Located in the quaint mountain town of Platanillo only 18 minutes from Dominical beach and 30 minutes to San Isidro (Perez Zeledon). This home and property with plant nursery and extra building area (on separate plot map) are at the end of a private road with 5 acres surrounding it for complete privacy. Also another property that is not continuous is being sold with the home and extra lot which is down the street and is unusable forest for preservation adding another 3.48 acres. Although you feel completely secluded in nature, the location is still only minutes to supermarkets, local restaurants, hardware store, and more.
The home was built in 2010 by the current owner and they have put their heart and soul into the property. A retired landscaper and avid birder, they have planted specific varieties of trees and flowers to attract abundant species of birds and hummingbirds daily around the house. The mature landscaping and gardens are a vivid array of colors, fragrances, and constant enjoyment from your visiting feathered friends.
From the carport area you enter the home on the upper level with covered wrap around porch to enjoy the mountain views and surrounding forest. The kitchen and dining, as well as, the primary bedroom and full bathroom are on this level’s interior.
Going downstairs from the exterior staircase you arrive at another covered porch area and tiled pool. Inside on the lower level is another bedroom and full bath, plus a theater room and office with TV and AC. There is also a dedicated dry room closet for storing linens and other items that should be nice and dry. This could also be a great owner’s closet if you made the home a rental. The theater room and office could be converted easily to a 3rd bedroom if one desired.
The extra mountain view lot is beyond the home and far enough away you could build a rental home on it and not detract from your complete privacy. Or build a larger dream home there and make this current home a future rental or guest house. This property has a green house and nursery of various plants, flowers and orchids, plus numerous mature fruit trees listed below….
