About this property

Located in the upper, more residential area of Barrio Escalante, this property stands out for its size, which is becoming increasingly rare in San José. The residence is situated on a 1,353 m² lot and features 730 m² of construction. It harmoniously combines space, architecture, and a unique interaction with light and greenery. A tropical atrium, complete with palms and a retractable roof, allows the house to connect with the sky. The spiral staircase serves as a sculptural focal point, while arched windows provide views of the garden. A pool, surrounded by mature greenery, is accessible from the living areas. The home includes five bedrooms and four and a half bathrooms, along with ample social spaces designed for entertaining and private enjoyment. The ground floor seamlessly connects open living areas, the garden, and the interior atrium, while the upper floor is dedicated to private quarters, offering tranquility and space. This part of Escalante is not known for its nightlife; instead, it offers a more residential lifestyle with dining, art, and walkability nearby, all within a sheltered and primarily residential environment. More than just a house in Escalante, this property possesses a unique presence — spacious, green, private, and challenging to find in the current neighborhood inventory. It is ideal for those who appreciate architectural character, ample space, and urban living without sacrificing the serenity of a residential home.
