Property Description: Enjoy one the most exclusive properties of Costa Rica! This 8 acre fully titled estate is located in Punta Uva on a private hilltop overlooking the Caribbean Sea and the lush rain forest just 250 yards from the beach. El Mariposario includes a spacious main residence, 2 guest houses and a caretaker's residence - each with its own privacy and seclusion. The property boasts an abundance of wildlife and vegetation, with almost daily visits from several families of monkeys, and many nesting birds including toucans and parrots. Perhaps one of the most unique features at El Mariposario is the seclusion and privacy offered by the topography and location of the land. The main residence was "built to last" over 12 years ago by a renowned Costa Rican architect, using concrete, steel, glass and an abundance or rare tropical hardwoods. The solid construction is impermeable to the local environment and potential pests. The interiors are protected by glass windows around the entire home. On the third floor is a game/exercise room with a 360 degree view of the surrounding rain forest. The grounds offer over 3 acres of flat land, where there are over 30 types of mature fruit trees and gorgeously designed tropical gardens with plenty of rare plants. Main Residence The main house, built in 1990, has approximately 550 Sq M of interior living space, divided between 3 floors. From anywhere in the house are spectacular open views of the ocean and the surrounding virgin rain forest. The house has 3 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. Each bathroom has its unique personality with beautiful mosaic tile work. The staircase going from the ground floor to the second floor is also decorated with mosaic tile work. The house is sold fully furnished and equipped with washer/dryer, 2 satellite TV antennas, televisions, furniture, etc. The kitchen is a large open space with working refrigerator, electric stove, chest freezer, and and assortment of appliances. The counters and shelves are decorated with exotic Mediterranean tiles. The main residence is ideal for entertaining friends and/or clients with its large luxurious open spaces. Electricity is brought into the houses via underground cabling. The property enjoys some of the cleanest water in the region with its 37 meter deep water well and a 30 thousand liter water storage tank.
