Property overview

A nearly 8-acre estate inside one of the more exclusive gated communities on the southern Pacific coast. The property combines jungle scenery, on-site waterfalls, real privacy, and full panoramic ocean views, positioning it strongly within the Dominical real estate segment and the elevated Dominical coastal lifestyle it represents.

The original owners walked the land extensively before choosing this specific building site, and the reasoning is visible immediately: strong elevation, sweeping Pacific views, and a genuine sense of seclusion from any neighboring structure. The Mediterranean-style villa opens with a two-story foyer under a domed fresco ceiling, a circular iron staircase, and rare hardwood flooring. The staircase leads to the entire upper level, which is dedicated to the primary suite.

From the suite's wrap-around balcony, the ocean views match the main level, and the elevation puts you eye-level with monkeys traveling through the adjacent conservation area and toucans calling from the surrounding treetops. The en-suite includes hand-laid mosaics, a double vanity, an antique claw-foot tub, and an outdoor shower. A window-lit walk-in closet was built out with custom teak cabinetry.

The main level is open and generously sized. The living area centers on a circular conversation sofa and pairs with a secondary sitting room or office. Much of the handcrafted furniture is included in the sale, so a new owner can occupy the home without immediate purchases. The kitchen carries imported tile, extensive counter space, a large island, and a peninsula that adds storage. The adjacent dining room holds a live-edge table framed by floor-to-ceiling windows facing the pool, gardens, and Pacific.

Two guest suites sit on opposite wings of the home, each with teak cabinetry and private patios oriented to ocean and jungle views. Outside, the property carries a private pool, a covered rancho with an outdoor kitchen and built-in gas grill, and a waterfall fed by a natural spring on the parcel.

Systems are built for long-term reliability. Two separate security systems (indoor and outdoor perimeter cameras) provide full coverage. A 20 kW Kohler whole-house generator with automatic transfer keeps the property operational during outages. An on-site caretaker with a private residence supports daily maintenance and operational continuity. Additional structures include a pump house, a large storage building, and a three-car garage with an electric vehicle charging station.

An accessible, developable building pad with expansive ocean views sits just above the main house, giving future owners real expansion capacity without additional land acquisition.
