Name: San Rafael Luxury Farmhouse for Sale | $1,595,000
Creator: Le Figaro Properties

La Joya Estate is one of the most compelling luxury mountain residences in Costa Rica, located in the prestigious highlands of San Rafael de Heredia. Conceived as a private sanctuary, this exceptional estate combines architectural sophistication, absolute privacy, expansive usable land, and guaranteed panoramic views of the Central Valley, positioning it among the most attractive mountain homes in the country.
The estate is offered primarily as a complete property, integrating two adjoining parcels that together total over 18,000 square meters of predominantly usable and impeccably maintained land, equivalent to approximately 4.45 acres. This rare configuration ensures permanent control of the surrounding environment, long-term protection of scenic views, and a level of privacy increasingly sought after by discerning buyers. The generous land component also allows for future expansions or customized projects without compromising the estate’s exclusivity.
The main parcel spans 9,576 square meters, approximately 2.37 acres, and features a total construction area of 788 square meters. The primary residence showcases a refined architectural concept that blends contemporary lines with timeless materials, including almond wood beams, gavilán wood ceilings, and fine cenizaro and cedar finishes. The home offers a spacious primary suite with a private office and direct access to the outdoor terrace, three secondary bedrooms, four full bathrooms, and two half-bathrooms. A separate secondary house with three bedrooms and two bathrooms, along with an independent workshop, complements the estate and adds versatility for guests, staff, or additional uses.
The adjoining parcel measures 8,738 square meters, approximately 2.16 acres, significantly enhancing the estate’s long-term potential and allowing for additional guest residences, wellness areas, gardens, or customized amenities, all while preserving privacy and uninterrupted views.
Beyond the residence itself, La Joya Estate offers an outstanding mountain lifestyle experience. Its proximity to renowned outdoor destinations such as Cerro Dantas, El Bosque de la Hoja, and Monte de la Cruz places the property at the center of some of the Central Valley’s most desirable areas for hiking, mountain biking, and rural mountain tourism, enhancing both quality of life and long-term desirability.
The estate is located within Residencial La Joya, an exclusive gated community of only six properties with owner-controlled access, providing exceptional security and discretion. Its location offers remarkable convenience, situated less than 25 minutes from downtown Heredia and under one hour from Juan Santamaría International Airport, with access to a wide range of commercial, dining, educational, and essential services. The year-round mild climate, fresh mountain air, and surrounding natural beauty further elevate the living experience.
Recent luxury hospitality developments in the area, including the upcoming opening of a high-end Hilton-branded hotel in the historic former Hotel La Condesa, reinforce the region’s upward trajectory and support long-term value appreciation.
Alternatively, the main parcel of 9,576 square meters (approximately 2.37 acres), including the primary residence, secondary house, and workshop, is available for purchase independently at a price of USD $1,271,000. However, the full vision, scale, and long-term value of La Joya Estate are best realized through ownership of the complete estate.
