This lovely gem is a unique and colorful custom-built home, situated in a virtually hidden Expatriate community of neighbors in the friendly rural town of Grifo Alto. Grifo Alto means ‘tall tap’ or high faucet of spring water and is said to offer some of the purest water in Costa Rica. Although located in the mountains, it’s only a one-minute drive to shop at one of three small stores which stock many basic necessities and offer friendly locals to assist. The house rests high in the cloud forest mountains of Puriscal where the sound of nature constantly calls, coupled with some of the most majestic views to be witnessed, this house is waiting to be discovered by someone lucky enough to own it.

Through the private electronic iron gate of this open concept custom design, you’re greeted with an imaginatively colorful home, incredible tropical landscape, and distinctive double front doors bordered with decorative tiles. Throughout the home, white cabinets are custom built in Shaker design. Specific to the kitchen, the designer chose a magnificent exotic blue quartzite countertop mined in Brazil, which covers the lower cabinets, while the large eat-in island supports a beautiful Teak wood slab.

With neutral ‘wood look’ porcelain tile flooring throughout the home, inside and out, the flooring flow offers a cohesive design appearance. From all main rooms, take in the peaceful views of the mountains and the Bay of Nicoya. There are two full bathrooms with custom cabinets, countertops, and sinks with a large rain shower head in the master shower. Both showers are nice-sized with no thresholds for roll-in entry, which allows aging in place, should a wheelchair be necessary. With two walk-in closets, unusual for a home in Costa Rica, both closets have fans with lighting kits, coupled with two in-floor drains for dehumidifier drainage, these nice touches come in handy for the rainy season.

Loaded with additional conveniences including radiant barrier roof for keeping temperatures pleasant inside, tankless hot water system, silent dishwasher, stainless appliances, and alarm system complete with cameras. A lovely recent addition is a custom above and flanking doorway bookshelf, quite a nice touch for books and collectibles.

Through the ample pantry area / utility room, just off the kitchen is a door leading to a fenced grassy yard for pets.
Bonused with amazing tropical plants, banana, orange, almond, and avocado trees, living in this home and enjoying the beautiful butterflies and birds on the private balcony with near perfect year-round temperatures, is quite a blessing. To enjoy the incredible mountain and bay sunsets… you’ll feel this home is quite a paradise!
