Ready-to-build Ocean View Land with Comfortable Container Home

Perfect Culiacan Escape Near Ostional

On the sought- after ridge above Ostional and accessed by the beautiful Culiacan ridge road is this wonderful double lot with massive ocean and jungle views. Lovingly named “Salty Palmtree”, this is a home for those who want to escape the tourists and soak up the deeper joys of being in the Guanacaste back country. 

Lot 1 (7,119 m2) offers a spectacular ocean view terrace perfect for a dream home. The views take in the ocean, forest, sunsets and teak plantations below. It also has two wonderful container homes with one of the most well-thought-out floorplans we’ve seen: 

The container home: Not only is this container home livable, it’s also stylish and romantic. To enter, you must approach through a covered entryway with a raised-bed herb garden and outdoor shower hidden behind a small tree full of blooms. The outdoor kitchen has a dining area for four people as well as a breakfast bar with a couple stools.  The kitchen is spacious and well organized with full-sized fridge, water filtration, oven, and 4-burner gas range. It also boasts polished concrete countertops with a tiled backsplash, open shelving made of teak wood, and rattan shades for windy days. Finally, there’s a lounging area off the kitchen with sofa, easy chair and two fans. Internet is provided by Starlink. Clearly this container home was built for comfort!

When you live in containers, everything has a place, and this container home is tight as a ship. The principal container fits the main bedroom and office. The space is divided by shelves. There is AC, a queen bed, sofa and desk. One entire end of the room is a floor-to-ceiling sliding door- you can walk through onto a sweet Juliet balcony with a hammock that looks east towards the sunrise!

The second structure- a solid build of metal and concrete- has a full bathroom with hot water shower and amazing wall-to-wall windows on three sides allowing for lots of natural light. The space is shared with a built-in washer and dryer along with storage space. The other half of this container is where you can find the second bedroom with a queen bed. There’s also a tidy broom closet and exterior board storage. With steel construction, polished concrete floors, and teak ceiling and details, this home has a modern flair and ais also built to last. 

Finally, there’s a shed on the property for your tools, equipment or moto, with a shaded work area large enough to park a car. 

Lot 2 (3,982 m2):  The adjacent “Lot 2” has been left wild. It is partly covered in mature plantation teak trees, some of which were harvested to build the shed and home. Being elevated and sloped towards the west, this land catches the breezes off the jungle floor and from the ocean one mile away. This extra lot can be used for anything- a privacy buffer to the main property, space for a second or third home for your family compound, a land bank, or re-sold for cash. There is a total of 114 meters of public road frontage. 

The property gives easy access to Ostional surf (a 7-minute drive) as well as Guiones beach restaurants and amenities (20 minutes). Both lots, home, and shed are all included in the price and being sold together.
