Live in harmony on this stunning 2.5-ha ocean-view Panama nature retreat near Playa Venao. The 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom home was built in 2015 and overlooks the National Wildlife Refuge of Isla Canas, the world-renowned Olive Ridley (Lepidochelys olivacea) sea turtle nesting grounds. From almost anywhere on the property stunning Pacific Ocean views prevail, and one should expect daily visits from a variety of species of monkeys. The home was built using a blend of bamboo, steel, and concrete block construction with native hardwood Guayacan floors and varied hardwood accents. The walls are Plycem, an environmentally-sustainable and energy-efficient fiber cement sheet that's strong yet light and resistant to water, humidity, insects, and fire. The Plycem has been layered with a durable Merlex stucco, on the interior and exterior of the home. The roof is durable zinc with a gutter catchment system that channels rainwater into four large storage tanks, a big plus in this seasonally dry region of Panama. The main living space is dedicated to the second level of the home. It features an open layout design between the kitchen and living room with a full bathroom and a spacious 3rd story loft above. The kitchen is large and crafted primarily from native Panamanian cedar (Cedrela odorata or cedro amargo). The large master bedroom features a full bathroom. PVC framed custom made windows with screens and sliding doors made by the Panama based company, FrenchView Windows, offer seasonal breezes and stunning views of the surrounding Panama landscape and forest. All beds are made from locally crafted oak (roble). The sprawling porch is covered and built from local almond wood (almendro), a highly sought-after native hardwood. The 3rd story loft is especially spacious. A beautiful handcrafted door surprises you with a large enclosed attic type storage area. The loft could very easily be converted to one or more bedrooms and/or an office. On the ground level of the home, there is a guest apartment and laundry area. This level is built of traditional concrete block. Two separate storage areas with custom hardwood shelves and hand crafted tool rack keep everything organized. There is a separate deposito for the water heater and another for the propane gas tank connection. There is an enclosed outdoor double sink. Ten faucet connections are scattered around the house and throughout the food forest hill. The covered area outside the apartment provides a carport for two vehicles. There is also an additional outdoor 'Mayan shower' that allows you to bathe while you watch the monkeys forage from the nearby trees (and they watch back;). The owners have worked extensively with Pro Eco Azuero, a local environmental non-profit organization, to reforest their tropical paradise. The property has several different 'zones': one hill designated as a food forest, another as a monkey lookout, and a third as sacred, filled with native hardwoods and a seasonal spring. A pristine magical seasonal creek meanders along the East side of the property with two seasonal waterfalls, one visible from the food forest hill. The smaller one is a short walk up the creek. The gardens are filled with permaculture plants and perennial greens, providing year-round harvest. Homemade sit spots greet you on every path reminding you to slow down and enjoy paradise.
