A Teak Palace – within earshot of Marino Ballena National Park’s crashing surf – but mere steps away from cafes, restaurants, fun and amenities of the tourist mecca Uvita!
With the crashing waves of the Pacific less than 400m away, the sights and fresh air of the sea will forever grace this wonderful home. And the greenery will remain undeveloped as the protected Marino Ballena National Park sits less than 100m from the house. Sportfishing, surfing, scuba, nature excursions, adrenaline activities and relaxation of Marino Ballena & Playa Uvita and Playa Hermosa, considered one of the most beautiful beaches in the world, will be within shouting distance of your beautiful 2-bedroom house.
But let’s not forget the other aspect of the location – easy access to modern world luxuries & essentials. Standing in central Uvita the house is steps away from cafes, restaurants, grocery shops, boutiques, convenience stores, day spas & hairdressers, and yoga & pilates studios (plus so much more)! The Uvita Market is within shouting distance and the main entrance to the National Park is just 800m away. And all around, specialized services and amenities extend in all directions including medical & dental clinics, legal & real estate offices, building & garden supply warehouses, car mechanics, large supermarkets, and many other amenities that sit in-town or along the Costanera highway just over 1 km away from the property.
The home is very unique in the Uvita area – draped in beautiful teak wood both inside & outside, warm brown floors and ceilings, and matching lumber artwork hanging on the walls or posing as doors, lamps or furniture, the interior perfectly and stunningly reflects the encompassing nature which surrounds the house. The bottom floor is one large open area containing the kitchen, living room and dining area. The spaciousness is felt as each area is subtly separated yet remains a part of the encompassing whole.
Upstairs, two bedrooms are accessed via an outdoor staircase and veranda which hugs 3 sides of the home. A large, overhanging roof protects these outdoor areas from rain and sun alike. The rooms look and feel like quaint log cabins – the teak wood lines the walls & ceilings while the lumber bed-frame and brown-tiled floors ensure the ‘warm and comfort’ effect. A bathroom with a shower is located on each floor of the house.
A large, covered dining area, lounge space and BBQ occupy the covered front-yard patio. Beyond, a beautiful front-yard swimming pool is graced by the blue, sunny skies – but an overhanging umbrella is there just in case a bit of shade is requested. Can you imagine relaxing in the pool with a cold drink in hand, with the smells of BBQ lunch and sounds of crashing waves completing the ‘paradise’ effect? And I did not even mention the macaws, toucans, sloths, monkeys and other jungle animals that will be your new neighbors!
With such a beautiful design, stunning location and ample amenities all around, this home can also be maintained as top rental accommodation – whether for short term or long term occupancy.
