House for sale in Jacó, Garabito · 5 BR, 4.5 baths, 1,300 m²

4-Bedroom Mountain Retreat with Guest Studio las Monas – Private, Modern and Close to the Beach

Nestled between Jaco and Playa Herradura, this completely remodeled mountain retreat offers peace, privacy, and convenience. Located in the small countryside town of Las Monas, you’ll enjoy fresh mountain air, lush forest, and abundant birdlife, while a river with natural pools and hidden waterfalls winds through the area. It’s a quiet, authentic Costa Rican community, yet only five minutes from the highway, Jaco, and Herradura. Plaza Herradura with shops and services is just minutes away, and the world-class Los Sueños Resort & Marina offers fine dining, golf, and sport fishing nearby.

Set on a gated 1,300 m² lot and adjacent to a 60-acre horse farm, the 2,200 sq. ft. home features four bedrooms, three and a half bathrooms, a large open living and entertainment area, a wine nook or coffee bar, and a gourmet kitchen with a custom live-edge island.

Adding flexibility, a 500 sq. ft. guest studio with granite kitchen, breakfast nook, queen bed, sofa area, and a two-person rock shower can be incorporated into the main home or rented separately with its own private entrance. Two laundry stations, a fenced patio for pets, and a spacious covered terrace round out the thoughtful design.

Outside, the property shines with a sparkling pool, poolside bar, sink and BBQ under a rancho designed for entertaining. Large windows throughout the home connect you to the gardens, forest, mountain breezes, and natural light.

The home has undergone a complete remodel including new tile, bathrooms, closets, kitchen, roof, plumbing, electrical upgrades, and fresh paint inside and out. It has not been rented since its renovation and is offered in pristine, turn-key condition.

Peter’s Take:
This is where countryside charm meets coastal convenience. You get rivers, waterfalls, and forest in a peaceful town — yet in five minutes you’re on the highway, at the beach, in Jaco, or heading into Los Sueños. Privacy when you want it, access when you need it — that’s the sweet spot.
