# 3.48 Acres – 3 Bedroom Luxury Residence with Panoramic Ocean, Valley & Jungle Vistas in Gated Community
Perched above the Southern Pacific region, this 4,500-square-foot luxury home commands sweeping views of the Pacific Ocean, verdant jungle valleys, and distant mountains—a vista that transforms with each sunset. Nestled within a secure, gated community in Platanillo, this residence exemplifies the caliber of opportunity attracting sophisticated buyers to Costa Rica's most coveted region.
The property encompasses 3.48 acres of meticulously curated landscape, with more than half professionally designed to evoke a serene park-like ambiance. Winding pathways, curated landscape furnishings, and an angel sculpture by a celebrated local artisan guide visitors through the grounds, where productive fruit trees and rare orchids flourish. Complete fencing ensures canine companions enjoy safe roaming space, including a contained run when needed. An exquisite hand-forged iron "tree of life" gate announces arrival with artisanal refinement, reflecting the owners' commitment to aesthetic excellence throughout.
The furnished main residence features three bedrooms and three bathrooms, complemented by a dedicated office and fitness studio—both easily convertible to additional bedrooms, accommodating up to five guests. The master suite showcases an expansive window seat capturing unobstructed views, with direct patio access facilitating seamless indoor-outdoor living. A spa-caliber master bath features an oversized Jacuzzi with dual water and air jet systems plus chromatic lighting, while a discrete water closet and abundant storage enhance privacy and convenience.
A chef's kitchen flows naturally into the living spaces, appointed with premium stainless steel built-in appliances and custom cabinetry. The pantry functions as both dry storage and secure provisions room. This open-concept arrangement culminates on an exceptionally generous patio and deck—likely where life unfolds. An integrated outdoor kitchen features a built-in BBQ, sink, refrigeration, cabinetry, and ventilated hood fan, while a resort-style salt-water pool with ambient mood lighting creates an entertainment sanctuary. A tiled outdoor shower, integrated sound system spanning patio, pool, and master suite, and Jacuzzi within arm's reach complete the experience.
Throughout the residence, bespoke woodwork—from kitchen cabinetry and teak center island to the front door and all closets—reflects meticulous craftsmanship and North American-grade construction standards. The gated community maintains an on-site caretaker family, while multi-layer security includes perimeter sensors, video surveillance, audio monitoring, and strategically positioned exterior lighting. Gate-integrated video and audio systems permit visitor screening from any room; backup battery systems ensure continuous operation.
Designed with environmental consciousness, the home features LED illumination throughout, a solar hot water system with electrical backup, and an energy-efficient pool pump. Climate control combines strategic ceiling fans—leveraging Platanillo's elevated location and naturally cool mountain breezes—with installed air conditioning in the master bedroom and expansion capability for additional rooms. Propane powers the stove, dryer, and BBQ; generator infrastructure stands ready if desired. Ceramic-tiled perimeter walkways provide weatherproof accessibility, while a separate storage bodega accommodates equipment or vehicles.
Connectivity spans high-speed internet and cable television. Positioned at road's end, the property remains only 800 meters from the primary highway, granting seclusion without remoteness. Platanillo's serene elevation delivers respite from coastal humidity while maintaining proximity to regional attractions: Dominical's casual beach culture lies 15 minutes away, while Uvita and San Isidro—offering full commercial amenities—require 25 minutes.
This sanctuary materializes the tropical retirement fantasy: pristine privacy, mountain-cooled comfort, comprehensive security, and the jungle and ocean's constant companionship, all anchored within reach of modern conveniences.
