Steve Jacobus

The main house of Tierra Magnifica (Magnificent Land) was designed by Geko Design in Nosara and completed in 2000. The main house has 4,200 square feet (390M2) with four bedrooms, two full kitchens and 3.5 baths.

The upper level includes a master suite with private bath, dual sink basin and French doors opening to a large lounging balcony.

The large kitchen includes a range and stove, convection oven/microwave, large side-by-side refrigerator, and a breakfast bar. The kitchen also has a half bath and a large bodega closet. Outside the kitchen is the dining and lounging balcony featuring a table that seats ten people, an "L" shaped couch with views of the Pacific waves and valleys below. Across the kitchen from the master suite is a spacious bedroom with three twin beds, closets and another private full bathroom.

The lower level of the main house features two bedrooms, one with a king bed and one with a queen, a shared bathroom and a relaxing family room. The lower level also has a large walk-in bodega and a full kitchen with appliances opening out to the dining patio and pool deck.

This Tierra Magnifica land measures 2.5 hectares (6.17 acres), 2 hectares (20,000 square meters or 215,200 square feet) are within the gated grounds and 5,000 square meters (53,800 square feet) is located on the eastern property line outside the gate entrance to the property.

Located about 4.5 hours from San Jose's International airport and only 2 hours from the Liberia International airport although after the newly paved coastal road is open, the drive from Liberia International airport should be only about 90 minutes.

The Top Ten Things The Owners Love About Their Home:

1. This is a really special property. The views are incredible and offer all possibilities, the ocean and surf, the lush green valleys, forests and the rolling hills.
2. With 2 hectares within the gated grounds, there are no views of the neighbors, total privacy.
3. The pool and deck with he sweeping views
4. The sound of the breeze and the surf, not cars or construction.
5. Room for guests and families - 10 bedrooms, but lot's of space for all
6. Creature comforts within the beauty of the rainforest - such as satellite hi-speed Internet, Direct TV and cell phone reception
7. I love to do Yoga in our new octagon shaped rancho pavilion with inspiring views suspended above the forest and the ocean beyond.
8. The super secluded private waterfall and nature walk takes me to another world in the jungle.
9. We love to grill pizzas in the open air grilling kitchen beside the rancho pavilion.
10. Sipping coffee and journaling in the gazebo as the sun raises.

The Tierra Magnifica poolside cabinas offer 2 identically designed and furnished guest units with a full bath and kitchenette with mini fridge, coffee maker and 2 burner gas range. (350 square feet each) These units have handmade rattan queen beds and night stands.

The poolside cabinas have large double French doors opening up to balconies providing a magical, suspended vista of the canopy forest below, the lush fields and valleys and the white water surf of playa Guiones. The grass roof above helps to keep the cabinas cool in the mid day sun while providing poolside guests with a natural sunning deck perched high above the treetops.

This is one of the potential ocean view building sites on the property where you could build a new luxury home and sell it.

New Rancho Pavilion and Cabinas - Built in 2006:

Tierra Magnifica offers a magnificent, spacious tropical gathering place, our new octagon shaped 900 square foot rancho tucked into the forest canopy below the main house with inspiring views of the jungle, Pacific Surf and lush mountain slopes.

This traditionally handcrafted Guanacaste Rancho was constructed by the top rancho builder in the Nosara area and includes exotic hardwoods, teak flooring, cana brava interior roofing and rustic hardwood posts and beams.

Beside the rancho is a similarly constructed open air grilling kitchen with a large grated grilling pit, running water and sink, two below counter refrigerators, microwave oven and plenty of counter space to cater a large gathering.

Below the new rancho are two guest cabinas (325 square feet) built of the same natural materials as the rancho pavilion and feature handcrafted furniture, private balconies overlooking the lush tropical forest and ocean, mini refrigerators and a half bath located between the cabinas which is accessible to the rancho pavilion guests.

The level below the rancho cabinas features a spectacular tropical bathroom for our cabina guests. The open air spacious bathroom includes a hot water shower built along side a river rock wall, a guanacaste double sink basin, cana brava roof, ceramic tiled flooring and a separate water closet.

The bathroom is completely private, exposes only to the dense tropical foliage and howler monkeys. Also on this level is a third bedroom or office with ocean view.

A large kidney shaped wood deck and tiled pool (15 x 30 feet), offers a cool and refreshing respite on those hot, sunny days - most days. The pool deck is surrounded by large, mature shade trees without blocking the panoramic views and can accommodate gatherings of over 200 guests.

Just off the pool deck is the Sunrise Gazebo (140 square feet), a favorite early morning coffee spot to gaze at the sun climbing over the mountains and lighting up the green valleys and fields.
