning surfing, or evening walks. At the center of the home is a striking triple-height glass atrium that brings the sky and canopy into the living area. The residence is thoughtfully integrated into the natural landscape, creating a remarkable sense of verticality and spatial drama. Two elevated bedrooms and a yoga deck are positioned above the jungle floor, while the lower level features an open-concept living space that merges indoor and outdoor environments. A third bedroom, conveniently located near the pool, provides additional privacy for guests. The home combines prefabricated steel I-beams with handcrafted teak woodwork, achieving a blend of durability and artisanal craftsmanship. The construction method was designed to minimize on-site impact, with a focus on sustainability through features like passive cooling, cross-ventilation, the use of certified reforested teak, and an overall low environmental footprint. With 340m² (3,660 ft²) of inspired indoor-outdoor living and direct access to Nosara’s beloved beaches, jungle trails, La Luna restaurant, and community amenities, Casa Vidrio represents a harmonious blend of modern architecture, ecological awareness, and jungle living.
