4-Bed Tree-Integrated Home in Gensler-Designed Beachfront Community

Description

Tree-Hugging Homes in Avellanas represents a groundbreaking approach to residential development in Costa Rica. This 80-home community, designed by the renowned international architecture firm Gensler, nestles into the heart of a secondary forest just minutes on foot from the pristine Avellanas Beach. Each home is intentionally designed and positioned to integrate with—rather than displace—the existing natural landscape, preserving the free movement of wildlife including monkeys, armadillos, and countless bird species. The 4-bedroom model features approximately 408 m² (4,390 ft²) of thoughtfully planned living space, complete with a private pool and terrace. The modular construction allows for customization while maintaining the community's ecological integrity. Homes range from 3 to 5 bedrooms and 334 m² to 487 m², with lot sizes varying from 1/8 to over 1/2 acre, ensuring options for different lifestyles and budgets. The development prioritizes both luxury living and environmental responsibility. Water resources are meticulously protected, trees are carefully maintained and incorporated into home design, and the entire community is built on principles of sustainability and wildlife preservation. A dedicated team has secured all necessary permits, with infrastructure, common areas, and amenities scheduled to be complete by Q1 2025. Community amenities are extensive and designed to foster connection—both with nature and with neighbors. The recreational facilities include a fully equipped gym, tennis court, padel court, volleyball court, yoga deck, and outdoor cinema. Social spaces comprise a clubhouse, lounge areas, and a social events area. For families, there is a skate park, kids' play area, dog park, and multiple gazebo-and-BBQ areas. Nature enthusiasts will appreciate the firepit, reading room, dedicated trail to the beach, and observation deck offering ocean and mountain views. For the working professional, a coworking area supports remote work in a serene setting. The project is committed to educational and environmental impact. Every detail has been carefully curated to foster a deep connection with nature while supporting local education and conservation programs. Financing is available through a reputable local bank, with terms up to 20 years, a loan-to-value of 65%, and a maximum loan amount of $1.5 million. The purchase process is straightforward: a $5,000 reservation fee secures your choice of lot and home plan, followed by land-value payment within 90 days of contract signature. House construction payments are split into four equal installments (25% each) aligned with project milestones: project start, structure completion, house completion, and key handover. Avellanas offers the ideal balance of proximity to the vibrant beach culture of the Guanacaste province while maintaining the tranquility of a nature-focused community. This is an extraordinary opportunity to own a contemporary, sustainably designed home in one of Costa Rica's most thoughtfully conceived residential developments.
