Near Downtown Orosi (Orosi Valley, Cartago) - A lovely, 2,200-ft2 (208-m2) home on nearly 1/2 acre within easy walking distance of downtown Orosi. The house is nestled amongst vegetation that's like your own botanical garden, with pathways, sitting areas, etc.! There's even a Traveler's Palm (the only other one I've seen here was in the Lankester Botanical Gardens)! It's amazing what they've done on 1/2 acre of land!
The house is very well built and has lots of nice details and features throughout. The kitchen (with pantry) and social/dining area have high ceilings and an open concept. That area opens to a nice terrace that looks onto a beautiful garden area.
The house has two bedrooms. The master bedroom has it's own large bath and opens to a walkway that goes all around the house. The other bedroom is next to a bath that also serves as the guest bath.
There's an enclosed walkway that goes all around the house. It's a great concept because, if you're going to be away for a while, you can lock up that area, leaving the house very secure. But, when you're home, you can open up those areas and not even notice the bars.
There are lovely views to the Irazu and Turrialba Volcanoes as well as the surrounding mountains. It's unusual to have such views yet be located within easy walking distance to Orosi.
The house comes with the refrigerator, stove and built-in oven. Other furniture may be available for discussion.
The area is excellent, with a very peaceful, back-to-nature feel. And the climate is superb, with a Spring-like climate YEAR-ROUND (you don't need heat or air-conditioning ...ever!).
The general Orosi Valley is a fantastic area that is rapidly growing in tourist appeal and has numerous attractions, including the nearby Tapantí National Park (6,000+ acres of gorgeous virgin rain forest), 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 in Cartago (home to the country's patron saint and the destination of a yearly pilgrimage that attracts over a million people). It's a fantastic area!
