Costa de Oro - Salinas, Salinas, Santa Elena, Ecuador
An amazing opportunity to own a great 2-story house situated on an over-sized lot, encompassed by a perimeter wall for privacy. A perfect family compound which boasts a fabulous outdoor area for entertaining year-round. The home was designed with an extreme amount of attention to detail and has been impeccably maintained. Located all of a few short blocks to the quiet and non-crowded Salinas beach area of Costa de Oro. . You enter the property and are greeted with a paved walkway showcasing beautiful tilework leading up to the entrance to the home with a grand custom-made iron door with ocean-them etchings. To the right of the entrance is a covered carport which can hold 2 vehicles and has automatic garage door opener. Off to the left is a small grassy area with water fountain with a path that leads to an independent suite which has been converted to an outdoor workshop/tool storage. . The main residence foyer has high ceilings with grand staircase heading up to the second level, again with nice custom iron-work for the railings. Under the stairs there is a powder room. To the right is one of the entrances to the gourmet kitchen. This kitchen is from a magazine with its center island, double sink under the window, gorgeous granite countertop and tremendous amount of upper and lower cabinetry for storage. Off the kitchen is a laundry area and pantry where additional refrigeration can be had for food-items. You can exit the laundry room to the exterior of the home. The kitchen’s second entrance leads you out to the dining area with room enough to sit eight people easily. This dining room is separated from the formal living room only by a small half wall allowing openness and light to pass through. Past the formal living room is an additional seating area for watching TV. This entire living/dining space is flanked by full-length sliding glass doors which all lead to the outdoor covered patio and entertainment area. .
When you wrap back around the living area to the foyer, we head upstairs and come to a landing with a small niche area which currently has a table and chair set for playing cards or any other hobby and could easily be converted into a library/studio area. Down the hall there are 2 large bedrooms off to the left, each with access to a nice balcony which overlooks the pool. Each of these bedrooms has air-conditioning, closets, window treatments and own full en-suite bathrooms. In the hallway on the right hand side is the main bedroom which is enormous: the bedroom itself, the bathroom, and the closet are all over-sized! The bedroom has access to a small balcony overlooking the grassy fountain area. The walk-in closet is every woman’s dream, and the en-suite bathroom is amazing with no detail spared from the gorgeous choice in ceramic and the separation of spaces. . If this weren’t enough, the back exterior area of the home is unbelievable – the photos just do not do it justice. The covered patio area with formal seating is right outside the living/dining rooms. Off to the left there is a Pirate Bar plus BBQ area with double ovens for a great outdoor kitchen experience. Past the bar in the left corner is the jacuzzi, abutting the awesome inground pool surrounded by outdoor seating nooks. The entire right-hand side of this patio area is covered over with bamboo woodworking throughout offering a great rustic look for what could be your Pirate Cove! Covered seating is plentiful under here and is a great place to watch a movie on an outdoor screen or perhaps do some karaoke! . Please contact us for a private showing of this amazing property. You know you want to be here!!
