The views from this property are so incredible that the feeling of inspiration and peacefulness is automatically instilled in any one enjoying them... The panoramic views feature spectacular sunrises on top of the mountains near Irazu Volcano, and sunsets far away over the Pacific Ocean in the Gulf of Nicoya. You can also admire the city lights East to West, from Tres Ríos in Cartago towards the capital city of San Jose, Desamparados, Escazu, Santa Ana and the International airport located in Alajuela. Three majestic volcanoes enhance your views; Irazu to the East, Barva and its National Park to the Northeast, and Poas to the Northwest. One mountain range after the other evolve to capture the infinity of your dreams, when sitting on the balconies or resting on the terrace of this unique luxury villa. The view is the gift from nature, and you can have it every day for free as the new owner of a home that was built to satisfy the needs of the most distinguished clientele. Prime location and perfect year-round weather are the PLUS of this property at 1,400 meters of elevation.

A long driveway with 12 inches of compacted gravel and 6 inches of high strength stamped concrete tinted to match the color of the surrounding structures, and bordered with royal palms and tropical plants along the sides, leads you through the property. There is a duplex apartment with 2 bedrooms and one bath each, which can be used for guest apartments or as worker’s quarters. Not far from the apartments there are two large green houses with an automatic irrigation system, which is used for growing plants for the green areas, as well as organic vegetables. As you travel toward the main home, and the central complex of other buildings, there is a fruit orchard with all varieties of fruits, such as lemons, oranges, avocados, apples, plumbs, mangoes, grapes, etc. The private road takes you to the center of the property where you will find the main home, barn and horse stables, entertainment rancho, and two nice guest homes.

Each of the bedrooms has high vaulted ceilings and recessed lighting, as well as spacious private balconies to enjoy the views with coffee in the mornings.

Descending the steps, you are lured to the 30,000 gallon heated infinity edge pool with a central, 3 tier fountain, and a salt cleaning system, and the 8 person, Sundance Jacuzzi, which is loaded with jets to enhance your spa experience.
