The cathedral-style interior is beautifully finished with rich, local Laurel hardwood and anchored by a custom Spanish-style chandelier. Numerous other handcrafted features, reflecting Spanish craftsmanship, further enhance the home’s distinct character. Most of the kitchen cabinets, counters and dining island are constructed in a local cedar species, harder than western red cedar with warm tones. This wood is tastefully used in the hand made furniture and furnishings and the ensuite walk-in closet that has built in shelving and dressers for all your wardrobe. All furnishings are included with this property. An octagon theme is present in the custom built dining room table, with a hand made spinning plater in the middle, so you can easily pass the gallo pinto. Costa Rican bird and flower art is imprinted onto the glass shower enclosures. High end appliances, and all kitchen items are included. A drop down column suspends a large wine glass holder over the custom island, making it easy to serve a glass of your favourite beverage.
