Key facts
About this property
This land is located on a dead-end street surrounded by rainforest, just minutes from the lively center of Ojochal, which is part of Costa Ballena's well-known expat community. The property offers a secluded retreat with 24/7 gated access for privacy and security. Its elevated position allows for captivating views of the surrounding rainforests and a nearby valley river, immersing you in a lush jungle environment. Despite this tranquil setting, amenities such as a hot coffee shop, traditional Gallo Pinto breakfast, or fine dining are only a short drive away. The property is also near a wildlife corridor, with mountain peaks and dense rain and cloud forests located just over 3 km away, reaching heights of 1,100 meters or 3,600 feet above sea level. Ojochal is 4 km from the property, Plaza Ventanas, a large shopping center, is 8 km away, and the renowned Playa Ventanas beach is just 9 km distant. Access to the property is straightforward via a scenic 6.5 km drive from the Costanera Sur Highway. After turning off the highway, you will enter Calle Principal and cross a new bridge at Ojochal's entrance. The route winds through the town and its neighborhoods, passing businesses, jungles, and rivers. After navigating through the main developed area of the town, the road continues through towering rainforests before reaching the secure condo entrance gates. An alternative route via Cinco Ventanas Road connects to the Costanera highway at Plaza Ventanas, offering spectacular views of mountains, rainforests, and the Pacific Ocean, along with access to shopping and services. The land itself is elevated above the public road, featuring a short driveway leading to a slightly raised parking area. It backs onto a slope that descends towards a jungle valley river, the sound of which can be heard from the lot. This jungle area is protected and will remain untouched. There are two designated building sites available for construction: a larger one approximately at the midpoint of the elevation, measuring 200 sqm (2,150 sq ft), and a smaller one at the top, measuring 36 sqm (390 sq ft). A multi-level house could be constructed across both sites. The surrounding sloping areas can be transformed into fruit orchards, landscaped gardens, or restored to their natural rainforest state. All necessary utilities are available, allowing for construction to commence with minimal delay. The views from the property are dominated by the towering 1,000-meter coastal mountains, cloaked in ancient jungles and rainforests. During the green season, massive waterfalls cascade down their steep slopes. The clouds and mist create a dynamic backdrop as they swirl around the mountain peaks and ridges. Surrounding jungle canopies fill the landscape, descending towards river valleys that border two sides of the lot. In the distance, the blue waters of the ocean can be seen.
