About this property

Casa Trece is a tranquil 2-bedroom, 1-bath home inside La Ecovilla Original, one of Costa Rica’s best-known intentional eco communities. Set on a generous 1,934 m² lot in San Mateo, Alajuela, the home offers approximately 75 m² of living space surrounded by gardens, fruit trees, mountain views, birdsong, and the everyday rhythm of community-based living.

The home is described by the source listing as a modern Scandinavian-style retreat with high ceilings, natural light, a furnished interior, a well-stocked kitchen, air conditioning, ceiling fans, and a new front terrace for slow mornings or relaxed gatherings. Outdoor paths and stairways move through the land toward a private hammock area with open views, while the lot also offers potential space for an additional home on the hill.

For buyers exploring intentional community living in Costa Rica, Casa Trece offers a useful balance: a move-in-ready home, an established ecological setting, and direct connection to La Ecovilla Original’s wider community context. The property is especially suited to people looking for a quieter, nature-connected lifestyle within an existing regenerative community rather than a standalone conventional home.
