About this property
Located in the prestigious Costa Verde Estates, this four-bedroom residence, known as ¡Que Brava!, is a modern architectural creation designed by the acclaimed architect Martin Wells. Elevated above the jungle canopy, it offers breathtaking views of the Pacific Ocean, Marino Ballena’s Whale Tail, and lush rainforest ridgelines, all framed by stunning sunsets throughout the year. Upon entering, a dramatic steel pivot door introduces the main level, characterized by eleven-foot ceilings and expansive floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors that enhance the open-plan layout of the Dekton-clad kitchen, dining, and living areas. These spaces seamlessly connect to the saltwater infinity-edged pool, which features Balinese Sukabumi tile and is surrounded by lava stone, creating a sculptural flow into the horizon. The outdoor culinary experience is elevated with a stainless-steel Viking kitchen and dining area. An adjacent outdoor spa retreat, complete with a rain shower and cantilevered Balinese stone tub, provides a private sanctuary immersed in nature. The property features winding stone paths that lead through tropical fruit and floral gardens, blurring the lines between the architecture and the landscape. Ascending to the second level reveals four tranquil bedrooms, each offering stunning views. The primary suite boasts a double rain shower encased in lava stone, a private patio, and a spacious walk-in closet. A junior primary suite with an ensuite bath opens to a large travertine-covered terrace overlooking the Whale Tail. Two additional guest rooms share a bath, ensuring comfort and privacy for all. Sustainability is a key aspect of this estate, which includes solar panels with a new Sol-Ark 15kW inverter and battery backup, solar-heated domestic hot water, and a comprehensive five-stage water filtration system. Fiber-optic internet provides reliable connectivity, while a secure 24-hour gated entry with a staffed guardhouse and full-time property management ensures peace of mind. The estate also features a self-sustaining composting system, a permeable paver driveway, a covered carport, and a bodega for practical needs. Situated just minutes from Dominical and Uvita, this property offers a secluded retreat without sacrificing accessibility. Residents of Costa Verde Estates benefit from a helipad for private transfers and emergency medical use, along with access to Vista Pacifica Park.
