A 148-acre private estate in Nosara with four residences

The sweep of mountains that rise beyond this Nosara estate frames a landscape of rare proportions: 148 acres of privately held terrain where the Pacific reaches inland and the jungle remains supremely intact. A terracotta composition of volumes dominates the highest point, its warm ochre walls and tile roofing anchored against that vast horizon, the turquoise geometry of its pools catching light like sapphires set in earth.

Four residences occupy the property, each positioned to claim distinct vistas and their own architectural presence. The primary structure curves generously to enfold outdoor living spaces, its covered loggias softened by flowering bougainvillea in shades of crimson. Pools of crystalline turquoise pierce the manicured grounds, their mineral clarity amplified by the surrounding forest; a secondary pavilion echoes this approach with its own lap pool and a rotunda crowned by red tile, a focal point that commands the morning light.

The estate embeds itself thoughtfully into its ecosystem. Palm trees stand as natural sentinels, while wooden decking traces pathways between structures, the timber worn to the colour of honey. The jungle rises immediately beyond the cultivated zones, darkening from amber to deep forest green in the gentle decline of elevation.

Beyond the four completed residences, five platforms remain prepared for future development, offering scope for a private compound of considerable complexity. This is land that permits both substantial inhabitation and profound retreat, a duality that defines the most sought estates in Central America.
