Handsome Home with Cabin and River in Tinamastes

Take pride in owning this stunning custom-built, industrial style home completed in 2015. Located only one kilometer off the main road through Tinamaste (known for Tuesday's organic market), the home is ideally situated a short twenty minutes from both beaches and major shopping and medical/dental services in San Isidro de El General.

Surrounded by 5.5 acres of mother nature, this property carries with it multiple species of wildlife, 2 natural springs, river frontage and ever-changing views of the towering Tinamaste's ridge. A 200 square foot, fully-serviced cabin, with kitchen, bath, and sleeping areas, is also on-site and within easy walking distance of the main house.

The house boasts 8" concrete walls, buried utilities and engineering features that will stand the test of time. Reliable internet (both standard/fiber optic available), phone line, municipal water, on-demand gas water heater, and 100 amp electrical service keeps everything running smoothly and efficiently. Oversized eaves, concrete aprons, and multiple drainage plans provide protection from Costa Rica's annual rainfalls. With 12 fully operable screened windows, along with multiple glass block, this home is never short of natural light.

The unique central dogtrot design separates the sleeping/bath area from that of the kitchen/living room and provides natural ventilation and extra living space. For additional ventilation, ceiling fans are located in both bedrooms and living rooms. All bathroom and kitchen hardware is imported, as well as all major lighting fixtures (LED's throughout). Directly off of the living room area is a dry room designed for storage and moisture control. Various design elements such as wood, glass and light metals are incorporated throughout the home.

The two bedrooms connect directly to the bathroom which has three independent areas for the water closet, oversized shower, and vanity (with teak-wood counter and shelving). The spacious kitchen is divided from the living room by an eleven-foot island made of locally sourced Guanacaste wood. Two lower shelves allow for extensive storage of foodstuffs and kitchen hardware (plates, glasses, bowls, etc). The kitchen features a five-element gas cooktop and a unique coffee-station with room for an additional oven or microwave.

Enjoy strolling from the dogtrot bar and entering the uniquely designed plunge pool complete with built-in bench seating and in-pool lighting. Sit back and immerse yourself in the gorgeous views. Wake early to experience magnificent sunrises or have a nighttime dip and watch the moon creep across the sky. With its purpose-built permanent pool cover, you can enjoy the pool year-round and upkeep/maintenance costs are nominal. …Read Less
