The Hidden Jungle Residence

Property overview

Built in 2025 with full concrete construction on 3.44 private acres in the hills above Dominical, this single-level home sits bordered by a year-round creek with small waterfalls and surrounded by primary rainforest — yet just minutes from beaches, restaurants, the weekly farmers market, and the services of the Southern Pacific coast. The 321 m² layout runs three bedrooms and two bathrooms across an open, well-lit floor plan designed for daily living rather than showcasing.

The kitchen anchors the central gathering space and connects naturally to covered outdoor areas. A private pool occupies a landscaped terrace, and the creek boundary ensures that the jungle on two sides remains permanently undisturbed — no future development, no neighboring rooftops. Wildlife moves through the property regularly: toucans, monkeys, and a changing cast of birds that come with the adjoining forest.

Properties like this — concrete construction, brand-new condition, substantial land, and a true jungle creek setting — have become increasingly difficult to find within easy reach of Dominical. The combination of 2WD road access, a year-round water feature, and fully move-in-ready condition gives this home strong appeal both as a primary residence and as a high-performing vacation rental in the Costa Ballena market.
