| Full Description: Pinares; Curridabat (East-side San Jose) - This is a wonderful, 4,300-ft2 (400-m2) house with swimming pool and sauna in a great area. The house has a total of FOUR bedrooms. 1) The master bedroom is located upstairs and has it's own large bath (with tub and separate shower), walk-in closet and attached study (office, sewing room, etc.). 2 & 3) Two other bedrooms are located on the first floor within the main part of the house. One has its own private bath, while the other uses a bath just outside its door. 4) A fourth bedroom with bath (or guest room or office) is located within a separate structure by the swimming pool.
As you enter the house, you cross over a bridge with a fountain to one side, which gives you a wonderful, peaceful feel as you enter. The main part of the house also has an "L"-shaped living room (looking out to the pool area), a separate dining room, a cozy family/TV area with fireplace and adjoining library (or office), and an awesome kitchen with island and breakfast area.
In the back is a large covered terrace with BBQ area by the swimming pool. In a separate structure by the pool is another bedroom (as mentioned above), a large wood-fired sauna, laundry area, and pump room. At one time, the laundry area also had a maid's room. The current owner now uses it as a storage/work area, but it could be maid into a maid's room again, if desired. There is also a nice green area by the pool.
The house is very well built, with lots of nice features, solid doors and gorgeous hardwood throughout. The master bedroom has Almendro (almond) wood on both the floor and ceiling. The floor in the corridor and dining room are Cristobal wood (which you can’t buy anymore). The rest of the wood is Cedro. Other areas of the house have a stone-tile floor.
The home is very secure, with ADT security service as well as its own closed-circuit TV monitor system. And the front of the house is all walled (with electric garage opener).
The house is located in a fantastic area. It's an upscale neighborhood, home to Ambassadors' residences as well as a former President. It's located very close to good shopping, restaurants, schools, etc., and has easy access to the highway. And the climate is excellent (72º F, or 22º C, nearly every day year-round).
