Elevé Escazú

Elevé Escazú is a contemporary architectural estate set high in the mountains of San Rafael de Escazú, Costa Rica, within a private 24/7 gated community. Positioned on a generous 1,950 m² lot, this two story residence was designed to capture uninterrupted 180 degree views of the city skyline and surrounding mountains from nearly every principal space. The result is a home that balances panoramic scenery, architectural clarity, and proximity to the capital’s most established residential district. The main level is defined by double height ceilings and expansive floor to ceiling glass that frames the landscape in every direction. Living and dining areas connect fluidly, extending toward generous terraces and a private balcony with BBQ area, creating natural settings for both formal entertaining and relaxed evenings overlooking the city lights. Natural materials including stone, fine wood, steel, and glass are integrated with intention, reinforcing the home’s contemporary character. The kitchen serves as both design focal point and functional workspace. Italian cabinetry, quartz countertops, and premium appliances are complemented by a separate prep kitchen that allows seamless hosting while maintaining discretion and organization. Upstairs, three spacious bedrooms each feature en suite bathrooms and walk in closets. Every suite opens directly to a terrace or balcony, ensuring constant connection to the surrounding views. The primary suite offers a more secluded atmosphere, complete with panoramic outlooks, a spa inspired bathroom with freestanding tub, double vanities, and refined finishes designed for daily comfort. The lower level introduces a private lifestyle wing with independent access. Currently arranged as a gym, home theater, game room, and kitchenette with full bathroom, this level can transition into a self contained apartment or extended guest quarters as needed. Complementing the main residence, a detached two bedroom guest house enhances the estate’s versatility, well suited for visitors, multigenerational living, or staff accommodations. Outdoor areas include a city view deck and thoughtfully integrated landscaping, where local wildlife such as sloths, toucans, parrots, and owls are frequently present, reinforcing the connection between architecture and the natural setting. Additional features include premium Kohler fixtures, natural stone and fine wood flooring, smart privacy glass in select bathrooms, an automatic irrigation system, water reserve tank with pump, asphalt shingle roofing, and advanced security systems.
