Property overview

# Casa Aracari: Elevated Living in Ojochal's Premier Gated Community

Perched 700 feet above sea level atop a hilltop sanctuary, Casa Aracari commands one of Ojochal's most breathtaking panoramas—a sweeping 200-degree vista where the Pacific Ocean and virgin rainforest valley converge directly below. This 2-bedroom residence, strategically constructed on steel and concrete pillars, elevates its living spaces to the second floor, positioning residents at eye level with soaring birds and their nests while the symphony of nature provides constant accompaniment.

The heart of the home flows seamlessly from a tiled patio overlooking the expansive garden through generous living and kitchen areas. A breakfast bar with seating, 4-burner electric stove/oven, single-door refrigerator/freezer, and microwave integrated into wooden shelving define the culinary space. The primary bedroom—aptly named for its stunning vistas—frames the 200-degree ocean and rainforest panorama through multiple windows. The second bedroom accommodates both a queen and single bed, offering equally compelling rainforest views. A full bathroom serves both sleeping quarters. Originally designed as a guest house, the property was pre-wired for expansion; the expansive ground floor beneath the patio presents exceptional potential for a third bedroom, office, exercise room, or laundry facility. Current laundry facilities occupy the open area underneath with concrete flooring, basin, and hot/cold water access.

The 1-acre lot bursts with horticultural abundance—flowering specimens, mature banana, coconut, and lemon trees, plus strategically positioned almond trees that attract scarlet macaws within 30 feet of the balcony. Pool construction is entirely feasible 20 feet from the house, with soil testing already confirming suitability for both pool and additional structures. Ample acreage remains for dramatic home expansion or construction of a second residence.

Ojochal stands as Costa Rica's celebrated culinary capital, distinguished by its free community library, soccer pitch, and weekly farmers market at the village hall. Fiber optic infrastructure sits less than 30 feet away, ensuring superfast internet connectivity. Wireless service via the nearby ICE tower—visible from the property with consistent 5-bar signal at 2 kilometers distance—or Skyfiber with satellite dish provide additional connectivity options.

The owners' decision to sell reflects changing personal circumstances rather than property limitations, as they had originally envisioned an expansive wraparound patio and pool installation.
