Elegant Modern Home Oasis

Magnificently designed by world famous Costa Rican Architect Benjamin Saxe this 5 bedroom luminous
home sits directly beside a nature reserve on a generously expansive and expertly landscaped property.
The river Machuca, a destination for hiking and crystal clear swimming pools is accessible directly from
your back door. Living in the home is like a lullaby with the sound of the river inspiring creativity, calm
and focus.

Casa River song is a true Oasis.

Along with spacious well ventilated rooms, high ceilings, modern design, with comfort as a central
architectural element, the home was built in 2013 as a potential future retreat centre, and features a built-
in fully covered yoga platform, high speed internet, and room for tiny homes, or glamping tents. The
home is also easily converted into two single family homes. It is a single family home, a vacation home, a
retreat centre, a well maintained income property or whatever the future owner dreams it to be.

The home features and handmade driftwood light installation and an Art installation by Canadian metal
artist Geordie Lishman.

The land surrounding the home was planted with modern permaculture designs over 9 years ago and
now boasts well established and highly diverse superfood fruit forest including 5 cacao trees, lemons,
oranges, bananas, papayas, macadamia, and the incredible immune boosting acerola trees. Many other
incredible diverse native trees also line the lot including 2 soothing aromatic Ylang Ylang trees planted to
bring gentle aromatherapy to the living room and kitchen.

Located on one of the largest and most private lots in the eco villa, on a quiet cul-de-sac, the home was
built with impeccable materials and fixtures for a single family with lots of visitors. The family is now
relocating and is ready to pass the home along to the next caretakers.
