Jardin de Serenità

Nestled in a serene landscape, this Tuscan-style home, designed by the architect Luis Dobles Vilela, is a poetic embodiment of romantic allure reminiscent of Italian and French countrysides. Celebrating 20 years of architectural grace, this property stands as a beacon of unique charm and timeless design.
Upon entering, guests are greeted by a vestibule adorned with wooden beams from historic estates, meticulously integrated to showcase their intricate details. The residence’s floors, crafted on-site with marble dust, echo the bespoke artistry that defines every corner of this home. It's a space where every element, from the warm wooden textures to the handcrafted mollejon, tells a story of refined elegance.
The heart of the home, a spacious living area, unfolds as a sanctuary of tranquility. Here, a panoramic bay window frames the lush gardens, inviting the dance of morning light and the serene spectacle of birds in flight. The main living spaces, inclusive of a tea area, principal lounge, and dining room, are harmoniously connected, enriched by an integrated sound system, offering an immersive experience of luxury and comfort.
Every piece of furniture, an antique treasure of exquisite quality, along with the selectively curated European lamps, speaks volumes of the home’s grandeur and can be acquired is a separate package to maintain its legacy. The broad corridors lead to a multifunctional service area upstairs, featuring Doninelli-tiled floors and a generously spaced service quarter with fine finishes, a cozy sitting area, and an expansive laundry space.
The Provencal-style gardens, designed by Mere Chinchilla, envelop the home in a tapestry of floral elegance, while the kitchen, a chef’s dream, boasts a unique Brazilian marble countertop and a mollejon-accented breakfast nook. The kitchen terrace offers an idyllic setting for family meals, embraced by the beauty of the gardens.
A family TV room with solid almond wood flooring and a gas fireplace by Donineli serves as a warm gathering space. The built-in cedar furniture from Sarchi adds to the home's bespoke charm. The external fountains, also by Donineli, and the large under-stair storage, complement the home’s thoughtful design.
The master bedroom, a haven of tranquility, features almond wood flooring, a private terrace with garden access, and a luxurious en-suite bathroom with marble finishes. Two additional spacious bedrooms, each with en-suite Jack and Jill bathrooms, offer garden views and embody the home’s pervasive sense of peace.
The property is crowned with a high-ceilinged office or 4th bedroom and a versatile top-floor space, boasting almond floors, ornate wood-beamed ceilings, and a balcony with breathtaking views of Zurqui, the gardens, and the valley’s sunset-kissed mountains. This space has a full bathroom.

Located conveniently with swift access to highway 32, the home promises easy connectivity to San José, Escazu, and the serene beaches of both the Caribbean and Pacific, each just a few hours away.
