2 Beds 164 Sq.M.
This delightful and lively 2-bedroom apartment, with views of a charming plaza from its two terraces and bathed in natural light through the home's 10 sets of French Doors, seamlessly combines comfort and nature.
Approaching the apartment, you stroll through the picturesque Plaza Carlota, lined with trees, where the magnificent fountain delights with its sight and sound. Ascending six steps, the front door opens to a cheerful entry with a private shower, perfect for rinsing off beach sand or refreshing after a day on the trails.
The open living area features a spacious white micro-concrete island with six cozy bar stools, surrounded by a fully equipped kitchen boasting custom wood cabinets and stainless-steel appliances—a hub of welcoming activity. Unlocking three sets of French Doors reveals a private terrace stretching the length of the home, complete with a splash pool, lounge chairs, BBQ grill, and a beautifully finished teak cabaret table with four high-top chairs. This outdoor haven, framed by a charming garden with mature almond trees, offers a refreshing spot for breakfast, relaxation, a dip, a party, or a scenic view of the town. As a bonus, an all-organic, non-toxic misting system keeps pesky mosquitoes at bay.
Back indoors, to the right of the kitchen, a cozy living area invites you to unwind on a comfortable sofa or chair, or flip on the flat-screen TV. Three French Doors open onto the dining terrace, featuring a live-edge Guanacaste wood table with six chairs. A pleasant surprise awaits, as the living area can be transformed into a private ensuite third bedroom by converting the sofa into a queen-size bed, complete with a half-bath and the shower in the entry, separated by bi-fold doors from the bedroom area.
Down the hall, the two spacious bedrooms, each with two sets of French doors opening onto the pool terrace, offer a serene retreat. The master bedroom features a king bed, built-in desk with cabinets and drawers, and an ensuite bathroom. The guest bedroom, also equipped with a desk, can be configured as a king bed or two twins, with a bathroom directly across the hall.
