Ninety seconds to the sand, birdsong in the gardens, and only three neighbors. Casa Tucán is the kind of tropical hideaway people picture when they dream about Costa Rica. Casa Tucán is the end unit in Stef Surf, an intimate community of just four condominiums in Playa Potrero, and it enjoys one of the most private settings in the complex. Mature tropical vegetation and lush gardens wrap around this charming two-story home, built in 2008. Playa Potrero’s beach is just a 1.5-minute walk away. Step inside and the open living, dining and kitchen area is bright and welcoming, filled with natural light. Large windows and sliding glass doors connect you to the greenery outside. The kitchen is well-equipped, with ample storage and workspace for everyday cooking or having friends over. The main level also has a laundry area, a guest powder room, and direct access to several covered outdoor living spaces, all with ceiling fans. Morning coffee, outdoor dinners or an afternoon with a good book: there’s a spot for each. Upstairs, the primary suite is a peaceful retreat. Floor-to-ceiling windows look out over the gardens, and it has generous closet space and its own en-suite bath. The second bedroom has easy access to a full bathroom, so guests get their own space. A Murphy bed adds extra sleeping room when you need it, a smart bonus for hosting or for vacation rentals. In all, the home has 1,496 square feet with 2 bedrooms, 2 full baths and a half bath. Nature is part of daily life here. Private balconies and outdoor sitting areas are surrounded by vibrant tropical foliage, and the sound of birds is your soundtrack. Owners share a resort-style pool with a jacuzzi, landscaped grounds, shaded gathering areas and secure parking, all split among just four homes. Restaurants, cafés, shops, grocery stores and everyday services are within easy walking distance. The Flamingo Marina, more beaches, fishing and sailing are all just minutes away, and Liberia International Airport is about an hour’s drive. Private, charming and steps from the beach, Casa Tucán is an authentic slice of Costa Rica’s Gold Coast, with rental flexibility built in. Contact us today to schedule a showing.
