Villa Monteluna

Villa Monteluna, a rare European-inspired villa offering privacy, scale, and panoramic valley views just minutes from the best services in the Central Valley.

Set high in the mountains of Santa Ana within an exclusive gated enclave of only a few estates, this remarkable Italian-inspired residence offers a rare blend of architectural character, privacy, land, and proximity to the finest amenities of the Central Valley. This 970 m² residence features 3 levels, 4+ bedrooms, executive office, terraces with panoramic valley views, guest/staff house, guardhouse, and expansive gardens. Prime location minutes from Escazú, top schools, and first-class services.

Situated on a one-hectare property surrounded by mature trees, gardens, and natural landscape, the estate captures sweeping mountain and valley views while maintaining complete tranquility a combination increasingly difficult to find in this prime location.

With approximately 970 m² (10,437 sq. ft.) of construction across three levels, the home was designed with classical European influence and built with advanced anti-seismic engineering that exceeds Costa Rican standards. Its reinforced steel structure and specialized construction provide exceptional durability and long-term peace of mind.

Arrival is both elegant and memorable. A private entrance with artisan wrought-iron gate leads across a charming bridge and into a stately driveway framed by lush greenery, opening to a grand residence crowned by its distinctive campanile dome a signature architectural element rarely seen in Costa Rica.
