Hacienda Imperial Equestrian Estate Nestled within a privileged natural setting, this extraordinary equestrian estate redefines countryside luxury through an impeccable fusion of sophistication, privacy, and contemporary colonial architecture. From the moment one arrives, the residence evokes a rare sense of serenity and grandeur, where every space has been thoughtfully designed to celebrate beauty, nature, and the art of refined living. Its inspiration is drawn from the iconic Patio de los Leones at La Alhambra, creating an atmosphere where water, stone, and light intertwine in timeless harmony. Corridors, gardens, and architectural details recall the charm of classic Mediterranean haciendas while seamlessly blending historic elegance with contemporary comfort. The residence showcases exceptional craftsmanship and noble materials throughout: handcrafted roof tiles from Granada, Nicaragua, natural Roca Azul stone, wrought-iron lighting fixtures, fine cedar wood finishes, and exquisite Guanacaste wood ceilings that bring warmth, authenticity, and character to every room. The freshness of its expansive interiors and the constant connection to nature transform this estate into a true private sanctuary. Designed for elegant entertaining and everyday enjoyment alike, the social areas flow beautifully throughout the home. A spacious dining room connects effortlessly with a spectacular cedar wood kitchen, envisioned as the heart of the residence. Both refined and functional, the kitchen is complemented by an expansive walk-in pantry, offering comfort, organization, and sophistication for intimate family living or grand-scale hosting. Surrounding the elegant central courtyard are four private bedroom suites, each with its own bathroom.

Yet the true soul of the estate reveals itself within its world-class equestrian facilities: ten horse stalls, three corrals, two riding arenas, storage areas, and thoughtfully designed spaces dedicated to both the horses’ wellbeing and the enjoyment of equestrian living. Beyond the infrastructure itself lies something far more meaningful — an emotional connection shaped over generations. Here, the gentle rhythm of horses at sunrise, the quiet bond between rider and animal, and the peaceful experience of watching them move gracefully through gardens and open spaces become part of everyday life. For many years, the estate also welcomed equine therapy experiences, creating deeply meaningful moments for children, families, and visitors who discovered in these magnificent animals a source of healing, confidence, joy, and emotional connection. Every corner of the property holds stories of transformation, heartfelt smiles, and unforgettable experiences shaped by the sensitivity and noble spirit of the horses.

In the upper, more residential part of Barrio Escalante, I am pleased to present a property of a scale that has become increasingly uncommon in this part of San José. Set on a 1,353 m² lot with 730 m² of construction, this residence brings together space, architecture, and a distinctive relationship with light and greenery. A tropical atrium with palms and a retractable roof opens the house to the sky; the spiral staircase stands as a sculptural element; arched windows frame the garden; and a pool framed by mature greenery opens off the living areas. The home features five bedrooms, four and a half bathrooms, and generous social spaces designed for entertaining, gathering, and enjoying in privacy. The ground floor flows between open living areas, garden, and interior atrium, while the upper floor organizes the private quarters with space and calm. This is not the most active or nightlife-driven side of Escalante. It is a more residential way to live the neighborhood: with its dining, art, and walkability close at hand, from a more sheltered and primarily residential setting. More than a house in Escalante, it is a residence with a presence of its own — spacious, green, private, and difficult to replicate within the neighborhood's current inventory. A property for those seeking architectural character, scale, and urban life without giving up the calm of a residential home.
