About this property

This property in Playa Uvita features breathtaking ocean and coastline views and is conveniently located less than 10 minutes from Uvita and just a few minutes above Playa Hermosa and Achiote Point. The beach, ideal for surfing or leisurely walks, is only a short distance away. Additionally, the Marino Ballena National Park and the Whale’s Tail formation are approximately 10 minutes from the property. The owner, a pioneer in the area, arrived on horseback nearly 30 years ago and selected this location for its exceptional views and proximity to both the beach and Uvita. The main house spans 3,325 square feet and includes the original farmhouse with two bedrooms and one bathroom, along with a small kitchen. This is connected to a large open-air covered terrace that leads to the main kitchen and a full bathroom, which were constructed by the current owner. The upper level features a contemporary suite with the principal bedroom, a full bathroom, an enclosed living room area, and an outdoor covered balcony. The home showcases exotic hardwoods throughout its construction and cabinetry, and it was renovated just two years ago, adding more covered terrace space on both levels. In addition to the main house, there is a 430 square foot caretaker home with one bedroom and a bathroom, which has potential for renovation into a guest house. The property is adorned with numerous mature fruit trees, including mango, papaya, avocado, lemon, guanabana (soursop), starfruit, and more. Water sources include concession water from a spring in the mountains, a permitted deepwater well that has already been drilled, and a 10,000-liter rainwater catchment system. The lower property features its own separate plot map and entrance, offering two building sites, both with stunning ocean views. A private driveway leads to these two pads, which are spaced apart enough to allow for two distinctly private homes or vacation rentals, providing potential for additional income.
