Ocean View Clean Energy Home in the Heart of Escaleras Dominical

Property overview

Located in the heart of Escaleras, this property is close to nearby restaurants and beaches. The entrance is unassuming, with a wooden gate camouflaged within tall bamboo that leads down a long driveway surrounded by jungle and a planted fruit forest. Although connected to local electricity, the home is primarily powered by solar energy, which significantly reduces operating costs. Another key feature is the legally registered private deep-water well that provides fresh, clean potable water throughout the home.

The structure sits approximately 15 feet above the ground to take advantage of ocean views and breezes. Living spaces are elevated into the forest canopy, where you will find yourself eye-to-eye with monkeys, toucans, and other jungle wildlife. An indoor pool forms the centerpiece of the living space and continues outward to wrap-around hardwood decks. There are two ocean-view suites with private baths and comfortable lounge areas, plus an upstairs loft that overlooks the living room, pool, and Pacific horizon.

The home has a distinct bohemian style, meticulously designed and handcrafted to create an authentic sense of artistry and wonder. The tiles were imported from Indonesia. Decorative shutters are reclaimed antique Indonesian hardwoods from Java, some more than 100 years old. Much of the flooring is Guapinol (Brazilian cherry), and a designer fireplace imported from France is suspended poolside to create warm ambiance in the evening. A standalone antique tub off the primary suite is positioned for sunset ocean views.

The property includes an extensive array of exotic fruit trees planted over many years, including mango, papaya, banana, plantain, coconut, jackfruit, mangosteen, avocado, rambutan, starfruit, guanábana, pineapple, and many more.

Escaleras in Dominical is one of the most sought-after neighborhoods in the Southern Pacific, known for dramatic views, a cooler year-round climate, and easy access to beaches and waterfalls. The nearby Scala Plaza adds convenience with dining, specialty shopping, and wellness services. This property also has strong potential as an income-producing rental for buyers seeking a unique, high-character home in a competitive vacation market.
