Beautiful Property in the Heart of Ojochal

This charming 0.45-acre property in the center of Ojochal combines mountain views, traditional-style homes, a swimming pool, and lush mature gardens—all at a very attractive price.

Location

Perfectly situated in a quiet and safe neighborhood, this property has everything you could ask for: a main house, pool house, swimming pool, carport, garage, outdoor bar, yoga/sun deck, hammock garden, fruit and palm trees, and a spacious front lawn. Access is simple—no 4x4 required—and the mountain backdrop makes every day feel like paradise in Costa Ballena.

Few homes in Ojochal can match this convenience. You’ll be just a 5-minute walk to a local convenience store and about 10 minutes to the supermarket, with part of the route featuring a brand-new sidewalk. Nearby, you’ll also find the public library, a community center with a soccer field, and the Wednesday farmers’ market—perfect for fresh produce and local goods.

Families will appreciate the proximity to schools: only 300 meters to Escuela Tortuga elementary school and close to several private schools. Playa Tortuga beach is just 3.5 km away, and Plaza Ventanas—offering professional services, health care, restaurants, and a gas station—is less than 5 km from your doorstep. The nearest hospital, in Ciudad Cortes, is only a 15-minute drive.

Outdoor enthusiasts will love the nearby trails, rivers, waterfalls, and mountain views, as well as the area’s many restaurants, bars, and beaches.

Outdoor Spaces

Living in the tropics means making the most of outdoor living, and this property is designed for just that. The gated entrance and driveway are framed by a manicured lawn, palm and fruit trees, and flowering shrubs, leading to the garage and carport.

At the upper level, you’ll find a palm-covered hammock garden perfect for relaxing, plus an outdoor bar beside the pool house. The large swimming pool has a fresh tile finish and plenty of deck space for lounging. On the other side of the property, the main house’s outdoor living area offers bamboo seating and a traditional dining set, ideal for meals and gatherings.

Below this level is a spacious ceramic-tiled deck, perfect for yoga, stargazing, or simply enjoying Costa Rica’s magical night skies. With the lush gardens and tropical vegetation, birdwatchers will be delighted by the variety of species seen year-round, including migratory birds.

Indoor Spaces

The main house features a traditional design with high wooden ceilings, ceramic details, and warm natural finishes that reflect Costa Rica’s “Pura Vida” lifestyle. It includes two bedrooms: a king-sized master suite and a queen-sized guest room, both with air conditioning and en-suite bathrooms (the guest bathroom also connects to the living area). Each bedroom is furnished with quality wood furniture and built-in closets.

The open living room flows into the kitchen, which has a central island/breakfast bar and generous counter space.

The pool house is a private retreat on its own, complete with a kitchenette, air-conditioned bedroom, and bathroom. Behind it, you’ll find the laundry area with a stacked washer and dryer.

Atmosphere

The entire property is securely fenced, creating a sense of privacy while still being part of a welcoming community. The neighborhood is a balanced mix of local Tico families and international residents, offering a safe, friendly environment where neighbors look out for one another.

This property captures the true essence of Ojochal—peaceful, practical, and full of tropical charm.
