$290,000 - 2 BD / 2.5 BA - Rustic Caribbean Home Near Playa Grande, Cahuita

Property ID: 1163

Private Tropical Garden Living with a Distinctive Two-Level Layout and Room to Grow

Just outside Cahuita town, near Playa Grande, this distinctive Caribbean property offers a relaxed way of living surrounded by tropical greenery, open-air spaces, and the privacy of a generous garden.

Set on 1,606m² of titled land, the 120m² home offers two bedrooms arranged across two separate structures. The primary bedroom is located within the main house, while the second bedroom occupies a private upper-level A-frame structure, accessed by an outdoor staircase behind the kitchen. This separate arrangement offers added privacy for visiting family, friends, or guests.

The main home has an open-air design that brings the garden into everyday living. Its shared living space includes a galley-style kitchen, built-in seating, a guest half bathroom, and generous room for a lounge, dining area, workspace, or exercise area. The bedrooms are the enclosed private spaces, while the main living area remains open to the tropical surroundings.

The primary bedroom is located within the main structure and has its own ensuite bathroom. The second bedroom, completed in 2025, has a private entrance with a patio and an A-frame design with large windows that encourage natural airflow. Its compact ensuite includes a shower and toilet. A large laundry area connects to the main living space, alongside a lockable storage area and a separate dry room.

The property has been maintained and updated by its current owners. The electrical system was redone following their purchase in 2024, and the wooden sections of the home were retreated at the end of 2025. Outside, the garden is a defining feature. Beautifully maintained, it offers established tropical plants, fruit trees, and several lounge areas where you can enjoy the quiet surroundings and find your own private corner. A covered carport provides parking for one vehicle, with access through a secure sliding gate.

The property has its own well water supply, public electricity through ICE, and Starlink internet. It sits on predominantly coral ground at a slightly elevated position. Following the recent heavy rains, the land was observed to remain dry, with no water pooling at the time. Currently operated as an Airbnb, the property is being sold turnkey, including the physical rental setup and supplies.

Beyond the existing home and garden, the 1,606m² titled property offers room to explore future possibilities. There is space to consider additional living structures, guest accommodation, a swimming pool, or a more extensive outdoor entertaining area, subject to applicable building regulations and land-use approvals. The existing open-air living area could also be further enclosed or redesigned to suit a new owner's preferences.

Whether you are looking for a private Caribbean home, a property that accommodates visiting friends and family, or a place to enjoy now while gradually shaping its future, this is an opportunity to make a distinctive property your own. Located in a quiet community just outside Cahuita, the property offers a balance of privacy and walkable proximity to the beaches, restaurants, shops, and everyday amenities of the area.
