Nestled within the lush, private surroundings of Bosque Verde Residential, Casa Mariposa is a beautifully designed tropical home that captures the essence of the Nosara lifestyle—peaceful, private, surrounded by nature, and designed for effortless indoor-outdoor living. The property also enjoys partial ocean views, adding an exceptional element to its tranquil natural setting.

Built with solid concrete construction, the home features an open and light-filled floor plan that embraces the surrounding tropical landscape. Large glass doors open the main living spaces directly onto the gardens and pool terrace, creating a seamless transition between the interior and the outdoors.

At the heart of the home is a spacious kitchen equipped with modern appliances and designed to flow naturally into the living and TV areas. The open layout makes the home equally well suited to relaxed everyday living or entertaining family and friends.

The outdoor spaces are where Casa Mariposa truly comes alive. A beautiful swimming pool is surrounded by mature gardens and lush greenery, creating a private tropical oasis. An outdoor dining area sits conveniently beside the pool, offering an inviting setting for alfresco meals, gatherings, and long afternoons enjoying the surrounding jungle.

The three bedrooms are thoughtfully positioned around the pool and garden area, with each bedroom offering its own private access to the garden. This arrangement provides a wonderful sense of privacy while maintaining a strong connection to the outdoors.

The property includes three bedrooms, one full bathroom, two half bathrooms, and an outdoor shower. Covered parking is provided for two vehicles, with additional parking available along the lower driveway.

Set away from the main road within Bosque Verde Reserve, Casa Mariposa enjoys a quiet and private location surrounded by mature tropical vegetation. Bosque Verde is a gated residential community valued for its peaceful atmosphere, security, and natural setting, while remaining conveniently close to the beaches, restaurants, shops, and services that make Nosara one of Costa Rica’s most desirable coastal communities.

Casa Mariposa presents a rare opportunity to own a well-constructed tropical home in a private natural setting, with beautiful gardens, a pool, partial ocean views, and the space and privacy to fully embrace the Nosara lifestyle.

Designed as a sophisticated retreat rather than simply a residence, the single-story home is equally focused on architectural beauty and long-term livability. Every detail has been considered for effortless movement and comfort, from its step-free circulation and wide doorways to accessible bathrooms, covered arrival, and seamless connections between the interior, patios, pool deck, and outdoor living spaces. The result is a home designed to be enjoyed for years to come, including by multigenerational households and those looking to age in place.

The main living spaces open toward an extraordinary panorama of the Pacific, culminating in an approximately 40-foot by 14-foot infinity-edge lap pool. A center lap line, entry stairs, and soaking bench transform the pool into both a striking architectural feature and a place for everyday wellness. The surrounding outdoor spaces are designed for long afternoons and evenings, with a covered patio, teak loungers, outdoor kitchenette, Blackstone griddle, Weber charcoal grill, and en-suite bedroom patios.

Inside, the residence pairs durable architectural systems with carefully considered finishes, including Laja stone, Spanish and Italian tile, stucco walls, oversized glass doors, and abundant natural ventilation.

High-speed satellite internet, updated in June 2026, and USB charging throughout the living areas, bedrooms, and patios support modern connectivity without compromising the property’s sense of retreat.

The three bedrooms are privately positioned and each offers step-free access to its bathroom. Built-in desks and wardrobes in the first two bedrooms, blackout blinds, electric shades in the main living area and bathrooms, and an oversized lockable owner’s closet add both functionality and discretion.

Water is supported through AYA and ASADA oversight, community wells, a private 675-gallon underground reserve tank, and whole-home water softening. Security includes controlled community access, a private electronic gate, remote code management, intercom, Ring perimeter monitoring, and motion-activated lighting. A recently upgraded 40-foot, five-arm septic leach field provides additional capacity.

Beyond the architecture, the grounds reinforce the property’s connection to nature. Native dry-zone landscaping, fruit and flowering trees, and an ecological garden create habitat for butterflies, hummingbirds, and dragonflies. Practical amenities include surfboard storage, extensive hose connections, an irrigation system, dedicated maintenance paths, exterior storage, and service areas designed to make ownership and property management remarkably straightforward.

There is also room to expand the estate and create something uniquely your own. The lower area in front of the pool has already been measured and prepared for an approximately 40-by-60-foot multipurpose space, with potential for a half basketball court, volleyball, pickleball, or badminton. Alternatively, the space could be transformed into a lush garden, private yoga platform, wellness area, or even an additional guest house, subject to applicable approvals. The possibilities are as expansive as the setting.

An Established Hospitality Legacy

For an owner interested in continuing the property’s hospitality operation, the estate offers an additional layer of opportunity through the established vacation rental brand. The current owners are prepared to provide transition support to help preserve the property’s reputation, guest relationships, market recognition, and operational knowledge. The intention is to create continuity for returning guests while minimizing disruption during the transfer.

This creates a rare proposition: the ability to acquire not only a distinctive luxury residence within a protected natural setting, but also the potential to continue an established vacation rental operation with an existing market presence and track record.

Private, highly considered, and immersed in nature, this is a property for those who value exceptional design as much as they value the landscape beyond their windows. Here, Pacific horizons, protected wilderness, wellness-oriented living, and a sophisticated architectural residence come together in one of Costa Rica’s most compelling coastal settings.

With over 1,200 m² under construction, the two-story residence offers 7 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. The ground floor includes three bedrooms, two bathrooms, an open kitchen and living area, and direct interior access to the garage. Upstairs, four bedrooms and two bathrooms lead out to a private bar area with sweeping mountain views and its own independent outdoor entrance — perfect for entertaining without ever stepping through the main house.

Real Paradise is largely self-sufficient, powered by a solar system capable of running two homes of over 1,000 m² each, and supplied by its own private well drilled to over 140 meters. Public water and electricity are also available less than 50 meters from the property, giving a future owner full flexibility.

This is a rare chance to take over a luxury home project that is already well advanced — construction is approximately 70% complete, with the structure, solar system, and private water infrastructure already in place. A buyer has the opportunity to finish the home to their own taste, saving significant time and cost compared to building from the ground up.

The property is just under 2 acres and has beautiful jungle, valley, and ocean views towards the Pacific. Its gentle and usable slope offers ample space for additional gardens, greenhouses, or future expansions.

The main room has its own private bath, and the guest room has a shared bath.

The second structure has two spacious rooms, each with private bathrooms and entrances.

The property also has an ample solar system that covers the majority of the electrical consumption. This feature ensures uninterrupted electric service.
