This exquisite residence, constructed in 2019, boasts 500 square meters (5,381 square feet) of living
space on a generous 1,500 square meter (16,145 square feet) lot. Embracing the natural beauty of its
surroundings, this home features multiple terraces and balconies adorned with expansive French doors
that beckon the refreshing mountain breezes from the nearby ridge. From these vantage points, you can
revel in sweeping vistas of the adjacent coffee plantation and the verdant tapestry of trees.
The interior of this residence is a testament to sophistication and comfort. With four bedrooms and 5.5
baths, the grand entrance welcomes you with a capacious foyer that leads to a stunning open-air
courtyard. The main level of the home showcases two bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms, a
spacious kitchen complete with granite countertops, custom cabinetry, and a sizable island. A dining
area that can easily accommodate a 10-seat dining table. The 17-foot vaulted ceilings create an
expansive ambiance, and adjacent to the kitchen is a beautiful living room graced with French doors that
open to a picturesque balcony.
The primary bedroom is a sanctuary of luxury, featuring an en suite bathroom with double sinks, a
capacious walk-in shower adorned with ceramic tiles, and lofty 11-foot vaulted ceilings. Each of the main
floor bedrooms enjoys the convenience of an en suite bathroom. A veranda with wrought iron railings
extends from the primary bedroom and living area, providing access to the lower level. Descending
through steel doors and wrought iron and wood staircase, you'll discover a vast room measuring 20x29 feet with
a full bathroom, which can serve as a studio apartment or an additional bedroom. The current owners
have converted it into a game room and recreation space. Two immense steel doors open to the
terraced backyard and a charming fire pit area, while a covered three-car carport provides secure
parking. The laundry room is located on the main floor.
The third floor of this remarkable home presents a fully independent two-bedroom, two-bathroom
apartment with its own entrance. This separate living space includes a private balcony off the living
room and kitchen area, a primary bedroom with an en suite bathroom, and a dedicated laundry room.
The home is constructed from sturdy masonry blocks, boasting luxury
finishes throughout.
The terraced backyard gently descends to the border of the coffee plantation and lush trees, offering
ample space for the addition of a pool or spa area. Partial furnishings are included in the sale, with the
possibility of further negotiation. Plumbing for the home is supplied by city water sourced directly from
mountain springs, and it utilizes a septic system. The roof features durable tile, and a solar power water
heater enhances energy efficiency.
An additional deck could be seamlessly incorporated into the living room's original ceiling design, which was initially intended for this purpose and was approved in the original blueprints. The homeowners, however, opted to extend the structure, resulting in a roof overhanging the terrace. This space could readily be transformed into an observatory deck, offering breathtaking vistas of Costa Rica's central valley.
Situated within the upscale, gated community of Las Macadamias, this property enjoys the benefits of a
$95.00 monthly HOA fee, which covers grounds maintenance for communal areas, 24/7 gate guard
services, trash pickup, and access to a playground. This is a unique opportunity to experience the
paradise of Alajuela, Costa Rica. The property is conveniently located just a 9-minute drive from
Starbucks Hacienda Alsacia, a renowned 240-hectare coffee farm that serves as Starbucks global
agronomy headquarters and offers fascinating coffee plantation tours. Additionally, it is only 20 minutes
from the Juan Santamaria International Airport (San Jose), 45 minutes from the La Paz Waterfalls, and
38 minutes from the POAS Volcano National Park. Alajuela's elevated location provides a delightful
climate with annual temperatures ranging from 65°F to 85°F, making it an ideal place to call home.
