# Villa Chirripo: A Mountain Sanctuary in Southern Costa Rica's Most Coveted Region

Pérez Zeledón continues to establish itself as Costa Rica's premier destination for discerning buyers seeking the convergence of luxury, nature, and authentic mountain living. This 8.74-acre estate exemplifies the exceptional opportunities defining the Southern Pacific's rapid ascent as a world-class residential market.

## The Setting: Elevation, Views, and Uncompromised Privacy

Positioned at just over 4,000 feet above sea level at the base of Mt. Chirripo—Central America's tallest peak at 12,536 feet—Villa Chirripo commands panoramic vistas across the Chirripo River valley toward the confluence of the Chucuyo and Chirripo rivers. Nightfall brings twinkling lights from Miravalles and Perez Zeledon into view across the terrain below. The elevation rewards residents with consistently temperate days near 80°F and crisp evenings, creating the perpetual spring-like climate for which the region is renowned.

Only two uphill neighbors precede a dead-end road, with thousands of acres of cloud forest and Chirripo National Park forming a natural boundary. Electronic gate access with digital coding ensures both security and seclusion.

## The Architecture: Refined Comfort and Outdoor Living

The main residence encompasses 12,397 square feet under roof across four bedrooms and three and a half bathrooms. Three expansive primary suites feature individual terraces with seamless indoor-outdoor flow, while a separate guest home (approximately 2,500 sq/ft) with one bedroom and one bathroom offers independent accommodation or rental potential.

An elaborate water feature sequences from the two-car carport through fountains, tropical plantings, and a waterfall—establishing an immediate sense of tranquility upon arrival. Multiple outdoor living zones include a generous covered terrace and an expansive pool terrace encompassing lush tropical gardens.

## The Heart: Culinary Excellence and Self-Sufficiency

The gourmet kitchen showcases high-end appliances, dual refrigeration and freezer units, and a striking backlit Onyx island and backsplash. Complementing this is an impressive 1,729 square-foot under-roof organic production area—complete with raised beds, irrigation infrastructure, and dedicated lighting—positioned directly atop a mountain spring source. This configuration enables a genuinely self-sustainable lifestyle, enhanced by naturally fertile soils.

## Location and Accessibility

Despite its secluded setting, Villa Chirripo provides convenient access to modern amenities: San Isidro and Perez Zeledon lie 15 minutes downhill, while the celebrated coastal communities of Uvita and Dominical are approximately one hour distant. Residents benefit from world-class hospitality venues including Hacienda AltaGracia's celebrated wellness center, exceptional private healthcare at Hospital Las Américas and Clínica Labrador, and respected educational institutions from preschool through advanced degree programs. Chirripó National Park, Nauyaca Waterfalls, and diverse adventure opportunities remain within immediate reach.
