Set high in the gated Nativa Resort community, this contemporary tropical villa looks out over the Tárcoles River estuary where it meets the Pacific Ocean, with sweeping views of the mountains and the Punta Leona peninsula. Built in 2020, the home blends clean, modern design with warm Costa Rican character and is surrounded by lush gardens and mature trees. Most of the home sits on a single level with no stairs, which makes it easy and comfortable to live in. The open-concept kitchen, living and dining area centers on a large quartz island and adds a walk-in pantry and a double refrigerator/freezer. It flows straight out to the covered terrace, wood deck and private swimming pool, so indoor-outdoor living comes naturally. The home has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, all bright and air-conditioned with oversized tile floors and large windows framing ocean, garden and treetop views. The primary suite opens directly onto the pool deck and includes a walk-in closet and separate vanities. One bedroom works well as a private office or guest suite. Other features include a rooftop entertainment terrace, a large gym or recreation room, laundry and storage areas, an outdoor shower, a 2 car parking plus guest parking, and a private tropical garden. The villa is about 1 km from Carara National Park, known for its scarlet macaws and wildlife, and close to the beaches of the Central Pacific coast. It works equally well as a full-time residence, a vacation retreat or an investment property
