Casa Tula is a clear statement that residential architecture does not need to be ordinary and that true craftsmanship is far from lost. Set on perhaps the most private property within the gated community of Bosque Verde, this home offers extraordinary ocean views, exceptional privacy, and a level of design detail that will resonate with serious architectural enthusiasts.
This three bedroom, three bathroom timber frame residence was conceived to stand apart from the familiar concrete and glass construction common in the area. Its building method is rare in Nosara, found in only a handful of homes, yet it is globally respected and rooted in traditional Japanese timber construction.
The structure is formed from carefully chosen teak beams and columns, many left in live edge form, and assembled without metal fasteners. Instead, the home relies on an intricate system of hand-cut wood joinery using pegs and precisely chiseled connections. The result is a residence that is both structurally enduring and visually compelling, rewarding those who appreciate the skill, intention, and longevity behind its design.
The home is entered from the lower level, where you will find a primary suite, a bunk room, and a shared bathroom. This level also includes a generously sized laundry and utility room with ample storage for household items and recreational gear. Both bedrooms open directly onto the lower patio, offering immediate ocean views to start the day.
Ascending to the upper level, the views fully unfold and the craftsmanship of the home becomes increasingly apparent. The kitchen is fully equipped with high-end appliances, fixtures, and finishes, all positioned to take advantage of the ocean backdrop while entertaining. The interior living area flows seamlessly onto a spacious outdoor terrace, creating an expansive setting for gathering and relaxation.
The master suite is located on this level, sharing the same sweeping ocean views found throughout the home. It features a walk-through closet and a thoughtfully designed bathroom with a well-proportioned vanity, shower, and water closet. This home demonstrates how exceptional design and refined finishes can be achieved without excess or wasted space. It delivers a level of thoughtfulness and balance that defines an ideal Nosara residence. The property truly needs to be experienced in person to be fully appreciated. Contact us to schedule a visit. We would be pleased to show you this remarkable home.
