Santa Cruz
Description
Welcome to an exceptional opportunity in Avellanas, a visionary 80-home community designed by the renowned architecture firm Gensler. This 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom home is part of a masterfully planned development that harmonizes modern living with the natural beauty of Costa Rica's secondary forest. **The Property** Your home is thoughtfully positioned to maximize integration with the surrounding landscape. At approximately 368m² (3,962 ft²), it features a private pool, expansive terrace, and architectural design tailored to preserve and enhance the existing forest canopy. Every residence is unique, built around existing trees to ensure wildlife corridors remain open for monkeys, armadillos, and other forest inhabitants. **Location and Lifestyle** Situated in Avellanas, this community is just a short walk to the beach via dedicated trails. The location offers the perfect balance: a tranquil forest setting with convenient beach access and the vibrant energy of the nearby town. The setting is ideal for those seeking a nature-connected lifestyle without sacrificing modern convenience. **Community Amenities** The project features an impressive array of amenities designed to foster connection and community. Recreation options include a gym, tennis court, padel court, volleyball court, yoga deck, and outdoor cinema. Family-friendly features encompass a kids' play area, dog park, skate park, and coworking area. Social gathering spaces include multiple gazebos with BBQ facilities, a clubhouse, lounge areas, and a firepit. A reading room and observation deck with ocean and mountain views provide peaceful retreats, while a trail system connects residents to the beach and exploration opportunities throughout the forest. **Sustainability and Conservation** The development is committed to environmental stewardship. Water resources are carefully managed and protected. The natural landscape is preserved at every turn, with mature trees maintained and wildlife movement prioritized. The community actively supports local education and conservation programs, creating a development that truly gives back. **Project Status and Financing** All necessary permits have been secured, and infrastructure and common areas are scheduled for completion in Q1 2025. Flexible financing is available through a renowned local bank, offering up to 20 years at 65% loan-to-value with a maximum financing of $1.5 million. **Purchase Process** The straightforward purchase path begins with a $5,000 reservation. Land value is due within 90 days of contract signature.
