Full Description: Renovated and remodeled Pacific coast home with back yard swimming pool in the town of Ojochal, part of the Osa Peninsula Region in South Costa Rica. A waist high wrought iron fence marks the front boundry of this Osa Peninsula real estate and runs from side to side. A small privacy gate opens up to a crushed stone entry drive that leads to the home. The front yard is landscaped and manicured with ornamental plants, trees, and flowers. This keeps the house virtually hidden from sight in the mix of landscape. At the end of the drive is a covered walk thru carport that allows for direct access to the backyard swimming pool and terrace entertainment area. A separate green zone flourishes behind the home with some old growth trees and rain forest land that lye along the rear property line. In between the swimming pool and the backyard property line, a field of soft grass has aptly taken root. This area would be terrific for planting fruit trees, gardening, or just left as an open green zone for both kids and pets to enjoy the tropical outdoors. The lands that surround this Osa Peninsula real estate are a mix of rain forest and mountain land. The outdoor swimming pool is first class in both quality and size. The pool has been professionally maintained and kept in mint condition in every sense. This is a true swimming pool and not a wading pool. An outdoor shower is readily available for a rinse before or after a swim. The swimming pool and terrace are well mixed in the landscape but a groomed hedge and various plants around the terrace provide an added degree of privacy and the feel of the tropics. A covered entry porch has room for seating and seves as the entrance to the front door for the homeowners and their guests. The interior is a very welcome and comfortable open floor plan. A relaxing den/TV and media room are at the front of the home to the left of the entrance. The center portion of the home serves as the great room, dining room, and at the far end is an open kitchen. The ground story level also has three comfortable bedrooms (or two bedrooms and an office), and two bathrooms. The design was well thought out so that each room in the house has its own individual feel and flair. The current owners have replaced the ceramic tile floors throughout the house. All windows are screened to take advantage of the fresh natural breeze. Some finely done wrought iron metal works were crafted for each window and exterior door. These provide both an artful, astetical compliment to the home as well as added security. Professionally installed air conditioning for those days or nights that it may be needed. A new refrigerator and kitchen stove will transfer with the purchase. Wooden interior stairs lead to a second level of the home. This level has rather low ceilings, two small rooms (that might be combined into one), and a separate bathroom, so it would serve well for a younger child. The current homeowners use this space as extra storage room. Ojochal is populated by people from many differant countries, including Americans, Canadians, Western Europeans, and the native Costa Rican population as well. On the South Pacific Coast, Ojochal is well known for fine cuisine due to the diversity of its residents that operate restaurants and bars in the area. Plenty of native wildlife with Green Parrots, Toucans, Scarlet McCaws, Parakeets, Hummingbirds, Iguana, White Face Monkeys, Howler Monkeys, and the incredible Blue Morph Butterfly, all living in the surrounding bosque and forest lands. Just minutes from some of the finest beaches and parks in Costa Rica including Playa Tortuga, Playa Ventanas, Playa Pinuela, Playa Ballena, Playa Uvita, Playa Hermosa, Playa Dominicalito, Playa Dominical, Marino Ballena National Park, home of the famous "Whales Tail" rock formation and coral reefs, and Rancho La Merced National Wildlife Refuge on the coast. Marino Ballena has the largest coral reef on the Pacific Coast of Central America forms a crescent necklace with the three small islands known as Las Tres Hermanas (three sisters) and Ballena island as the center piece. The park stretches from the southern end of Playa Hermosa to the northern end of Playa Piñuela and about 9 miles (15 km) seaward. Great access on the Pacific Coast Highway to the newest southern zone Hospital in Cortez, the site of the proposed new southern zone International Airport, and the 30,000 + hectare Terraba Sierpe National Wetlands, which protect the extensive river mouth delta systems, estuaries, and wetlands between the Terraba River and the Sierpe River. Terraba Sierpe has one of the largest protected Mangrove reserves in the world and an enormous, intricate conglomerate of river deltas, estuaries, and wetlands that wind between the rivers and up to Boca Sierpe (mouth of the river), where the river meets the ocean. The mangroves, like an estuary, provide a unique, protective ecosystem that supports an exceptional and diverse amount of life, particularly waterfowl and fish. Boca Sierpe leads to the shorelines of Isla Violines Island, Drake Bay, and Isla Cano Island. Drake Bay sees a yearly migration of whales that come to calve and feed their young, and is home to a multitude of dolphin. The town of Sierpe is in the lush and beautiful Valle De Diquis (Diquis Valley). The valley is well known for its giant hand carved spheres of stone and other archaeological relics from pre-columbian times.
