Luxury Ocean View Home in Ojochal Costa Rica | Infinity Pool & Sunset Views

THE SETTING

The elevated 3bed home, on generous 1.31 acres, sits in the quiet, exclusive Cinco Ventanas Phase 8 community above Ojochal. Perched on a no exit street & backed by protected jungles, the property shares the street with only two other homes - guaranteeing privacy, peace, & uninterrupted views.

At roughly 210 meters (690 ft) above the Pacific, you’ll enjoy cooler temperatures, comfortable humidity, and steady mountain & sea breezes — plus those spectacular 270-degree OCEAN VIEWS. Yet world class dining experiences and some of the best-in-the-world beaches are mere minutes away from the home. So are modern conveniences, luxuries and local chill spots like rivers, swim holes, trails, and waterfalls. A rare blend of elevation, seclusion, beauty and easy access.

THE HOME

Raised by renowned builder Leif Bernard, who resides in the area with his family, this masterpiece of construction & design seamlessly blends strength, beauty & utility. The home is known as “Lugar para Ser’ – meaning “A Place to Be’ – and it is easy to understand why.

The undeniable star of the property is the breathtaking back patio and a large, curving infinity pool overlooking the Pacific. The huge patio runs the full length of the home and includes a 6 seat dining table, coffee lounge, and an outdoor kitchen with fridge, BBQ, sink, storage, plus extra seating and sun loungers. With a roof, ample lighting and ceiling fans, it’s built for comfort in any weather, day or night.

The large infinity pool reaches toward the Pacific, its surface lining up with the horizon - so it melts seamlessly into the ocean. Watch the sun fall toward the ocean, then ease into the pool and catch its final light shimmering across the surface. You can also watch the Moon, Saturn, Venus, or Jupiter set into the ocean (or pool) waters – not to mention the ever-shifting constellations. A sky gazer’s paradise.

The home centers around a huge open living space with a sliding glass wall that opens the entire west side to the patio, pool, and ocean—true indoor–outdoor living. One end of the living space holds a large & modernkitchen with a 4seat breakfast bar; the other, an airy lounge with a bigscreen TV and ample & comfortable seating. The vaulted wood ceiling, white walls, and warm furnishings create a calm, coastalluxury atmosphere with an inviting natural vibe.

Behind the kitchen sits a large pantry, a separate laundry room, a kitchenette, and the spacious master bedroom which opens to the patio through a sliding door set into a fully glazed wall. The stoneclad, opulent main bathroom delivers pure luxury and is paired with a separate powder room. Outside, a monsoon shower adds convenience for guests and pool users.

On the opposite side of the home are two additional bedrooms, each with slidingglass access to the front patio. One room, with an ensuite, includes a fold-down bed – creating a very flexible space. A shared & gorgeous stoneclad bathroom is accessible from both bedrooms and the central living area.

UTILITY INDEPENDENCE & BACKUP

The home is fully secure with an 18 kWh solar minifarm and 40 kWh battery storage, producing 2300 kWh per month and saving $650 monthly on electricity costs. This solar system holds an 8 year remaining warranty. A 22-kW propane generator provides secondary backup and two 6,000liter (1590 USG)water tanks ensure ample supply. The priceless value of this system will become clear once the green season rains begin – not to mention the ($) saved every month!

THE VIEWS

The Luxury Home sits on a ridge that takes maximum advantage of the most iconic views over the Pacific Ocean – an unobstructed 270 degree ocean sweep that covers 45,000 km2 of Pacific waters. The vistas stretch from the Osa Peninsula & Corcovado NP – 100km to the south – through to the Nicoya Peninsula, 200km to the north. In between, Isla Violín, the ‘Three Sisters’ sea stacks, Isla Ballena, Caño Island, the ‘Whale’s Tail’ tombolo, and Quepos with Manuel Antonio NP fill in the canvas. These waters form major Humpback Whale calving grounds — the owner often sees the animals and has even witnessed the whales giving birth. The whales’ songs occasionally reverberate through the house. And the seas are known as PRIME sport-fishing waters – just ask Michael Jordan!

Behind the home, 1,000meter coastal mountains rise like silent sentinels, wearing a cloak of mists, brilliant white clouds and montane & cloud forests. These are the lands of tapirs & jaguars. In the green season, massive waterfalls — some hundreds of meters tall — spill down their slopes, close enough to hear. Jungles, river valleys, and the Pacific vistas wrap the property from every direction.

JUNGLE ANIMALS

The daily dawn & dusk symphonies are something to marvel at. Glass & tree frogs, howler monkeys, toucans, parakeets, macaws, oropendolas, cicadas and untold species of birds will see you off to bed and welcome you every morning, their concerto changing with the seasons. Huge tracts of tropical rainforests on three sides of the property are teeming with wildlife – and you can expect house visits from several species of monkeys, toucans & toucanets, sloths, blue morpho butterfliers, macaws, coatis, anteaters, and many other jungle critters. Paradise, indeed.

 ACCESS, DRIVEWAY & PARKING

The home is easily accessed via a 4.5km prepared road branching from the Costanera highway, passing Plaza Ventanas shopping mall and climbing through the Cinco Ventanas community with spectacular jungle and mountain views. It sits within an exclusive development of beautiful homes surrounded by lush tropical greenery. Located on a quiet noexit street, local traffic is virtually zero.

The property welcomes with a striking crafted entry gate and a winding brick driveway which climbs gently towards the 2-car garageandhuge parking area.

DEVELOPMENT, NEIGHBORING LOTS & INCOME GENERATION

The 1.31 acre land holds enough spare acreage to build several cabins – perfect guest or house-keeper accommodation. In addition, the immediate neighbouring lots – to the left and right of the property & holding separate deeds - may be available for further development if so desired. Purchasing these lots would GUARANTEE total privacy and ensure that sections of your views are forever protected.

And with such striking views & luxury, an Airbnb offer would deliver exceptional occupancy and returns – not to mention the options for lucrative long-term rental agreements or exclusive event hosting offers. There is no exaggeration in saying that a discerning tenant or event tourist will pay TOP DOLLAR to stay at this slice of heaven. …Read Less
