Perched at approximately 2,000 feet elevation above Ciudad Cortes in the Southern Pacific Zone of Costa Rica, this exceptional turnkey property offers 4 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, and some of the most breathtaking panoramic ocean views in the country. From your hilltop sanctuary in Balsar, the vistas sweep across the coastline, down the Osa Peninsula all the way to Drake's Bay and Corcovado National Park, with lush jungle-covered mountains completing the picture. This is Pura Vida living at its finest. The fully furnished main residence (3 bed / 2.5 bath, 300 m2, built 2015) is completely move-in ready — just bring your clothes and groceries. Two master suites feature private ensuite bathrooms finished in beautiful stone and tilework, gorgeous local hardwood furnishings, spacious walk-in closets, and direct terrace access with ocean views. A third bedroom with its own separate entrance is perfect as a home office, guest room, or small private practice. The open-plan kitchen features stainless steel appliances, a recessed pantry, and a breakfast bar that flows naturally into the living and dining area. A screened patio off the main living space is ideal for evening dinners or morning coffee, and an outdoor spiral staircase leads to a sweeping rooftop deck with a full 360-degree perspective that has to be seen to be believed. The self-contained 1-bed/1-bath guesthouse with its own kitchen adds tremendous versatility — perfect for hosting family and friends in comfort, accommodating extended family, or generating short or long-term rental income. Outdoor living is exceptional: a stunning pool perfectly positioned to overlook the Pacific, a covered rancho, an expansive terraza, and a stainless steel BBQ make this an entertainer's dream. Solar panels provide both electricity and hot water at minimal cost. An insulated roof, ceiling fans, and A/C units in every room ensure comfort year-round, though the high-altitude elevation keeps temperatures naturally mild. A secure electronic gated entry provides peace of mind. Legal water concession, fiber internet, septic system, and a modest HOA of $1,200/year. As a neighbor to the eco-friendly Toucan Valley/Osa Mountain Village community, residents enjoy optional access to a community pool, fresh organic produce, a community restaurant and bar, and a nearby zipline. Just 20 minutes to shopping, a full hospital, and a domestic airport with quick flights to San Jose.
