DESIGN DESCRIPTION: Villa-style residence.

This specific property is commercially known as the "Ocean View Octagon House," a mansion situated in the hills of San Ramón de Alajuela, Costa Rica.

Its design reflects an Italian- or Tuscan-inspired Neo-Mediterranean style, combined with a unique geometric layout.
The property's key architectural features are detailed below:
Key Architectural Elements
• Central Octagonal Design: Unlike traditional symmetrical villas, it features an atrium and an internal layout structured around an octagon.
• Observation Tower or Belvedere: A prominent visual feature is the elevated cylindrical structure topped by a conical tiled roof. This type of tower evokes the viewing towers found in historic European villas.
• Clay Tile Roofs: It utilizes pitched roofs covered in reddish-brown terracotta tiles, a hallmark of Mediterranean architecture.
• Colored Stucco Facade: The use of textured walls in pastel tones—specifically a soft pink—is characteristic of coastal and hillside architecture in the European Mediterranean region.
• Arched Windows: Arched openings are incorporated into the upper levels and the tower, softening the lines of the facade.

Situated in the town of Santiago de San Ramón, less than a 5-minute drive from the highway to Puntarenas and 5 minutes from the city of San Ramón. Located at an elevation of 1,100 meters above sea level, the property offers a cool climate and incredible views of the Pacific Ocean, Puntarenas, and the Gulf of Nicoya.
