Atenas Luxury Home For Sale With 'Spool'

Atenas Luxury Home For Sale With 'Spool' Only US$375K

Costa Rica Realtor Dennis Easters

This beautiful home has been built to American Standards with many extras.  Located adjacent to a national forest, Cerros de Atenas, you can enjoy abundant wildlife, including toucans, hummingbirds, butterflies and the occasional sloth or troop of monkeys.

This secure, gated development, called Lomas del Paraiso, is only two kilometers from center Atenas, but feels like its own private country paradise. Conveniently located just a short 20 minute drive to the Juan Santa Maria International Airport in Alajuela, 20 minutes from Escazu on the new San Jose/Caldera Highway and 45 minutes from the Pacific beaches.

The main house features 3,350 square feet, 2 large bedroom suites and an open floor plan with vaulted hardwood ceilings. The bedrooms have huge walk-in closets with attic access in the master for storage. The master bath includes two vessel sinks with mirrors, storage closets, make-up vanity, soaking tub and outside garden shower.  

A gourmet kitchen features an 11 foot long by 4 foot wide island, topped with an amazing piece of Brazilian granite including back-splashes, deep-heavy gauge metal sink with European faucet and sprayer, built in convection oven, five burner gas cooktop, microwave, dishwasher, garbage disposal, custom hardwoood (cedar) cabinetry, and the "piece de resistance" commercial sized wall refrigerator and freezer.  

A wrap around patio spans the entire front side of the house, allowing for optimal views of the adjacent preserve, mountains and canyon.  Part of the patio has been screened-in to allow outdoor dining. Perfect for dinning 'al fresco'!  An attached double car carport finishes off the main house.

The home is situated on a large lot which measures 8,913.59 m2.

There are three "on demand" hot water heaters, top of the line indoor-outdoor ceiling fans in every room, front-loading washer and dryer in the main house laundry room (which has a folding counter and double sink).

The huge walk-in pantry off the kitchen is lined with teak shelving for all of your storage needs. There is even a built-in wall safe. All the windows are low maintenance aluminum sliders with screens.  

The present owners added a gas hot water system, dryer, and range. This provides gas efficiency with an electrical backup systems for hot water, which is not available in most homes in Costa Rica. The house has also been re-wired to conform to american building standards.

An additional large bodega (10 x 16) offers additional storage.

The "spool" (bigger than a spa/smaller than a pool) is 3m by 3m with solar heating, jets, salt system, negative edge and a monkey fountain statue, add that special touch!  Fully landscaped grounds including automatic underground sprinkler system, lighting and beautiful flowers and plants.  

The main house features 3,350 square feet, 2 large bedroom suites and an open floor plan with vaulted hardwood ceilings.

There is a complete security system including permiter laser beam security and gated entry with phone line communication and is located in a very secure area.  A 2006 Honda CRV and some furnishings are also available to be negotiated into the price.  

I believe this is a very attractive offer for a luxury Atenas home that would normally be priced about US$75,000 higher and, the owner will 'consider' owner financing from qualified buyers.
