The property is at the edge of the cloud forest, high on the
hillside above Escazu, in Alto Carrizal, and overlooking San
Jose and the central valley.  The property is terraced in
four levels, all of which have been extensively landscaped
to create a park-like setting.  The main structures were
built seven years ago, and the construction is all welded
steel frame with concrete walls.  Because of the elevation,
an almost constant breeze keeps the temperatures cooler
then the lower valley.  Heating and cooling is completely
unnecessary. A stream runs along the whole south edge of
the property, and the sound of running water can be heard
for most of the year.  

The property and the neighborhood of Alto Carrizal are
located in the town of Esaczu, 2 miles up the mountainside
overlooking San Jose and the central Valley. The road
from downtown Escazu winds through some “colorful”
barrios which then give way to larger fincas.  A $5 million
mansion is currently under construction just down the road,
plus two more home sites are set to break ground in the
near future.  A tall cane fence hides the property from the
road, and the neighbors are friendly and helpful. Alto
Carrizal is a safe neighborhood and we have had no
problems in years we have been living here.  

The property has its own well with fabulous water, and
cable / high-speed internet.  Each house has its own
driveway and motorized metal gate/porton.  The main
house has an extra guest enterance.  The property has a
total of 4 seperate enterances.

The property is approx. 1.5 miles from Country Day
School, an excellent K-12 international school accredited
by the United States, and to “old” downtown Escazu.
Another mile gets you to the large Multiplaza shopping mall
or the very fine CIMA hospital.

Reason for selling: we are re-locating out of the country.
