Casa Los Roques

Description:

Casa Los Roques | Architectural Ocean View Residence in Finca Los Pargos

Perched at one of the highest points of Finca Los Pargos, Casa Los Roques is an extraordinary architectural residence where contemporary design, dramatic ocean views, and Costa Rica’s natural beauty come together in perfect harmony. Positioned to face west, the home enjoys uninterrupted views of the Pacific Ocean and spectacular sunsets, while the surrounding tropical dry forest creates a peaceful setting filled with howler monkeys, tropical birds, butterflies, hummingbirds, and fragrant ylang-ylang trees.

Designed by renowned architect Juan Ignacio Aranguren, whose work spans more than 25 years of residential architecture and includes collaboration with the late Zaha Hadid, the home is a sculptural expression of light, landscape, and organic forms. Local hardwoods, coralina stone, expansive glass, and flowing architectural lines create a residence that feels seamlessly connected to its surroundings.

A Dramatic Arrival

The experience begins the moment you enter the property. A carefully designed approach leads to a stunning glass-walled central living space where floor-to-ceiling openings frame breathtaking views of the Pacific, the infinity-edge pool, and the surrounding forest canopy. The home's architecture is designed to blur the boundaries between indoors and outdoors, making the landscape part of everyday living.

Designed for Indoor-Outdoor Living

At the heart of Casa Los Roques is a spacious open-concept living area and beautifully crafted wooden kitchen, both oriented toward the ocean and sunset views. A custom sliding door made from locally sourced pochote wood allows the kitchen to be enclosed when desired while preserving the home's clean architectural aesthetic. Even while cooking, uninterrupted views of the infinity pool and Pacific Ocean remain the focal point.

Every room has been thoughtfully positioned to maximize natural light, cross ventilation, and the property's elevated setting while respecting the site's original topography and native vegetation.

Comfortable Spaces for Family and Guests

Offering approximately 3,552 square feet (330 m²) of indoor-outdoor living space, the residence provides a flexible layout designed for both everyday living and entertaining. The home features three serene bedrooms, including a spacious primary suite and a Jack-and-Jill bedroom configuration that is ideal for family or guests. A large playroom and TV lounge adds versatility, creating additional space for relaxation, entertainment, or a home office.

A Private Tropical Sanctuary

Outside, beautifully landscaped gardens surround the home with fruit trees, flowering tropical plants, butterflies, hummingbirds, and the signature fragrance of mature ylang-ylang trees. The infinity-edge pool appears to merge with the Pacific horizon, creating an unforgettable setting for swimming, entertaining, or simply enjoying Costa Rica's spectacular sunsets from one of the property's many outdoor living areas.

A Rare Opportunity on Costa Rica’s Gold Coast

Located within the exclusive Finca Los Pargos community near Playa Negra and Playa Avellanas, Casa Los Roques offers privacy and tranquility while remaining close to world-class surfing, beautiful beaches, restaurants, and the vibrant coastal communities of Guanacaste.
