Hacienda Los Reyes is surfacing as the go-to community for families who seek a residential community that combines a sense of authenticity, security, exclusivity yet simplicity. Unlike many of the more pretentious gated communities in Escazu and Santa Ana, Hacienda Los Reyes was designed to create a more rural, country club lifestyle boasting ample green space, wide streets, sports complexes including a polo field, tennis courts, swimming pool, and a 9 hole golf course. Families here enjoy the proximity to the western suburbs while taking advantage of a lifestyle that is a comfortable slower pace. Recent growth has created even more immediate conveniences including the neighboring AutoMercado, pharmacy, and restaurants, as well as a newly inaugurated bilingual, GSD International School. This contemporary new home was recently finished in January 2021 and coming to market by its owners who are making a lifestyle change paving the way to ownership for a fortunate family who wishes to benefit from their vision. The US owners conceptually designed, created, and constructed this custom home sparing no expense in craftsmanship or detail boasting top quality from floor to ceiling throughout. The lot was carefully selected due to its location with the sub community of Las Vueltas, where a true sense of neighborhood has been created, and more importantly, the lot abuts to a dedicated green zone behind the home ensuring long term privacy and space. The sense of arrival sets the tone for what you will find inside as the contemporary, yet subdued exterior accented by the oversized large solid wood front door parallels the sleek, yet warm tones of the residence. Designed by and for a family, yet with a clear focus on entertaining. There is an open-air feeling to the home with a tremendous amount of natural light and cross ventilation of airflow. As you enter the home, you are greeted in a foyer that seamlessness meshes elegance with a cozy sense of home. The floor plan splits at this moment, to the left towards the stairs heading to the private areas, and around the foyer to enter the social areas. The open kitchen floor immediately grabs your attention, with an impressive island as the focal point, and imported Spanish cabinets with BLUM hardware, built-in down lighting, Laminam ceramic counters with full height backsplash making for a distinctive taste of luxury. There are pop-up chargers within the counters for easy access to charge cell phones, plug-in blenders, or other kitchen appliances that need electricity. For large entertaining or even everyday family living there are two ultra-quiet KitchenAid dishwashers found in the center island. The other details include Kitchenaid 36” induction cooktop, Frigidaire Twins fridge/freezer, Frigidaire Gallery oven/microwave, imported Kraus oversized sink with catch-all basket, pull down faucet as well as drinking water filter in kitchen sink. The chef’s kitchen looks out onto the outside BBQ/wet bar and living room area connected by floor to ceiling Europa sliding doors allowing for a continuous flow from inside to outside living. The extra tall ceilings are beautifully complimented by Imported Minka 84” blade fans with 5 settings both inside and outside. The lighting is all imported LED lighting with a theater feature and the outdoor wet bar hosts the same imported cabinetry as the kitchen and is complemented with a beautiful imported Quartz countertop. In addition to the entryway and kitchen, the main floor of the home hosts the living room, dining room, office, half bath, and a sitting area under the stairs which can be used for a variety of things. The 4th bedroom and office area can be completely closed off as a mother in law suite or for growing teenagers who need some extra space and privacy. There are also the full maids' quarters with a full bathroom and laundry room with imported Samsung W/D and Quartz counters all found off the garage for extra privacy. Furthermore, just off the outdoor terrace, you will find a one-bedroom, fully equipped, 40 square meters encompassing guest suite with ensuite bathroom, bedroom, and kitchenette as well as washer dryer, AC, and separate water heater making an ideal space for out of town guests, family or studio. There is a side entrance from the front of the property to allow for extra privacy in the home. The stairs that lead up to the second floor are tastefully designed with wood to add a natural touch. There are also large windows to welcome abundant natural light.
