# 3-Bedroom Ocean View Estate in Exclusive Escaleras – Terrazas
Perched 1,000 feet above the Southern Pacific coast on 2.19 private acres, this architect-designed residence captures the essence of sophisticated tropical living while commanding sweeping vistas of both ocean and valley. A renowned Costa Rican architect shaped this home with a "Frank Lloyd Wright meets tropical" vision—one where soaring open-concept spaces dissolve the boundary between interior comfort and outdoor splendor, accented by textured stone walls that radiate warmth throughout.
**The Home's Soul**
The principal level flows seamlessly from a gourmet kitchen—outfitted with an expansive pantry, central island, and indoor-outdoor dining pass-through—into generous living and dining zones that spill onto a screened patio bar. Upstairs, the master suite unfolds with a spa-like ensuite, generous walk-in closet, and commanding views, while two additional spacious bedrooms share an elegant full bath. A concealed laundry suite with custom drying racks and folding station sits discreetly behind handcrafted sliding doors near the guest quarters.
**Where Nature Orchestrates the Day**
Floor-to-ceiling windows frame forest perspectives, while the home's ingenious design channels mountain and ocean breezes to maintain year-round comfort, reducing reliance on air conditioning. An infinity-edge pool with waterfall cascades become the centerpiece of sprawling lounge areas, where sunsets paint the sky above an expansive garden valley. The creek bordering the property whispers a natural soundtrack; below, waves crash against distant rocks—reminders of the ocean's proximity despite the serene mountain setting.
**Living in Motion**
Dominical's renowned expat community, vibrant cultural scene, and farm-to-table dining culture have transformed the region into Costa Rica's most dynamically evolving coastal destination. Just 12 minutes to Playa Hermosa's world-class breaks, minutes to acclaimed restaurants like Scala and Sibu Cafe, and a short drive to Dominical's eclectic scene or Uvita's expanding amenities, this location balances seclusion with accessibility.
**Beyond the Walls**
A developing fruit forest of 45+ trees—mature mangoes, bananas, pineapples—flourishes across the land, with trails descending to the creek. Daily wildlife encounters include howler monkeys, Scarlet Macaws, toucans, and tropical birds in abundance. Adventure lies nearby: whale watching at Marino Ballena National Park, zip-lining through jungle canopy, hiking to Nauyaca Waterfalls, and surfing the consistent swells of Dominical Beach.
**Investment & Lifestyle**
Situated at the terminus of a private road within the gated Escaleras – Terrazas enclave, this 3-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom residence offers the rare combination of investment-grade appreciation potential in the region's most coveted neighborhood with genuine retreat-style living. Whether as a retirement sanctuary, vacation hideaway, or income-generating property, this exceptional offering represents the pinnacle of Southern Pacific real estate.
