Koi Peace Home @ Lakota

Koi Peace Home at Lakota is a country style residence designed to feel fresh, open, and closely connected to its natural surroundings. Located in Lakota, a private community in the mountains of San Ramón de Tres Ríos, east of Costa Rica’s Central Valley, the home combines a more tranquil setting with practical access to San José. Its mostly single level layout, open interior composition, and strong relationship to gardens and natural light give the property a calm and livable character from the outset.

From the exterior, the home presents a warm and welcoming feel, with a front garden, covered parking for two vehicles, and architectural details that introduce its design language early on. Once inside, the sense of openness becomes more apparent. A covered interior garden with transparent roof panels brings daylight into the center of the home and helps connect the different spaces in a natural way. Arched openings repeat throughout the interior, softening transitions and giving the home a distinct personality while maintaining privacy in the more private areas.

One of the home’s most memorable features appears just off the main circulation area, where a water feature flows toward a koi pond integrated into the interior design. This element is framed by indoor greenery, skylit areas, and changes in level that add depth and movement to the home. The living and dining areas gather naturally around this feature, creating a social setting that feels both open and intimate.

Exposed wood beams, a fireplace, generous ceiling height, and direct access to the covered terrace and garden reinforce the home’s relaxed and grounded atmosphere.

The kitchen is independent and spacious, with double access, wood cabinetry, granite countertops, and a central island. It also offers broad work surfaces, generous storage, and a breakfast area positioned beside large windows with garden views, which gives the space a pleasant everyday feel.

The private area is set behind the interior garden for greater quiet and separation. At its center is a television room with high ceilings, and from there the bedroom wing is arranged with a thoughtful sense of privacy. One secondary bedroom includes a mezzanine and full bathroom, while the other offers a walk-in closet and private bathroom. The primary suite is especially distinctive, with access to a deck, an outdoor jacuzzi, direct connection to the garden, and a bathroom with a large window facing greenery.

Lakota is an exclusive residential private community with only 19 fully detached homes, offering a more private living environment in the cooler mountain setting of San Ramón de Tres Ríos. Set east of the Central Valley and just minutes from San José, this area is valued for its natural surroundings, peaceful atmosphere, and practical connection to the capital. Residents enjoy 24/7 security, controlled access, a clubhouse, pool, tennis court, children’s play area, walking trails, two soccer fields, and a multipurpose hall. For buyers who value privacy, a natural setting, and a home with a distinct architectural identity, Koi Peace Home offers a thoughtful balance of warmth, openness, and everyday comfort.
