Overview
Description
Step back in time, as this home is full of history. It was built in the 1960s and has been through a number of quality re-models. The home was built for United Fruit Company visiting managers and business associates to use as temporary housing and entertainment. Although it is designed as a large private estate, this 5-bedroom, 4-bathroom home could certainly be used as a bed and breakfast, AirBnB rental or even as a sport fishing lodge, as it has been in the past.
There is a large kitchen, a large living room, and a covered porch with skylights to enjoy afternoon tea by the pool. The property is a corner lot that surrounds the local ICE electric company. The University of Costa Rica is across the street, and the famed Casa Roland Hotel and Resort is directly next door.
Single-story living makes this gated property desirable for retirees interested in easy living close to everything Golfito has to offer. Currently, a full-time caretaker is living on site in the staff quarters, which include a bedroom, kitchen, living room and bath at the far end of the property. There is a large electric gate and a very private wooden garden on this double lot. This home even has a pre-Columbian mystery sphere that is registered with the Costa Rican Historical Society. This commercially zoned property is priced to sell at $450,000 and has not been on the market for long.
