This amazing equestrian estate is located in Heredia, Costa Rica, neighboring Cariari Golf and Country Club, and only 15 minutes away from Juan Santamaria International Airport. Located in a friendly residential area, this one-of-a-kind residence sits on the highest part of the property and has panoramic views to Cariari Golf & County Club along with mountain views of the southern and northern part of San Jose. The main house measuring 15,715f square feet, is surrounded by manicured landscaping that includes plants and trees native to the area, and provides a cozy experience when touring the property. The guardian/handyman house measures 1.400 square feet so that allows for confortable accomodations for them too. This tasteful colonial jewel was designed by Costa Rican architect Ronald Zurcher, who has been positioned as the top colonial designer in the region. Part of his work and "claim to fame" are the hotels Costa Rica Marriott Hotel, which is a city/corporate hotel surrounded by coffee plantations and amazing landscaping, and Los Suenos Marriott Golf and Beach Resort, home to a marina and golf course. This three-story home includes 4 bedrooms, all with full bathrooms, an apartment fully equipped, salt water heated swimming pool, an equestrian center, a cozy family room and all the must-haves of a colonial luxury estate; garage for three vehicles, and enough space for twenty or more along the rest of the property whenever you have any social or equestrian event. The equestrian center includes fifteen stables, six small corrals, two apartments, a warehouse, an outdoor horse arena measuring 8,000ft, and an indoor Olympic horse arena measuring 12,916ft. The whole estate including main house, equestrian facility and the rest of the landscape rest in 5 acres. Another unique feature of this property is that, being adjacent to Cariari Golf and Country Club, it has a fairway view into the 8th hole of the course, and a small gate which gives it direct access to the golf course through it. Moreover, the main terrace/patio has a great view to the landscape, including a high-end sculpture by Costa Rican artist Jorge Jimenez Deredia. Costa Rica has been characterized for having an average temperature of 70 F to 81 F. Due to its proximity to the equator, it has no real summer or winter. It does however have a rainy season from May to November. This unique colonial gem does not have a comparison in Costa Rica, a country not only known for its paradise-like beaches and lush rainforests, but also for being a regional leader in literacy, state-funded medical coverage and private practices, pleasant weather all year round and thriving economy: perfect to raise a family. Located only a two-hour flight away from Miami and three-and-a-half hours to Dallas, this house is the best choice if you want to have a great quality of life with your family, while living in a country club, equestrian-estate, naturalist and peaceful atmosphere. Lay back and enjoy Costa Rica at its fullest in this equestrian estate!
