Casa Santa Fe has what discerning buyers are seeking in today's market
Casa Santa Fe has what discerning buyers are seeking in today's market - design perfection, quality craftsmanship, user-friendly floor plan, great outdoor living spaces, incredible style, and above all else, WORLD CLASS VIEWS! The viewscape is mesmerizing, and one would be hard pressed to find a more dramatic and breathtaking view anywhere in Costa Rica. Perfectly positioned between Uvita and Ojochal on a quiet mountainside and near the end of the road with a steep, verdant, jungle backdrop and only 6 minutes to a little-known beach cove (Playa Pinuela), this property embodies what high level buyers seek in the Southern Zone and Ballena Coast. The one level floor plan includes three corner, master-type suites (all with dual vanities) along with a generous great room with cozy sitting areas, a modern kitchen, a hidden pantry, a wet bar, bistro seating, and an island, all of which flow flawlessly to the infinity edged pool, patio and into the visual depths of the Pacific Ocean. Just as the steep jungle mountains contrast with the royal blue ocean below, this modern home has warm touches of natural dessert tones and inviting decor. The principal bedroom is partially cantilevered over a rainforest valley, creating a floating sensation with a wrap-around, two-sided terrace. The en-suite bathroom is oversized and not only has an enormous dual vanity but also boasts dual rain shower heads, a bathtub (with a view) on the covered terrace, and private access to the back patio and garden seating area. It's truly luxurious. One of the best features of the home is the southern-coastal ocean view courtyard patio escape, which faces away from sunset and afternoon rays. The natural stone wall combines perfectly with the tropical landscaping, and an inviting seating area is well positioned by the outdoor grill and fire feature. THE VIEW: the majority of the ocean view homes hope to have one or two great view features, such as year-round sunset, the Whale's Tail, etc. A property's view merit is based on which and how many features are seen. In the fortunate case of Casa Santa Fe, the view stretches from Manuel Antonio National Park to the far north, includes year-round sunset, the iconic Whale's Tail, the Three Sister and Ballena rock island (very close by), whitewater coastline, Caño Island, and the southern coastline all the way to the Osa Peninsula. An argument could be made that this property has one of the most desirable and dramatic views in the country - not to mention the sweeping valley views and towering jungle backdrop to the east. The home is brand new and was built by some of the area's leading boutique home builders, combining over a dozen years of local experience and contacts into what is likely their most beautiful home to date. We invite you to walk through the home yourself and dare you not to have your breath taken away every time you enter the front door.
