A Charming Estate Home

Casa Los Jardines, a property of almost 3 1/2 acres, whose expansive grounds also offer the opportunity for the addition of a Guest Casita, is located in Costa Rica's southern zone in the coastal foothills of Platanillo de Barú, at 1,500 feet, overlooking the Pacific Ocean, just 15 minutes away, and the magnificent Guabo and San Juan de Dios Valleys. Nestled amidst lush  jungle and rolling pastures it has breathtaking 360 deg views. There is an ideal microclimate here which keeps temperatures in the 73-85 deg. range all year round, with abundant sunshine, even during the 'Green' (rainy) season, and cooling pacific breezes in the summer, having no need for either heating or airconditioning. Paradise found!

Wrought iron gates leading to a driveway lined with majestic towering Royal Palms mark your arrival at Casa Los Jardines. This Spanish-style haven is an architectural gem, surrounded by its lush tropical gardens and offering captivating views of the ocean, sunset, mountains and valleys below.

Stepping through the custom-carved double entry doors of this meticulously crafted 2,400 sq.ft block-built, two-story three bedroom two and a half bathroom home you are greeted by ceramic-tiled floors that span the entirety of the house. The staircase, adorned with wrought iron handrails, leads to soaring vaulted hardwood ceilings throughout the residence with cedar tablia and recessed lighting, creating an atmosphere of grandeur and space. Fully screened windows and sliding doors invite gentle cooling breezes and panoramic views into every room.
