About this home
The driveway runs between two buildings: the main house on one side, and facing it a self-contained guest studio — kitchenette, bathroom, its own entrance. Inside the studio, a bed behind a wooden divider, a bathtub under a rain shower, and a table for two by the door. On top of the studio, a glass-railed terrace faces the city. You reach it from the upper floor of the main house, across a bridge over the carport. This four-bedroom house in Cerro Alto, a gated community in San Rafael de Escazú, comes furnished and equipped.
Inside the main house, cream marble with gold travertine transitions runs the ground floor: a living room, a dining room, and a second, longer living space with a drinks cabinet in one corner. The kitchen opens off it through two wide openings — flat-fronted cabinetry to the ceiling, stainless appliances, a window over the sink, and black granite counters that carry through to a breakfast bar faced in black hexagonal tile. One of the four bedrooms is on this floor, en-suite. Separately, a guest half bathroom opens off the hall.
The other three bedrooms are upstairs, each with a private bathroom. The primary has two walk-in closets, one with a window over the city. Another is fitted as an office today. Off the office, a separate room: blackout curtains on every wall, a large screen, its own air conditioning. Dark and quiet.
Outside, a pool with jets, a basketball hoop on the wall beside it, an outdoor shower, a covered patio under a reed ceiling strung with lights, a lawn and gardens, and parking for six cars, four covered. The house is 562 square meters of construction on a 990.72 square meter lot, built in 2004 and renovated in 2024. The service quarters — one room, one bathroom — do not count among the four bedrooms; nor does the studio. The windows are double glazed, central air conditioning serves the upper floor, and the house has fiber-optic internet.
Cerro Alto is a gated community with 24-hour security, a clubhouse, gym, pools, and tennis, basketball and soccer courts; the HOA fee is US$700 a month. Hospital CIMA, the Multiplaza Escazú mall and Distrito Cuatro are in Escazú, on the western edge of San José, Costa Rica.
Financing available. The house is for sale at US$1,275,000, furniture and equipment included — you arrive with suitcases, not a moving truck. Write to us to arrange a private showing.
