Description
This stunning Escaleras home is truly one of a kind. The house and its finishing were handcrafted out of local timber by a North American builder, giving the overall look of a luxurious coastal treehouse. Perched in the desirable mountain community of Escaleras, this home enjoys breath-taking jungle and ocean views as well as an orchestra of tropical birds to add to the tree-house atmosphere.
Located just 15 minutes from both Uvita and Dominical, this luxury home offers the stillness of mountain scenery with the convenience of living near two of the region’s hotspots. Both towns are popular with locals and tourists alike, which has increased the variety of amenities and selection of eateries within driving distance of this beautiful home. Escaleras is described by locals as a tropical oasis as well as being home to a small family of sloths as well as monkeys and toucans.
The home’s design focusses and accentuates the breath-taking Pacific Ocean views. The outdoors easily becomes a focal point of each room through the large glass walls and sliding doors. Each of the 3 bedroom suites face towards the ocean, allowing the sound of the waves to lull you to sleep each night as well as wake you with the possibility to check the surfing conditions right from your own bed. The ensuite bathroom faces towards the jungle for privacy, but the covered open-air design allows you to listen to the sweet jungle sounds as well. The curve of the infinity pool was positioned to make the most of the magical sunset views over the Pacific Ocean so make sure to invite all your friends to come enjoy the view all together.
Inside the home has an abundance of teak, acacia, and purple heart wood interiors. You will see it has been used to accent the dramatic vaulted ceilings, floors, and stairs, it also is featured in the kitchen cupboards, counters, and cabinets. Every wooden detail has been custom-made to make nature the statement piece in this modern home. The wood grain flows through the open living spaces, into the gourmet kitchen, living and dining rooms, leading you through telescoping doors to the pool patio. If you have children you will be delighted to see that in addition to the 3 bedrooms, there is a kids’ nook just off the living areas. Children will be ecstatic for sleepovers in their bunk-bed cubbies.
