El Castillo de Esparza - A Historic Legacy Estate with European Aristocratic Provenance Price: US$ 2,450,000 10 Bedrooms | 10 Bathrooms | 4,300 m² Construction | 16,099 m² Land There are luxury properties, and then there are properties with a story. El Castillo de Esparza belongs to the latter. Located in Costa Rica's Central Pacific region, this extraordinary estate represents a rare opportunity to acquire not only a remarkable property, but a piece of documented history. Originally commissioned and owned by Condesa Nina de Baillet Latour, widow of Count Alfred de Baillet Latour, the estate carries a direct connection to one of Europe's most distinguished noble families. The Baillet Latour lineage dates back more than three centuries and includes military leaders, governors, senators, diplomats, and Henri de Baillet Latour, former President of the International Olympic Committee. The Countess made Costa Rica her home and created El Castillo de Esparza as a private residence where European elegance and Costa Rican natural beauty would coexist in perfect harmony. The estate remains a reflection of that vision today. Offered turnkey, the property includes furniture, decorative pieces, and personal elements brought from Europe by the Countess herself, creating a level of authenticity and provenance rarely found in the Costa Rican luxury market. Beyond its historical significance, El Castillo de Esparza is an estate of exceptional scale and versatility. Encompassing more than 4,300 square meters of construction on over 16,000 square meters of beautifully landscaped grounds, the property was designed for hospitality, entertaining, and multigenerational living. Grand reception areas, guest accommodations, event spaces, gardens, and recreational amenities create an environment capable of accommodating a wide range of uses while preserving its residential character. The estate can continue its legacy as a private family compound, while also offering potential as a boutique hotel, wellness retreat, executive retreat center, members club, cultural venue, or hospitality destination. What makes El Castillo de Esparza truly exceptional is its ability to combine history with opportunity. Many luxury estates offer size. Others offer location. Very few offer a documented story, European aristocratic provenance, turnkey authenticity, and the flexibility to shape the next chapter of their legacy. For the buyer who values heritage as much as architecture, opportunities of this nature are extraordinarily rare. El Castillo de Esparza is more than a property. It is a legacy waiting for its next steward. Property Highlights • Historic estate originally owned by Condesa Nina de Baillet Latour • Documented connection to the Baillet Latour family of Belgium • Offered fully furnished with select pieces brought from Europe by the Countess • 4,300 m² of construction on 16,099 m² of land • Ten bedrooms and ten bathrooms • Exceptional event and hospitality infrastructure • Suitable for private residential, hospitality, wellness, or club use • Located within convenient reach of Costa Rica's Central Pacific attractions Exclusive Representation: Luxury Living Costa Rica | Forbes Global Properties

House with terrace Escobal (Costa Rica)
The Atenas Estate A Bali-Inspired Private Resort Featured in Architectural Digest Some properties are built. This one was composed. The Atenas Estate is a private residence of a kind rarely seen in Costa Rica featured in Architectural Digest, and crafted with materials sourced directly from Indonesia and the Far East. This is not a tropical home with imported accents. It is an Indonesian-inspired retreat sitting on 1.75 acres just beyond the Central Valley, where Atenas delivers its famously temperate microclimate, mountain views, a lagoon-style saltwater pool, and air so consistent it requires neither air conditioning nor heating, ever. The materials alone set this property apart. Hand-carved hardwood doors, Balinese decorative panels, and intricately detailed brackets were brought directly from Indonesia not as decorative afterthoughts, but as the architectural language of the home itself. Inside, soaring wood-beam ceilings frame wall-to-wall sliding glass doors that dissolve the boundary between interior and garden. Every room on the main level opens onto its own private covered terrace, where the sound of tropical birds replaces any need for background music. The kitchen is built for someone who cooks seriously rich hardwood cabinetry, a walk-in pantry, and generous workspace that flows directly into a dining room anchored by a live-edge Guanacaste wood table seating twelve. This is a home that was designed to host, and every proportion confirms it. The master suite occupies the entire upper north wing: dual en-suite bathrooms, dual walk-in closets, a dedicated home office, and a private covered terrace with mountain and garden views that will permanently reset your idea of what a morning can feel like. Two guest suites on the lower level each have private bathrooms and their own terraces complete privacy for visitors without sacrificing the resort atmosphere that runs throughout the property. Beyond the lagoon-style saltwater pool, a covered rancho captures the long valley views. A large auxiliary space, already plumbed with a private bathroom, converts naturally into staff quarters, a caretaker casita, a studio, or a workshop the infrastructure is already there. The Atenas Estate represents a rare convergence of architectural provenance, artisan craftsmanship, and one of the most livable climates in the Western Hemisphere. Properties with this level of finish and this story do not return to market often. When they do, they do not wait.
