Luxury Estate Quality
This
outstanding titled property features a lovely winding private driveway to
the hilltop, overlooking the Golfito Bay and beyond. 1.8 hectares of well
tended grounds with the characteristics of this one make it, without a
doubt, one of the crown jewel home sites in all Golfito. Privacy, View and
Mature Estate-like Grounds are the perfect canvas to lay down a dream
project. The lay of the land can offer a savvy developer 3 potential areas
for building should one want to create a segregation of luxury home sites.
An upscale tourism project could conform nicely upon this area as well.
Other area projects on adjacent properties currently underway include
several luxury home sites. This corner of Golfito is promising to be one
of exclusivity and upscale distinction. Access by public road, power,
water and cable are all in place. Anyone serious about "preferred
properties" and wishing to take advantage of all the amenities Golfito is
coveted for will want to see this one.
Sale includes the seller's home of 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths featuring a
salon and swimming pool that take full advantage of the expansive view.
This graceful little home was built by ex-patriots in the early '90s of
block and cement construction is in good condition- allowing a buyer or
his assigns to take immediate occupancy. |

New On The Market

Sport fishermen
and Retirees – You’ve found a Home!
When people come to tour property with their wish-list in hand, I
sometimes have to smile. A couple of sport fishing buddies looking towards
retirement might say –
“Well, something with a couple of bedrooms where with a couple of
baths, and I guess an extra bedroom too- for guests or an ‘office’. Also a
good modern kitchen with room to really cook…. That’d be essential. If it
had a back entry for bringing the fish in for cleaning and maybe a large
utility room to store the ice chests and bait freezer…with a laundry
area…that would all be great…and a patio to BBQ the catch – with a view of
the bay of course...you know, a place to watch sunset over Golfito. Oh
yah, and a place to keep the boat on the trailer that’s not too far from
the launch ramp …with storage for the truck. That’ll save marina fees when
we’re not here. Actually, if it was in the same neighborhood or convenient
to the Marinas that’d be perfect….And please, let’s make sure it’s well
constructed – something on the newer side. You know; sound and secure
because we’ll only be here part time and would rather not deal with a
caretaker when gone or a lot of maintenance when here.. And can something
like that be found here in the Golfito town center…walking distance to the
restaurants markets and bars…but still private, of course???!!”
Well, if you’ve been to Golfito you know I’m smiling ear to ear right
now. That’s a TALL order to fill as a homes fitting that description are
few and far between”. But here we have it, folks! Newly
remodeled, fully furnished, 3 bedroom/2 bath home with air conditioning
throughout, a roof top patio and even a professional security system
attended by a local company. Home plus fully fenced adjacent lot currently
offers a secure motion sensored boat and vehicle storage area, but could
easily lend itself to a second home or a generous 2 story addition, taking
further advantage of the view potential of this site. Urban zoning. No
problem pulling building permits. A rare quiet cul-de-sac location in
Pueblo Civil of Golfito.
Asking $195,000.

This Playa Cacao property offers triple wide frontage of more than 350

pier leads to your door and a boat ramp to your large skiff storage & tackle
garage. Primary access is by boat only (5 minutes from Golfito). If you
don't feel like running your own skiff, taxi boats run around the clock.

lifestyle in mind. Two master bedroom suites are set off a gourmet

A NEW listing on the Golfito
Waterfront
Nearby to the “marina district”, this seller offers a southerly
facing home, looking out over the bay front, towards the Banana Bay and
new Fish Hook Marinas. It’s situated just off main street in a small
enclave of homes built after the departure of the Banana Company. The
parcel is positioned “in the back row” along the coast. With convenience
to the town center, this little neighborhood was not designed with cars
and vehicle storage in mind, but rather has footpaths throughout, taking
residents from the public road to the entries of their homes. The front
door about 10 meters down the paths from either of 2 directions. It has
almost 14 meters of frontage on the bay, giving a buyer access by boat as
well. The current owner pulls his launch right up to his seawall, tying
off and stepping up to his own waterfront porch. The home is ‘humble’ and
you’ll probably want to refurbish in time – but the current layout offers
4 bedrooms, 1 bath, living room, kitchen, and patio. The construction has
been partially upgraded recently and has steel and cement with a new
corrugated zinc roof with a balance of the project suspended as the owners
have decided to enter the market and allow the buyer to make the finish
decisions himself. 175 square meters of land outside of the coastal
maritime zone restrictions! Bargains on the waterfront don’t get any
better than this these days. Listed at
$125,000.

Ex-Pat's are ♥♥Loving
this
Quiet Countryside Neighborhood...
And here is your chance to get in below market value. Comparable sales
in the area indicate that this should be listed higher. Perhaps this is the
'fixer upper' that many of you tell me you are looking for?! It's got 4 small bedrooms, 2
baths, a service porch and newly tiled living-dining room and kitchen. The
front parking patio is tiled and enclosed with security bars. A
refurbishing was begun and suspended before the listing came in. A buyer
would need to finish the job - but should be able to pull this off
and still net a good under-market investment. The lot is 570 s.m. with
plenty of area for both a large addition and patio in back plus a detached workshop or boat
storage to the side. There are mature fruit trees and a bonus garden along the street in front of the home
that is yours to enjoy as a part of the neighborhoods new community green
zone project. The "neighbors" behind this home are of the 4 legged "moo-ing"
variety, with acres and acres of lovely
pastureland your backdrop is expansive green backed up to a mountain ridge of rainforest
wilderness.

Hillside
House 5 Minutes From Golfito
Ready to Move In! A cozy place with 2 bedrooms and 1 bath only 5
minutes to Golfito Bay front marinas and town, this rural area home sits
on 1 acre. You'll have lots of room for gardening and many friends have
commented that the garden trail leading to a westerly facing plateau is
actually a great place for a future little guest cabin. Head up the path
behind the home about 30 meters and there is a lookout over the bay where
the sunsets can be enjoyed and a great 'yoga spot' was placed by a former
owner. Take a look at the view you'll enjoy from up there!

Double Wide 1 Acre Lot Out
the back road from Golfito to Esperanza a hidden gem is tucked away....
This property has an old house on the high side that currently houses the
caretaker - but I see it as a "temporary structure" marking the place
where a new contemporary home will go. There is plenty of room for 2
houses. Laid out well I can envision an additional cottage for a caretaker
or guest. Verandas off the home could be oriented to one of two tranquillo
views: The forested creek-side and wilderness below to the east or off to
the vast pastures and countryside surrounds with the mountain ride in the
background. If you want to construct, this is a site that should not be
overlooked. Water and electricity already in at the street.

A
PEACEFUL REFUGE amongst the forest offers a cool climate at an
elevation of about 500 meters above Golfito – Heaven for a nature lover!
Almost 300 titled acres gives you several building sites and clear areas
for your tropical gardens. The remains of an old farmhouse stand marking
what would most likely be the prime site for the main home or lodge.
Private trails through the land immerse you in fabulous animal habitats,
wind past streams, under rainforest canopy and to a spectacular huge
waterfall….all within the boundaries of your land. 146 varieties of birds
are recorded in the surrounding area as well as a diverse list of other
native species including monkeys, morphos, anteaters, sloth and more!
This would be a wonderful site for an eco-lodge or private retreat and
guest cottages. The rural road up is maintained year round, making the
trip down the mountain only 15 minutes for provisioning at the bay front
shopping areas or heading out for a day of fun on the water.
There is plenty of fresh
water on site and cellular telephones as well as Direct TV services are a
snap to install. The electric energy would need to be by a self-sufficient
source – most likely a generator. |

Agua Buena de San Vito
is getting a great deal of attention this past couple of seasons from
those 'in the know' who buy their retreat and retirement real estate one
step ahead of the trends. It's being compared
Panama's popular Boquete and Volcan retirement communities (now crazily
overpriced?!) before their 'hype'. It's a cooler climate
than you get down in the lowlands and a gardeners dream for what you can
grow there. The parcels are generous with their origins in an agricultural
community that still thrives with coffee growers through dairy farmers.
This 4 bedroom home of wood and cement sits on 1/2 acre plus and belongs
to my friends caretaker. He couldn't be prouder of the care and love
he and his wife have put in to tending the place. Electricity, Water, Direct T.V., street lamps and phones.

Island Retreat Hide-a-Way
Golfito "Isla
Grande" on the Golfo Dulce
About 8 Acres on the
Maritime Zone
Just around the corner from Golfito... A gem of a "fixer upper" awaits.
The 2 little homes are looking out to the Osa Peninsula and beyond to the
Pacific. Enjoying a westerly direction, they are positioned to take
in fully the incredible Golfo Dulce sunsets! It could be the private
cove you've dreamed of. A
traditional palm
roof rancho home is 1400 square ft. with 2 bedrooms. A cement and 'Panacor' caretaker house with 1 bedroom was
added in 2003. Both constructions have fallen into some disrepair, but
would be EASY to buff back into shape. This unique location offers
unbeatable privacy and beauty with a soft sand beachfront and crashing
surf- primary jungle with wildlife abound. Fishing and river
exploration plus many other eco-activities
are just beyond your doorstep. A PERFECT "Honeymoon Retreat" comes to mind
every time I visit this cove designed for the voluntary castaway!
Solar or Generator will need to be installed
to meet power requirements. Water currently supplied by a
well and rain-catch. Accessible
only by boat.
