4 Bed Single Family Homes For Sale

Discover a truly rare opportunity on Costa Rica’s wild and spectacular Osa Peninsula: two separate parcels totaling approximately 19 acres, offered together in Playa Amapola just outside the thriving community of Puerto Jiménez. The centerpiece is approximately 7 acres with direct frontage on the Golfo Dulce and, most importantly, direct water access from the property an increasingly rare opportunity within Costa Rica real estate for those who dream of living on the water, creating a private retreat, or developing a distinctive investment in one of the country’s most naturally spectacular regions.

The waterfront parcel includes a titled portion with a rustic, open-air tropical home featuring 1+ bedroom and 1 bathroom. Designed for indoor-outdoor living, the home embraces the natural beauty and climate of the Osa Peninsula. Solar panels currently provide all of the property's electricity, allowing for a comfortable off-grid lifestyle, while public electric service is available directly at the property should a future owner prefer to connect. A separate 2-bedroom guest house has also been used successfully as a vacation rental, offering additional accommodation for guests, family, or income-producing potential.

Both existing homes are functional and provide an excellent opportunity to begin enjoying the property immediately, while allowing a new owner to update and personalize them over time. Alternatively, build your dream home overlooking the Golfo Dulce and use one of the existing residences while construction is underway. The existing improvements provide flexibility, but the true value of this property is its extraordinary location and direct access to the water.

The land surrounding the homes offers a quintessential Osa Peninsula setting, with mature fruit trees, a shrimp pond, abundant wildlife, and the extraordinary biodiversity for which the Osa is renowned. Here, nature is not something you visit—it is part of everyday life. Despite its wonderfully private and tropical setting, the property is easily accessible and does not require a 4WD vehicle. At high tide, it is even possible to bring a boat directly from the deep water gulf to the property, opening the door to an entirely different way of living.

Adding even more potential to the offering is a separate approximately 12-acre parcel included in the sale. This additional property is relatively flat and has historically been used as farmland. It also benefits from frontage along the public road leading toward Puerto Jiménez—an important advantage for anyone considering future development, agricultural use, commercial possibilities, or simply preserving additional land for the future. Together, the two parcels offer an unusual combination of waterfront living, acreage, accessibility, and expansion potential.
