Full Description:
Beautifully located close to the small village of Puente Piedras, is this BRAND NEW house, at the moment still under construction, in a small community. The VIEWS of this property are really INCREDIBLE and can be enjoyed from every terrace. Via the electric gates you enter on the asphalt driveway toward the double car garage also with an electric door.
The decks which are almost around the whole house gives you the ultimate home feeling. Via an old fashioned impressive front door you enter the hallway where a marble tiled guestroom is located.
All around is the old style wainscot and a beamed wooden ceiling.
This 2 story property features at the ground floor: an entrance hall with a guest bathroom, huge living room with covered terrace and magnificent views of the mountains, an open office space connected to the living area, fully equipped Italian kitchen with cooking island, laundry area and machine room with generator, master bedroom with walk in closet and bathroom and private terrace and a double garage. This whole floor will be paneled (wainscot).The master bathroom is completely marble with a by door separated toilet.
In the big walk in closet you can store all your stuff. The open study is a little higher than the living room and is separated by a railing.
In the study there are two handmade libraries where you can store all your books and more. The study has a solid wooden floor.
The Italian kitchen in the ambiance of gone by days, yet with modern appliances like Fridge, Stove, Microwave, Cooking hood (above the central cooking island) Dishwasher.
All are in stainless steel.
The stove is on gas and has a grill in the middle between the burners.
The kitchen is really a “must see item”
There is an engine room were all the technical parts of the house are located, which means that in case of trouble or maintenance this will be the only place you have to go.
Also located in the engine room is the heavy water pump which gives you the pleasure of taking a shower with a lot of water and there is a water reservoir of around 4.000 liter as a back up.
In the garden, a little away from the house is a 16 m2 rancho where you can have a BBQ
Dog kennel.
As in Costa Rica the powers falls out which happens quiet often, a professional diesel generator is placed, switching on automatically when the blackout of the electricity appears.
Huge double car garage where even three smaller cards will fit.
The direct TV, telephone and ADSL are located here too.
On the first floor we find a huge TV room in an open connection, with balcony, to the living room, 2 bedrooms both with their own (2) bathroom and one huge space of around 60 m2 which can be used as a library or work / office space.
The entire property is fenced with security wire and has as alarm system outside. Besides The fence is wired with 12000 volts and in a short while the 400 Bougainville plants will take care of a sea of flower colors.
This house is unique in Costa Rica as it is built the American way while the model is as an old fashioned Victorian style, mixed with a country rancho style house.
In the neighborhood the house is already a landmark!
The whole house is fitted with the best materials as for example all the doors are provided with Multilock materials.(Plycem concrete paneling / steel construction); this means maintenance free. The house has a one key system, so one Multilock key for everything. (No more searching for the right key to enter an area.
All of the electric lights in the house are halogen lights.
