No roughing it here!

A Private Waterfront Home on
Golfito's Cacao Beach front

Surrounded by the rainforest reserve along the coast of Golfito Bay.... This Playa Cacao property offers triple wide frontage of more than 350 feet at the shore. It's picturesque location offers a mooring in front in the calm bay making anchoring of your sport fisher out front a snap. A small private pier leads to your door and a boat ramp to your large skiff storage & tackle garage. Primary access is by boat only (5 minutes from Golfito). If you don't feel like running your own skiff, taxi boats run around the clock. This place was built by a Canadian ex-pat with a carefree fisherman's lifestyle in mind.  Two master bedroom suites are set off a gourmet sized kitchen.  A covered veranda with tile and ceiling fans overlooks the bay front with a gracious  living-dining area for entertaining tropical style. It makes a wonderful retirement or second home and most recently has been offered as a vacation rental with success. Designed to lock up tight with extra security features, this is one of the few homes where you can turn the key and go without the need for a caretaker on the premesis. This one really could be your dream home!  

Asking $225,000

Ex-Pat's are ♥♥Loving this
Quiet Countryside Neighborhood...
And here is your chance to get in below market value. Comparable sales in the area indicate that  this should be listed higher. Perhaps this is the 'fixer upper' that many of you tell me you are looking for?!  It's got 4 small bedrooms, 2 baths, a service porch and newly tiled living-dining room and kitchen. The front parking patio is tiled and enclosed with security bars. A refurbishing was begun and suspended before the listing came in. A buyer would need to finish the job - but should be able to pull this off and still net a good under-market investment. The lot is 570 s.m. with plenty of area for both a large addition and patio in back plus a detached workshop or boat storage to the side. There are mature fruit trees and a bonus garden along the street in front of the home that is yours to enjoy as a part of the neighborhoods new community green zone project. The "neighbors" behind this home are of the 4 legged "moo-ing" variety, with acres and acres of lovely pastureland your backdrop is expansive green backed up to a mountain ridge of rainforest wilderness.

Double Wide 1 Acre Lot

Out the back road from Golfito to Esperanza a hidden gem is tucked away.... This property has an old house on the high side that currently houses the caretaker - but I see it as a "temporary structure" marking the place where a new contemporary home will go. There is plenty of room for 2 houses. Laid out well I can envision an additional cottage for a caretaker or guest. Verandas off the home could be oriented to one of two tranquillo views: The forested creek-side and wilderness below to the east or off to the vast pastures and countryside surrounds with the mountain ride in the background. If you want to construct, this is a site that should not be overlooked. Water and electricity already in at the street.

Agua Buena de San Vito
 is getting a great deal of attention this past couple of seasons from those 'in the know' who buy their retreat and retirement real estate one step ahead of the trends.  It's being compared Panama's popular Boquete and Volcan retirement communities (now crazily overpriced?!) before their 'hype'.  It's a cooler climate than you get down in the lowlands and a gardeners dream for what you can grow there. The parcels are generous with their origins in an agricultural community that still thrives with coffee growers through dairy farmers. This 4 bedroom home of wood and cement sits on 1/2 acre plus and belongs to my friends caretaker.  He couldn't be prouder of the care and love he and his wife have put in to tending the place. Electricity, Water, Direct T.V., street lamps and phones.

 Island Retreat Hide-a-Way
Golfito "Isla Grande" on the Golfo Dulce
About 8 Acres on the Maritime Zone
    Just around the corner from Golfito... A gem of a "fixer upper" awaits. The 2 little homes are looking out to the Osa Peninsula and beyond to the Pacific.  Enjoying a westerly direction, they are positioned to take in fully the incredible Golfo Dulce sunsets!  It could be the private cove you've dreamed of. A traditional palm roof rancho home is 1400 square ft. with 2 bedrooms.  A cement and 'Panacor' caretaker house with 1 bedroom was added in 2003. Both constructions have fallen into some disrepair, but would be EASY to buff back into shape. This unique location offers unbeatable privacy and beauty with a soft sand beachfront and crashing surf- primary jungle with wildlife abound.  Fishing and river exploration plus many other eco-activities are just beyond your doorstep. A PERFECT "Honeymoon Retreat" comes to mind every time I visit this cove designed for the voluntary castaway!   Solar or Generator will need to be installed to meet power requirements.  Water currently supplied by a well and rain-catch.  Accessible only by boat.  Caretaker on the property.

                        OUR "PET PROJECT"

Land Sea Services is proud of advances made in Golfito to further the humane treatment of dogs and cats. Community groups such as ZAPPA and McKee are reaching out to give low and no-cost care to 'under privileged' and street critters, greatly reducing the population of homeless animals in our area. Your contributions make possible the Low Cost and Free Clinics being sponsored by area volunteers and veterinarians. Each contribution of $10.00 sponsors a dog or cat that wouldn't otherwise be able to receive vaccinations and spaying - and wouldn't have been considered adoptable! Your  generous contribution of $200.00 will sponsor a neighborhood clinic with free services to 20 needy animals.  That's a potential reduction of over 100 unwanted births in a neighborhood in the first year alone.  Do the math?! It's a loving and needed investment. Please consider supporting our "pet project" by bringing a donation to our office when you visit Golfito. Receipts will be given along with our THANKS!  Volunteers for Clinic Days are always welcome.
