Casa Almendro: Luxury, Comfort and Privacy in the Forest

More about this property

Few homes for sale in Costa Rica reflect the exceptional care given while designing Casa Almendro. It integrates world-class building materials, innovative ecological design and natural elements to create a truly unique home - all situated on a large 2.5-acre forested double lot at the end of a private road. Every detail of this 4BR/2.5BA house was carefully considered and no expense was spared in building Casa Almendro - in fact, the full construction budget is far greater than the seller's current asking price. The home's superstructure is exceptional - most notably, the interior space showcases exquisite hardwood trunk columns with precision fit walls that display the trees natural beauty. The interior space was meticulously designed for comfort. During the day, a balanced daylighting and shading design brings in light while keeping out heat with the help of carefully placed top-of-the-line Milgard Ultra double glazed, low-e coated windows and french doors. And state of the art, quiet and effective ceiling fans provide cooling where it's needed most. At night, by opening up the house to the cooler temperatures, the ceramic tiled concrete floors provide a reservoir of cooling for the next day's heat. And for an exquisite nighttime effect, indirect, warm light is featured throughout the house, eliminating the harsh glare of visible bulbs. Dimmable controls tailor light levels for every occasion. Casa Almendro is ideally located at the end of a private road on 2.5 acres (1 hectare) of forested property within a small, tranquil eco community. Traffic noise is almost zero, yet the home is just a few hundred yards from a paved highway. Playa Tamarindo is only 30 minutes away where limitless restaurants, huge supermarkets and private education and healthcare options can be found. And Liberia International Airport is just over an hour's drive away, providing easy access to worldwide flights daily. Casa Almendro combines the best of sustainable, ecological design with an exquisitely private-yet-accessible location.
