Orosi Valley
(Palomo; Cartago area) - An excellent, approximately 2,200-ft2 (206-m2) home on nearly
2/3 acre (3,500 m2) of land with an amazing view overlooking the Orosi Valley. The
developer is creating somewhat of a mountain community of similar homes all together (but
not a gated community, etc.), nestled among the surrounding coffee fields. Several other
homes have been completed and sold. This house will likely be finished by sometime in
September 2008.
This home measures about 2,200 ft2 (206 m2), with three bedrooms, two baths,
kitchen, living/dining area with fireplace, laundry room, etc., all with high ceilings of high-quality
hardwood, nice details, nice design, etc. The master bedroom (with bath) is on an upper level,
with its own sitting area. Given the interesting design of the house, you have an amazing
view from both the upper level and the living/dining/kitchen area, with that wall toward the
view being all windows. The living/dining area opens onto a lovely deck, where you can sit
and enjoy the spectacular view and lovely setting.
The area is excellent, with a very peaceful, back-to-nature feel. And the climate is superb, w
ith a Spring-like climate...year-round (you likely won't need heat or air-conditioning...ever!).
The general Orosi Valley is a fantastic area that is rapidly growing in touristic appeal
and has numerous attractions, including the nearby Tapantí National Park (6,000+ acres of
gorgeous virgin rainforest), world-class whitewater rafting and kayaking, two public thermal
baths (there are numerous hot springs around the valley) and a five-star hot spring spa/resort,
Lake Cachí and the Cachí Dam, several cultural landmarks (such as the oldest church still in
operation as well as the ruins of the very first church), quaint traditional towns, and the
scenic beauty of a valley that many guidebooks say is the prettiest in the country. Just a
short drive away is the Lankester Botanical Gardens, the Irazú and Turrialba Volcanos, the
Basilica de Nuestra Señora de Los Angeles in Cartago (home to the country's patron saint
and the destination of a yearly pilgrimmage that attracts over a million people). It's a
fantastic area! USD$225,000
