Description
Casa Aquarium is a stunning luxury residence designed by renowned architect Jeffry Muñoz Chaves, located in the serene community of Santiago de San Ramón. This two-story modern home showcases minimalist elegance and sophisticated design, with expansive common areas on the ground floor and three generously appointed bedrooms on the upper level. The property's most distinctive feature is its extraordinary living aquarium filled with vibrant live corals—a true work of art that creates an immersive experience reminiscent of exploring the ocean floor. Natural light floods throughout the residence, highlighting the quality finishes and open-plan architecture. The ground floor includes a gourmet kitchen with a large central island, formal dining room, and a master suite with ensuite bathroom and walk-in closet. Two secondary bedrooms share a well-appointed guest bathroom. A spectacular terrace captures panoramic views of both the ocean and mountains, ideal for entertaining or peaceful contemplation. Additional features include a dedicated laundry area, three-car garage, and extensive green spaces perfect for outdoor living and pets. The entire property is secured with a closed perimeter and electric fence, ensuring privacy and safety. Set on a generous 1.7-hectare lot, the home is surrounded by lush gardens that enhance its tranquil mountain setting. Location & Lifestyle: The property sits in the Empalme neighborhood, just 10 minutes from San Ramón's city center, where residents enjoy access to banks, hospital, medical services, restaurants, supermarkets, and schools, including the prestigious Universidad de Costa Rica (UCR). The expatriate community nearby offers a private club for sports, recreation, and social engagement. This elevated region benefits from one of the world's most pleasant climates, with temperate days and cool evenings year-round. Strategic connectivity is a major advantage: Juan Santamaría International Airport is 50 minutes away, San José is one hour distant, and the thermal spa resort region of Arenal can be reached in two hours.
