The Mountain House with Spectacular Views in San Antonio

Set in one of Escazú’s highest and most peaceful areas, The Mountain House offers complete privacy within a natural setting. Surrounded by mature gardens, this spacious home features a large, multifunctional terrace with sweeping views, an eclectic design that blends modern concrete with warm exposed wood, and a main living room with soaring ceilings and a cozy fireplace. It is located within a gated property shared with a few other well-separated homes, ensuring both security and tranquility. San Antonio de Escazú offers the perfect balance of mountain living and proximity to all urban conveniences in the west side of San José.

Access to The Mountain House is via a private electric gate, leading to a cluster of independent residences. Inside, the home blends modern materials with warm architectural touches, such as high wooden ceilings and expansive windows. The open-concept living and dining area is filled with natural light, with floor-to-ceiling windows framing views of the surrounding greenery and sky. The fireplace at the center adds warmth and charm, especially on San Antonio’s cool mountain evenings.

The home’s social heart is the covered terrace, accessed through large glass doors from the living area. This inviting space includes a lounge, outdoor dining area, billiard table, and barbecue zone, ideal for enjoying panoramic views of the city and surrounding mountains.

The kitchen, located next to the main dining room, features a large island with dark granite countertops and direct access to a breakfast nook that also connects to the terrace. This area includes an informal dining space, pantry, guest half-bath, laundry room, storage, and maid’s quarters with full bathroom.

On the opposite end of the house, the private wing includes a family room that opens onto another terrace. There are four bedrooms in total: two share a bathroom, one has its own en-suite, and the primary suite offers corner windows with open views and abundant natural light. The en-suite master bathroom includes a jacuzzi tub, and the large walk-in closet connects to a private gym space with a half-bath, which can also be accessed from the garden.

The property features two covered double garages, plus ample additional parking. Located on the slopes of the Escazú Mountains, San Antonio enjoys a cooler year-round climate and a peaceful rural character, while still being just minutes from Escazú’s town center, home to upscale restaurants, shopping, private hospitals, and international schools. The area is also known for its access to nature trails and lookout points.

The Mountain House is ideal for those seeking space, privacy, and a strong connection to nature, just minutes away from the best of Escazú.
