20090 The Cedars Residence | Luxury Coffee Estate For Sale In Costa Rica

Residencia Los Cedros

Nestled among the lush mountains of San Isidro de Alajuela, where the high-altitude climate, fertile volcanic soils, and Costa Rica’s renowned coffee-growing tradition converge, Residencia Los Cedros is one of the country’s most extraordinary private properties. More than just a distinguished luxury residence, it is a legacy estate where architecture, nature, agricultural tradition, and a refined lifestyle have evolved in perfect harmony over decades to create a legacy of exceptional character and enduring value.

Located at approximately 1,400 meters above sea level, the property enjoys one of Costa Rica’s most privileged mountain climates. Each morning begins with the sunrise over the Irazú and Barva volcanoes, while at dusk, the lights of the Central Valley illuminate the horizon from San José to the surrounding mountains. The imposing Poás Volcano completes this extraordinary natural setting, offering a landscape that elegantly transforms throughout the day and each season.

Upon arrival, the property exudes a sense of privacy and distinction from the very first moment. A private entrance with an automatic gate, flanked by majestic royal palms and a charming vineyard, leads through meticulously landscaped gardens to reveal the main residence. The estate is not immediately apparent, but rather unfolds gradually, allowing each stroll to express serenity, permanence, and elegance.

Designed by a renowned Costa Rican architecture firm, the main residence was conceived to blend seamlessly with its surroundings. Expansive social areas, soaring ceilings, fine finishes in exotic woods, and generous covered terraces allow the landscape to become an integral part of every space. Each room was carefully oriented to take advantage of natural light, the pleasant mountain breeze, and the spectacular panoramic views.

The main residence offers three bedrooms, including an elegant master suite with a private terrace, a spacious walk-in closet, and a refined en-suite bathroom. Two additional bedrooms share a full bathroom, creating an ideal layout for family life without sacrificing privacy or comfort.

Beyond the main residence, the property unfolds as a meticulously planned private residential complex. Two separate guest houses, each with two bedrooms, offer exceptional accommodation for family and visitors. At the entrance to the property, two separate one-bedroom apartments provide ideal spaces for administrative staff, estate managers, security personnel, or additional guests. In total, the estate offers nine bedrooms distributed among several separate buildings, comfortably accommodating multiple generations of a family or groups of guests while maintaining everyone’s privacy.

The recreational and equestrian facilities further enhance the character of the property. A spacious, fully enclosed event hall was designed for private celebrations and high-level social gatherings, while the equestrian complex features four stables, a training arena, and a large winery that supports both equestrian activities and the estate’s agricultural operations.

Throughout the property, organic gardens, fruit orchards, mature trees, a vineyard, and an immaculate gourmet coffee plantation create a landscape that combines beauty and productivity. Here, agriculture is not merely a use of the land, but an expression of a lifestyle deeply rooted in Costa Rican agricultural tradition. Located in one of the country’s most prestigious coffee-growing regions, the property offers the privilege of producing high-altitude Arabica coffee while enjoying one of Costa Rica’s most renowned coffee landscapes.

Despite its exceptional privacy, the property boasts a prime location. Situated just fifteen minutes from Juan Santamaría International Airport and along the scenic route to Poás Volcano, it combines the tranquility of the natural surroundings with quick access to San José, international schools, restaurants, and all the amenities of the Central Valley.

The estate’s infrastructure further enhances its extraordinary heritage value. Expansive internal roads, underground utilities, meticulously landscaped gardens, agricultural facilities, and a substantial road frontage provide flexibility for future generations. Whether envisioned as a distinguished family residence, an equestrian property, an exclusive wellness retreat, a boutique hospitality destination, or simply one of Costa Rica’s most remarkable mountain residences, Residencia Los Cedros offers an exceptional level of versatility within the luxury real estate market.

Properties of this nature are increasingly rare. Residencia Los Cedros is not defined by a single feature, but rather by the harmony between its architecture, the landscape, privacy, and the purpose for which it was conceived. It is a place where true luxury is expressed through authenticity, environmental stewardship, and a profound connection to the land, giving life to a legacy destined to endure for generations.
