Description
Casa Prieta in Pacific Heights is a 5-bedroom, 4.5-bathroom marvel with stunning ocean views in a hillside neighborhood above Playa Potrero. The golden sunset, mountain sunrise, mature gardens, and exceptional views make this a place of unparalleled beauty.
Of the five bedrooms, three have king beds and two feature a pair of twin beds that can be converted into king-sized beds. Four of them have en-suite bathrooms with double sinks and other modern finishes. The master bedroom is a beautiful suite with floor-to-ceiling glass facing the ocean and a private ocean-view shower.
The spacious kitchen features a Corian island, sleek appliances, a cooktop, and a breakfast bar. A fridge-freezer with filtered water and an ice dispenser is located in a separate alcove next to the pantry. The dining table, with a slate-look design and powder-coated aluminum, seats six.
All rooms have spectacular ocean views. Stepping outside, you'll find tiled terraces with large cantilevered teak decks and contemporary outdoor furniture. The upper balconies have tiled floors, sun loungers, and a high-top table with chairs.
The private infinity pool, with ocean views, is equipped with an eight-person lounge set, table and chairs, a cantilevered sunshade, and an outdoor shower.
The home includes a washer, dryer, water softener, and purification system, all located in a separate utility room.
A 4-wheel-drive vehicle is recommended for access, especially during the rainy season.
Pacific Heights is an exclusive neighborhood in the hills above Potrero, a town we consider one of the best places to visit in Costa Rica. Located between Las Catalinas and Flamingo, Potrero (“pasture”) is an authentically Tico town that is also home to many expatriates.
On the southern outskirts of Potrero, Surfside is a charming town with a two-block-long main street filled with restaurants, bars, shops, souvenirs, tour agencies, and even a sailing center.
Drive a few minutes south to visit Flamingo and its brand-new world-class marina, brimming with yachts and shops. Spend a day deep-sea fishing, scuba diving, or enjoy a sunset cruise on a catamaran with snorkeling.
