Currently a single bedroom home, about 850ft2, with a simple layout and 2 story tall living areas allowing floods of natural light to pour in. Views are lovely, to mountains and meadows, and covered terraces can be used year round. Owner is finishing and add-on to expand the home into a two bedroom/ two bathroom cottage, and there is still an optional 3rd BR/BA in the unfinished, but plumbed and wired loft that can be completed by future owner.
Peaceful, quiet, and surrounding by natural grasses, trees and birds – this home was designed with unique touches throughout, including carved wooden doors from an old church that have been re-purposed. Modern amenities include hot water, versatile sunken bath/shower combo – but all on one floor for easy access. Easy to maintain materials including new vinyl ceilings and acid stained concrete floors complete the home. Choose your own finishing touches for outside underceilings and patios.
Property sits on 25,000m2 of land with rare mature hardwood trees on property. Could be used to build lovely homes for a family compound or cabinas on this retreat style property! Area very popular with ticos from San Jose looking to get away for vacation time. And this is over 5 acres!! Can have your own private homestead AND an area for tourism – there is even the natural division from a hill behind the home that rolls down into a year round river along the border of the property. Lots of room to build more homes, if desired, or simply enjoy this cottage setting on your own. Expat neighbors close by for English speakers, if that is important. Shoot, I forget all my Spanish in an emergency so I know it’s important to have neighbors close by that can help if I need it! And this home has just that. Quite beautiful and peaceful, with river frontage, areas for talapia (previously had 2 ponds when lived in full time), room for horse stables, anything you wan to add! Presently planted with coffee, organic earth raised garden beds, fruit trees, plus more. Set just 25 minutes from the center of San Ramon city, in a lovely quiet and rich agricultural area of mostly ticos and a few expats. If peace and quiet, gardening, reading, retreat style living is what you are looking for, this little casa en el bosque is just right for you!
