About this property
Designed by a well-known modernist architect using materials such as concrete, rocks from the countryside, and Lapacho wood, this home has a distinctive feel and blends into the natural surroundings. The house is located on one of the best lots in one of the best-established gated communities, with unobstructed views into the national park, offering stunning country and sunset views. The lot is unique for its large natural rocks in the backyard, which integrate nicely with the house, and no one can build in front of it. Very well built in 2012/2013 for all-year-round living, this house has all the bells and whistles. It features an open concept with a sunken living room and fireplace, a dining area with an open American kitchen and bar, and large floor-to-ceiling windows that allow an abundance of light into the house. The entire roof was redone in 2024, and the house is kept up with all the maintenance needed, as the current owners built and live in the house all year round. The main house features 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, with 2 on the main level and a main suite upstairs. All bedrooms have built-in Lapacho wood cabinets and provide plenty of space for clothing.
All windows are top-of-the-line aluminum with “dual-pane” glass and special oversized, pet-undestroyable mosquito screens. Energy-efficient, sectorized underfloor heating is provided throughout with a heat pump. Split AC systems are installed in all rooms and areas. A special FILSA water filter system is installed with a blue box and ultraviolet filter, plus an extra osmosis water filter system in the kitchen. An IKATU indoor central lighting control system and outdoor lights are installed. All indoor and outdoor doors are solid Lapacho wood. All bathrooms have sinks and wet areas custom-made from solid local granite stone. The window shutters are made of solid Lapacho wood. The terrace can be closed with custom-made Lapacho wood screens to keep bugs out in the evening and to enjoy outdoor living.
All stainless-steel VIKING Professional appliances in the modern built-in kitchen were imported from the USA, are top quality, and can be serviced locally. American two-door large refrigerator with freezer, large double oven, gas burner stove, and wine fridge. High-end gourmet kitchen cabinets and drawers custom-made by the company JOHNSON. There is a laundry area off the kitchen with a separate entrance.
The house features KEF surround speakers both inside and out, a MARANTZ receiver, and a SAMSUNG 65” flat-screen TV.
A guest house built in 2024 is currently used as an atelier and includes a full bathroom, a large storage area, a utility room, and a covered parking area for 2 cars with an electric car charger installed. The entire property is fenced and ideal for keeping animals.
