$550,000 Homes in Nicaragua
San Juan del Sur | $549,000
This four-bedroom property with ocean views comprises a three-bedroom villa and a one-bedroom villa, each with a swimming pool, in the gated community of Pelican Eyes, in southwest Nicaragua.
Built in 2009, the two-story villas are part of a collection of dozens of homes that blend Mexican and Gaudi-esque architecture in whitewashed villas with rippling lines and red-tiled roofs. The gated community sprawls in the hills above San Juan del Sur, the small town on a bay of the same name, with the town's amenities accessible via road or stairways.
The houses in Pelican Eyes offer views of San Juan's beach crescent and the towering statue of the Christ of the Mercy overlooking the bay.
The international airport in Managua, Nicaragua's capital, is about 80 miles north of town, while the closer but more limited Costa Esmeralda airport is just over an hour north.
Size: About 4,000 square feet
Price per square foot: $137
Indoors: The main villa has an entrance on the second floor from a pergola-covered patio into the open kitchen and dining area. The kitchen has a breakfast island and access to a full bathroom and a laundry room. Beyond is the living area, with arched windows and an arched door opening to a large covered terrace.
Stairs descend to the home's lower level, which has three bedrooms, each with its own private entrance for rental purposes. Each bedroom has an en suite bathroom with hand-painted sinks and walk-in closet space, and accesses a private terrace. The main bedroom has a patio with a plunge pool.
