The property consists of 1.57 hectares (3.9 acres) on the Pacific slope of the Tilarán mountains, less than a kilometer from the continental divide and the northeast border of the province of Puntarenas.
The property is framed by a mountain stream (Quebrada Santamaría) with 2 waterfalls and a forested hillside to the east, a gravel agricultural easement (servumbre agricola) to the west, and a magnificent view of the Gulf of Nicoya to the southwest. A link to a video of the property can be found below.

The first floor has a great room with a wood stove and a large kitchen with an island, pantry, dishwasher, and hood over the stove. A small dining room adjoins the kitchen and faces the view of the gulf.
The spacious master bedroom has a dressing room, bathroom with bath and shower, a small private terrace and magnificent views of the forest and gardens through large windows. A second bedroom opens to the hall and adjoins the second bathroom with a shower. It also has a small deck that is surrounded by gardens. Both first floor bedrooms have sliding glass doors that open onto small individual covered terraces. There is an open office area at the top of the stairs with a spectacular view of the Gulf of Nicoya.
