Property Description: Magnificent home at less than replacement value. Only the best materials were used in the construction. Mixture of Italian and French style.
This beautiful house was built by a local architect on classical Italian in accordance with up-to-date anti seismic techniques well above Costa Rican Standard. The house has an extremely strong armature of steel beams and columns deeply anchored into the ground, which supports reinforced concrete floors. The walls are made of ferrocement panels on the outside and f wet rood gypsum panels on the inside, with a substantial gap between the two sets of panels. Resides making for easy access to electrical wiring and water pipes, the light but strong structure is as earthquake Prof. As it can in the present state of building techniques. In the event f an earthquake – even a severe one of seven or more on the Richter Scale – the house is designed to move moderately without damage, unlike traditional reinforced concrete block constructions. The roof – crowned by an Italian campanile – is made of terracotta tiles over a European “canalite” under roof which guarantees maximum water tightness.
