This large, immaculately prepared plantel straddles a ridge which juts away from the well-prepared public road – giving you the feeling that the lot hangs over the hills and forests hundreds of feet beneath your feet. To your left and right, two jungle covered valleys frame the view as they descend towards the lush greenery and, as your eyes glide upwards, the sweeping ocean panoramas come into focus…the horizon with its brilliant white clouds reflecting in the waters below, the wonderful red, orange and crimson sunsets, the famous Cano Island with her natural wonders and, closer to shore, the crashing Pacific surf and green hills conspire to provide a mesmerizing and ever-changing canvas.
And behind you are majestic coastal mountains rising to heights of over 1,300 meters, or 4,300 feet. The mountains are completely covered by old growth jungles and often shrouded in mists, the upper slopes holding cloud forests that make for surreal vistas. A few seasonal waterfalls are also visible, spectacularly descending for hundreds of meters along the imposing and nearly vertical slopes.
The main plantel is perfect for a large house with plentiful parking, a tropical garden and what could be a jewel of this property – an infinity pool which looks down onto the ocean blueness and jungle greenery below. Imagine relaxing on the lounge or gliding through the waters of your pool while the sky is lit up a fiery sunset of reds, oranges and purples, all reflecting in the Pacific waters below. And around you are the sounds of the jungle – monkeys, macaws, parrots, toucans, oropendolas and numerous tropical birds and animals provide you with the most relaxing and natural soundtrack while electric blue morpho butterflies silently glide through the property, amazing with their huge iridescent wings that can be seen from kilometres away.
There are options for a mix of residential-commercial utilization – a road can be developed to access the lower parts of the property with an amazing opportunity to create two or three additional plantels. A café, restaurant, or short- or long-term accommodation options are on the table for a savvy and sharp entrepreneur – such a large tract of land so close to OJOCHAL could make for some brisk business!
Now a bit about the town of Ojochal, which is just a few minutes’ drive from the property – it is THE place to be – a hot real estate market driven by the town’s tropical surroundings, services and amenities, and proximity to some of the most scenic beaches, waterfalls and landscapes of Costa Rica. The town is known as an international village due to her popularity as a destination for locals, expats and tourists alike. World-class dining options surround the local area as do yoga studios and fitness centres, hotels and guesthouses, cafes, shops and supermarkets, medical clinics, legal offices, hardware stores and many other businesses. But Ojochal is also a true jungle town with numerous mountain rivers, streams and waterfalls criss-crossing the area, all types of beautiful jungle creatures living in harmony with the local residents, and a canopy of towering trees immersing the homes and businesses giving a true ‘jungle village’ vibe.
High-speed internet is accessible and electricity and legal water are available at the property – so the shovels can hit the ground without delay! An ocean-view plantel on a massive lot, with easy road access, commercial development options and a quick hop away from Ojochal is presented to you on a silver platter
