6 Bedroom Luxury Home for Sale, Escaleras, Dominical, Costa Rica

A luxury ocean view estate in the mountains of Escaleras, perched 800 feet above the Pacific Ocean near Dominical, Puntarenas. This estate commands 180-degree ocean views stretching more than 70 miles along Costa Rica’s Southern Pacific coast, surrounded by pristine rainforest – perfect whether you’re looking for a full-time residence, a vacation home, or a property to rent out when you’re away.

Set on 2.5 acres (108,900 square feet) with three additional building sites included, the estate offers approximately 6,760 square feet (628 square meters) of living space, including 6 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.

Every room in the home, along with the infinity-edge pool and oversized jacuzzi, takes in the ocean views and sunsets.

The home is built with exotic hardwoods and natural stone. A gated entrance with a private guardhouse and caretaker’s quarters leads along a winding driveway through mature tropical gardens to the main residence, where soaring vaulted ceilings with exposed wood beams and open-concept living spaces showcase a blend of exotic hardwoods, natural stone and custom tile work. The recently renovated chef’s kitchen features premium appliances, custom cabinetry, an oversized breakfast bar and a walk-in pantry, with disappearing glass doors opening onto the pool terrace.
