This single-story, Tuscan-style home sits on a 17,176 m² (4.24-acre) lot in San Rafael de Alajuela, with a private entrance, mature gardens and large trees. The main house has 430 m² (4,629 sq ft) of built area and comes with a separate guest house and a storage building with a bedroom and bath. It is a rare combination of space and privacy for families or buyers who want room without leaving the Central Valley’s services behind.
The Tuscan architecture shows in the warm-toned walls, tile roofs, arches and wood windows with arched tops. The great room has high ceilings with exposed wood beams and brings together the living room, the dining area, surrounded by windows facing the garden, and the kitchen, which has a curved wood island, light cabinetry with glass-front cabinets, a breakfast bar with a wood top and a pantry. Wrought-iron doors open the living room to a covered, arched terrace, and a covered walkway with a cane ceiling runs along the house toward the garden.
The house wraps in a U shape around an interior courtyard with a fountain, overlooked by the hallway and the primary bedroom’s sitting area. A vaulted foyer lined with bookshelves connects the library, the primary bedroom and the office, which could also work as a playroom. The primary bedroom has a sitting area, a walk-in closet and a private bath that opens to an outdoor shower. The two secondary bedrooms open to a covered walkway and share a second full bath. There is also a guest half bath, a laundry room and a jetted tub.
The guest house has a bedroom, a living area, a kitchenette, a bath with a shower and a terrace. The storage building has a bedroom, a bath with a shower, a work area and an outdoor kitchen, and the property also has a trailer storage area. San Rafael de Alajuela has access to Route 27 and the General Cañas Highway, with Juan Santamaría International Airport, City Mall and downtown Alajuela a short drive away.
