Villa for Sale / Rent -
Casa de Las Palmas
Ideal for Development
Casa de Las Palmas is a hilltop residence overlooking the Pacific
Ocean and lies just outside the picturesque village of Samara.
With a breathtaking panoramic indestructible view from the hill,
overlooking both Samara and Buena Vista, this unique two level luxury home
with 3 bedrooms and an apartment/guest house is perfect. It offers all this in
a very private atmosphere with landscaped gardens.
The property because of its location and terrain is ideally suited for
development. Cascading condominiums and/or guest cottages in front and/or
apartments behind the main house would be possible for great income potential.
The principal residence could be utilized as a private home or as a Bed and
Breakfast.
The completely walled gardens would provide security for all guests. Abundant
water supply, electricity to the back of the property and the imminently
available high speed internet indeed make it a developer’s dream. Ample room
for parking and pool without disturbing the view of the principal home.
It is only a 3-minute scenic drive to either the village shops or its
many miles of white sand beach, with its graceful coconut palms and
protective coral reef.
Samara, long prized by Costa Rica's native population for its idyllic
beauty and magnificent turquoise bay, now is a favorite destination of
discriminating North American and European visitors. Many of these
visitors have come to stay and call Samara their home.
The village is ringed by verdant mountains filled with tropical birds,
monkeys, frisky red squirrels, and other fascinating wildlife. Small
colorful fishing boats sail out to sea and friendly Indian ponies
glide home along the beach at sunset.

stops your dogs from going out! In the back of the lot there is a
large dog house with a roof. There is a walled in area in the back
that could be used as a stable for horses or to grow vegetables and
fruit trees.

ocean - truly unforgettable moments. Squirrels, monkeys, parrots,
humming birds,
birds of paradise, "Pink birds " and many other creatures
will animate your mornings. The concert of the birds is the everyday
soundtrack together with the comforts offered by the house will
make pleasant the life of those that will come and live here.
