Description

Just pack your suitcases, this is it!!

Casa Meraki is a Modern Tropical 3 bedroom, 3 bath home and Casita which checks all the boxes and so much more.

In the Coastal Ballena area, where the jungled covered mountains meet the sea, it is most desirable to have sweeping ocean and sunset views, a private mountain jungle setting, and easy access to the area’s most abundant amenities and most beautiful beaches.

This front ridge property is at an elevation of 420’ feet overlooking the world-renowned Marino National Park, aka The Whales Tail. It’s a short 2-minute drive to the heart of Uvita where you’ll find fabulous restaurant options (we are known as the culinary capital of Central America), a 3-minute drive to Urgent care, the grocery store, bi-weekly farmer’s markets, and a short drive to all 7 of the area’s most beautiful beaches. This convenience not only lets you do multiple errands and outings each day, but lowers any wear and tear to your vehicle, so common with other properties. Enjoy the market in the morning, come home and then visit the beach for swimming, walking, surfing, come home again, rest, and still enjoy an evening out on the town with fine dining and finish the day off by taking in some of the fantastic local musical talent.

The house was constructed in 2021 by a premiere builder known for building beautiful and structurally sound properties, with a higher than standard attention to earthquake protocols. This reassurance in structural integrity allows one to focus on the delights, comfort and functionality of this Frank Lloyd Wright inspired design. Marvel in the effortless flow of inside outside living, celebrating nature through each carefully designed space. Whether it’s the attention to protected covered area from the carport to the house or the ease of flow when cooking with the large walk-in pantry and continuous one level living throughout the main areas of the home.

This attention to ease and flow also incorporates passive cooling in both structures. Inside the Main House you’ll find tall ceilings with venting and dual (front and back) 13’ long accordion door systems opening toward the ocean, outdoor dining and large infinity pool, and mirrored behind opening toward the garden, jungle and mountain setting. These beautiful custom-made door and window systems are constructed with the highest grade Extralum which are found throughout both the main house and casita. To help bring the outside in, most of the doors and windows are 8’ tall. But that’s not all. The functionality of this home allows you to enjoy outside living in all weather conditions. There is nothing more spectacular than viewing an intense lightning storm splintering across the Pacific Ocean followed by heavy intense rains while hosting an outside dinner party. The 17’ deep overhang extends the full length of the house allowing you to fully enjoy outdoor living in all its magnificent glory.

So much attention focuses on the large ocean views that one often overlooks the intimate garden and patio out back. With the ocean still in view, one can take in the illuminated water-rock-wall feature and reflective pool and be soothed by the light sound of falling water. The reclining Buddha centered on the rock wall reminds us of how necessary it is to rejoice in relaxation. Sit quietly and watch as the hummingbirds and butterflies share in this intimate garden space while the majestic mountain and jungle shelter your presence. Just more items to check in this fabulous property. What could make this fabulous property any better?? It’s completely turn-key down to the salad plates, Vitamix blender, ‘instant pot’ and silverware, to beach towels, fine linens and chairs.
