Positioned just one block from the sand in Playa Junquillal, this recently completed home offers a rare combination of proximity, build quality, and price point in one of Guanacaste’s most quietly desirable coastal settings. Set on a low-traffic street, the home encompasses approximately 86 m² (925 ft²) of interior living space, complemented by a 35 m² (377 ft²) covered outdoor terrace that functions as the primary living area. The layout is efficient and intentional: two equally sized bedrooms, a spacious bathroom that doubles as a laundry area, and an open kitchen and living space that flows directly to the terrace. Construction prioritizes durability and comfort, with steel framing, insulation, and teak finishes throughout—including the ceilings and outdoor patio. The home is offered fully furnished and turnkey, allowing for immediate use as a personal residence or income-producing rental. Recent upgrades further enhance usability and security. A perimeter fence has been added, creating a defined and secure outdoor space—particularly valuable for pet owners or rental scenarios. An office area has also been incorporated, increasing flexibility for remote work or extended stays, along with additional thoughtful improvements that elevate day-to-day livability. The covered terrace overlooks the surrounding dry tropical forest, anchored by a mature native pochote tree that draws consistent birdlife and provides natural shade. There is ample space in front of the home to add a private pool, complementing the beach access just steps away. Additional features include an attic storage area—an uncommon but practical inclusion—providing extra space without impacting the clean footprint of the home. Location remains a key driver of value. Playa Junquillal offers a laid-back coastal lifestyle with a small but growing mix of restaurants, a mini market, pharmacy, and clinic. Within a short drive, you have access to multiple additional beaches—each with its own character—while Playa Tamarindo, approximately 30 minutes away, provides full-scale amenities, dining, and services. Guanacaste International Airport (LIR) is approximately 1.5 hours by car. In the current Guanacaste market, true turnkey homes within walking distance to the beach—particularly at this price point—are becoming increasingly scarce. This property presents a straightforward opportunity: a well-built, low-maintenance coastal home with strong rental potential and immediate usability. If you’re evaluating options in this segment of the market, this is one worth seeing in person.
