This impressive two-story home sits on a magnificent, fully usable lot of over 1.7 acres of mostly flat terrain. Atenas Gem is a beautifully renovated two-story residence that blends refined comfort with serene countryside living. Beautiful landscaped gardens, a variety of fruit trees, and several Guanacaste trees define this property, located in Atenas, a peaceful town in the Central Valley of Costa Rica, in the province of Alajuela. It sits about 30 minutes west of San José and just 25 minutes from the Juan Santamaría International Airport. It’s also less than an hour from the Pacific coast, thanks to easy access to Route 27, one of the country's main highways.

The entrance to Atenas Gem makes a statement. A wide automatic gate opens to a long, paved driveway lined with mature landscaping. The home’s façade features two imposing columns and a large front garden that creates the feeling of privacy and peace. Originally built in 2009, the home has been fully renovated with upscale finishes and a thoughtfully modernized design.

The main level of Atenas Gem opens into a spacious social area with open-plan living and dining spaces, framed by large sliding glass doors that extend out to a covered terrace. 

These connections with the outdoors flood the interiors with natural light and offer calming views of the gardens beyond. The kitchen, finished in a thoughtful dark-toned palette, is the most elegant part of the home, with a sleek design and complete with a walk-in pantry and sophisticated cabinetry. This level also includes a large bedroom with an en-suite bathroom and walk-in closet, ideal for guests or multi-generational living.

The garden-facing terrace provides a peaceful environment for everyday enjoyment immersed in a private oasis of nature, while a second outdoor terrace, set beside the pool and surrounded by tropical greenery, serves as a private retreat for sunbathing, lounging, or entertaining. Coralina stone borders the pool deck, enhancing the space’s natural beauty.
Upstairs, three bedrooms each feature their own en-suite bathroom and walk-in closet. The primary suite is particularly spacious, with a private terrace offering sweeping views of the surrounding mountains. The en-suite bathroom is elegantly appointed, with dual vanities and refined finishes.

Warm wood ceilings throughout the home add character and natural texture. The house is equipped with a full smart home system, including voice-activated lighting, integrated ceiling fans, air conditioning in every bedroom, and a 14-camera security system. A tiled roof and natural ventilation help maintain a cool interior year-round. Additional conveniences include a laundry room, a two-car garage, and an independent guest or staff quarters with its own bathroom.

The home is connected to the public water system and also includes a private well, along with an irrigation system for the expansive gardens.

Atenas is a charming town in the province of Alajuela, long regarded for its welcoming atmosphere, traditional lifestyle, and what is often called the best climate in the world. Its elevated setting in the hills of the Central Valley makes it especially popular with expats and families seeking a peaceful, yet well-connected lifestyle.

Rarely does a property combine this level of privacy, land size, and high-end finishes in such a strategic location. Atenas Gem offers a refined countryside lifestyle with modern comforts, easy access to the capital, and close proximity to Costa Rica’s Pacific beaches, making it a truly exceptional opportunity in one of the country’s most beloved regions.
