# 5.2 ACRES – 2 BEDROOM HOME WITH 60 FT INFINITY LAP POOL, 1 BEDROOM GUEST HOUSE, FABULOUS OCEAN VIEW, MATURE FRUIT TREES

Perched at approximately 1,500 feet elevation on Cacao Ridge in Platanillo, this 5.2-acre estate captures the essence of Southern Costa Rica's most sought-after address. Just five minutes via well-maintained gravel road to Platanillo's village center, and a mere ten-minute drive down paved roads to the celebrated surf destination of Playa Dominical, the property offers the perfect balance of seclusion and accessibility. The elevated position delivers consistent trade winds, a temperate microclimate, and panoramic vistas spanning both ocean and mountain horizons—precisely what draws increasingly discerning international buyers to this burgeoning region.

The primary residence spans 2,800 square feet and commands attention immediately. A gated entry from the public road leads to a single-car carport offering weather-protected access during Costa Rica's rainy season, supplemented by a traditional front entrance. The interior layout prioritizes both intimate retreats and entertaining potential, with master and guest bedrooms anchoring opposite ends of the home and common living spaces flowing through the center. The master suite features an ensuite bathroom, generous closet, and a flexible adjacent room suited for a walk-in closet or private office. The second bedroom shares access to a full guest bathroom. Two oversized storage closets—measuring 7 ft x 10 ft and 7 ft x 8 ft respectively—provide flexibility for short-term rental applications.

The chef's kitchen showcases stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, dual sinks, and expansive preparation surfaces, while sight lines to the ocean extend from every vantage point. The living and dining areas flow seamlessly onto a covered patio overlooking the crown jewel: a breathtaking 60-foot infinity lap pool with adjacent pool deck amenities including outdoor shower and half bath, ensuring swimmers never need retreat indoors.

The guest house comprises 660 square feet of independent accommodation, accessible via separate road gate or internal connection to the main residence. This structure includes a sizable covered carport, secure storage bodega, equipped kitchen, living area, bedroom, full bathroom, and walk-in closet—with ample land remaining for future pool installation and ocean views of its own.

Water security stems from dual sources: municipal ASADA service and a private concessioned deep well. The mature landscape showcases productive fruit trees—avocado, guava, red and yellow bananas, lemon, mandarina, and additional citrus varieties—interspersed with tropical flowering specimens, architectural cacti, and fragrant Ylang-Ylang trees that perfume the grounds year-round.
