Under construction since December 2006, The Oaks features spacious 2 bedroom condominium units built with exquisite attention to detail.

The Oaks Design

 The Oaks offers two bedroom/two bath units with over 980 square feet of total construction area and almost 900 square feet of living area. Each unit has a private covered parking space.

Each unit enjoys high 9 feet 4 inch ceilings, with soaring cathedral ceilings and attic storage with third floor units. Third floor units also enjoy a semi-private outdoor patio area, technically a part of the common elements and therefore not artificially expanding the unit’s size.

Because each unit is located on one level, the units use space to maximum effect. The two bedrooms are of virtually identical size, ideal for renting or sharing with another couple. The large bath attached to the second bedroom has a special privacy door for the toilet area, functioning as a bath and a half. Ground floor units have a private garden, technically a part of the common elements.

Because we have observed various and inconsistent methods of calculating the number of square feet or square meters within a condominium unit in Costa Rica, we show you our floor plan measured in the three most common ways: from interior wall to interior wall, mid-wall to mid-wall, and outside wall to outside wall. Actual measurements may vary slightly during construction. We will adjust your purchase price on a dollar per square foot basis in the event of a variance of 2% or more from plan to construction.

It is obtained from base materials of great strength, and then submitted to a heat and pressure treatment greater than that utilized for the production of conventional ceramic tiles.

It is also heat-resistant, friction-resistant and resists expansion as a result of flooding.
