This stylish home is located in Canto de Gavilanes, one of Sámara’s most quiet and safe neighborhoods. Positioned at the end of a dead-end road, the property offers excellent privacy and is set back from the main road, creating a peaceful and secure environment.

The location is ideal — just an 8-minute walk to the beach and 10 minutes to downtown Sámara, where you’ll find restaurants, cafés, and shops. A large supermarket and liquor store are only 3 minutes away.

The home features three bedrooms with queen beds and a spacious family room with a TV and two couches, which can also serve as additional sleeping space. The fully equipped kitchen opens directly onto a large, covered terrace, perfectly positioned between the house and the pool, creating a comfortable indoor-outdoor living area ideal for relaxing or entertaining.

Outside, you’ll find a beautiful, large private garden and a swimming pool, all within a fully fenced property, making it ideal for families and pet owners. The home also benefits from a strong rental history, making it an excellent option both as a family residence or an income-producing investment in one of Sámara’s most desirable locations.

Good to know

Buying in Costa Rica

Can foreigners own property here?

Yes. Foreign nationals have the same ownership rights as Costa Rican citizens and can hold titled property in their own name, a company, or a trust - no local partner required.

What are the typical closing costs?

Closing costs are largely set by law and usually total around 3.5-4% of the price, covering transfer tax, stamps and notary fees, plus legal due-diligence.

How does the buying process work?

Usually 45-90 days: a letter of intent with a deposit in escrow, title due-diligence by your attorney, a purchase agreement, then closing before a notary who registers the transfer.
