Contemporary Luxury Ocean And Mountain View Home With Large Lot, Phase 11, Ojochal, Puerto Cortes, Puntarenas, Puntarenas, Costa Rica 60501

Refined Tropical Living in Ojochal, Costa Rica

Set within one of Ojochal’s most desirable established communities, this exceptional three-bedroom residence combines sophisticated architectural design with the relaxed elegance of tropical indoor-outdoor living. Thoughtfully conceived by a North American architect, the home was designed to embrace Ojochal’s natural beauty while providing privacy, comfort, security, and exceptional functionality.

The architecture takes full advantage of the tropical setting, with expansive glass doors and windows positioned to capture ocean and mountain views while encouraging the natural flow of Costa Rica’s cooling ocean and mountain breezes. The home is exceptionally well ventilated, creating a comfortable connection between the interior spaces and the surrounding landscape, while air conditioning is provided in each bedroom for additional comfort when desired.

Each of the three bedrooms functions as a private boutique-style suite, complete with its own ensuite bathroom and exterior deck. Generous glass openings on three sides of each bedroom create an abundance of natural light, fresh air, and ever-changing views, while the individual outdoor spaces provide a sense of privacy and retreat.

The ensuite bathrooms continue the home’s emphasis on tropical living, featuring open-air design, rainfall-style sunflower showerheads as well as handheld wands, and illuminated bathroom mirrors. The experience is distinctly Costa Rican: luxurious, private, and immersed in nature.

Throughout the residence, beautifully ventilated Guanacaste wood millwork and wood ceiling throughout the house add warmth and character, complemented by custom-designed furniture created specifically for the home. High-end fixtures, appliances, and finishes are thoughtfully incorporated throughout the residence, creating an interior that feels sophisticated and highly considered without sacrificing the relaxed character of a tropical home.

At the heart of the home, a fully furnished and thoughtfully appointed kitchen and adjacent outdoor barbecue station offer a move-in-ready experience, while a spacious walk-in pantry provides exceptional storage. Functional and stylish ventilated storage areas are incorporated throughout the residence, demonstrating an unusual level of attention to everyday practicality. A dedicated central laundry room includes generous shelving and a laundry sink, further enhancing the home's efficiency and livability.

A grand modern staircase forms a dramatic architectural centerpiece, connecting the home's levels through a sweeping circulation plan designed to frame and reveal the surrounding views. Throughout the residence, the architecture creates a natural progression between private spaces, social areas, gardens, pool, and expansive tropical vistas.

Outside, the property unfolds across a gently rolling, open orchard landscape with several level plateaus offering flexibility for a variety of uses. The grounds have been thoughtfully landscaped with a mix of indigenous and ornamental tropical plants, including ylang-ylang, ginger, agave, papyrus, birds of paradise, butterfly-attracting plants, and multiple varieties of decorative palms.

The mature landscape is complemented by more than 16 established fruit trees, including mango, avocado, lime, lemon, coconut, banana, plantain, star fruit, and almond. The gardens were intentionally designed not simply for aesthetic enjoyment, but to encourage biodiversity and attract butterflies and birds, and indigenous wildlife, creating a living tropical experience that changes throughout the seasons.

An infinity-edge swimming pool and large lounge chair patio take full advantage of the setting, facing the orchard and extending the home's indoor-outdoor living experience toward the Pacific ocean and surrounding mountains. An inviting outdoor barbecue and entertaining area provides the perfect complement to the pool and gardens, creating an additional space for relaxed gatherings and al fresco dining while enjoying the tropical surroundings.

The property is equally impressive in its practical infrastructure. Thoughtful water management and site drainage have been incorporated into the design to work efficiently within Costa Rica's tropical environment. Solar backup power, whole house surge protection, an oversized septic tank, and a 515-gallon auto-fill backup water storage tank with filtration system provide additional resilience and peace of mind. A gated entrance provides privacy and security, complemented by a robust curtain-wall-style security system and cameras that can be monitored and controlled remotely through a smartphone app.

A covered two-vehicle parking area provides convenient protected parking as well as a substantial bodega/storage area. Three large, security-conscious ventilated storage closets provide additional space for equipment, tools, recreational gear, and household belongings, while ocean and mountain views extend even to this highly functional portion of the property.

This is a home where architecture, landscape, tropical climate, and everyday functionality have been thoughtfully integrated rather than treated as separate elements. From the natural ventilation and Guanacaste craftsmanship to the open-air bathrooms, private bedroom decks, mature orchard, infinity pool, and extensive storage, every aspect reflects a commitment to comfortable and sophisticated tropical living.

Located in Ojochal, one of the Southern Pacific Zone’s most desirable communities, the property offers the rare combination of an established residential setting, beautiful ocean and mountain views, mature landscaping, and convenient access to the beaches, restaurants, waterfalls, nature, and outdoor adventures that make this region of Costa Rica so sought after.

This architect-designed Ojochal residence offers privacy, tropical elegance, exceptional indoor-outdoor living, mature gardens, an established orchard, ocean and mountain views, and the thoughtful functionality expected of a truly turn-key Costa Rica home.
