Description from owner

Description

Just 350 meters from the beach, at the top of a up hill going unpaved driveway, perched on the edge of a flat plateau above the sleepy fishing village of Manzanillo de Cobano. This peaceful little house is a true getaway. Tranquil, quiet and private, with amazing panoramic views of the ocean and enchanting hills of the Nicoya Peninsula, it is one of most peaceful and quiet spots in the area, with only the sounds of the waves in the distance and the birds in the morning.

The minimalist house was designed and built by the owner in beautiful sustainably-harvested teak, and is completely solar powered and has collected rain water and a welt. The main room has 3 walls of sliding glass doors, which make for a truly indoor-outdoor living experience. But there are courtens to close all up if U want totally privecy.

There is a small bathroom with a shower off the main room, and a spacious teak deck overlooking the ocean with chairs for enjoying the view. A spiral staircase leads up to a small sleeping loft, with a comfortable full-sized mattress on a low platform. The open kitchen is on the front patio, and includes a gas stovetop, a small fridge, and a table. There is a simple Costa-Rica style washing machine. There is wi-fi py the owners internet connection which can be used. Also there is excellent cell phone reception with the local company Kolbi, so if you have an unlocked smart-phone, you can buy a SIM card and prepaid credit from the ICE office in the nearby town of Cobano and tether your laptop to your phone for basic internet service. It is not fast enough for videos, but definitely sufficient for email and non-data heavy applications.

The house is safe and tranquil. Because of the distance from the main road "Calle Santiago", there is none of the dust or traffic noise that is a constant presence in most of the area. The property is a perfectly peaceful retreat when you really want to get away from the busy energy of Santa Teresa or elsewhere.

There is no air conditioning, city-water, phone line, or grid electricity, and an abundance of beauty, peace, privacy, sunshine, and views.
