Long Description
Fall in love with this SUPER VERSATILE farm – at 32 acres, you can do a lot here! This sustainable and eco-friendly land is water-supplied by a well, but it also holds a spring and a bordering creek – a lot of assurance. Electricity is provided via a solar system. This is FULL off-the-grid sustainability – yet ‘the grid’ (ICE electricity) is available at the property border and this connection can be made quickly & easily, if so desired. Dozens of fruit trees - and the option to stock the house-side pond with Tilapia fish - polish off this COMPLETELY sustainable offer.
Because this land touches a public road, both residential & commercial development options are on the table. And this is a GOLDMINE opportunity. A sub-division, residential development, a HUGE multi-structure family compound, hotel, exclusive resort, commercial centre, retirement community, yoga or spiritual retreat, and even a full mixed-use investment can materialize here. Or how about a super-exclusive eco-resort that leaves most of the land untouched, keeping the jungles and allowing the pastures to revert into a lush tropical lowland rainforest?
And, of course, as this property is already self-sustainable with guaranteed water access: a farm, ranch or perma-culture farm can be raised with minimal time & effort. A friendly eco-community, with off-the-grid lifestyle, can happily exist here.
In addition, a neighbouring 23-acre lot is also for sale. Combining these two offers would create a HUGE 55-acre private kingdom with untold development potential. Because the river, waterfall, swim holes and cascades form a border of these two properties, these beautiful and useful water features would become TOTALLY SECRET & PRIVATE. They are accessible from both properties.
And with the ongoing development of Costa Rica’s 3rd International Airport – to be located south of the nearby town of Cortés – this property just got MUCH MUCH MORE LUCRATIVE!
The modern, solid concrete 2-bedroom home is complete with an outdoor covered patio touching a large swimming pool and a sunny back deck, with stunning views dissolving into the jungles and mountains of tropical Costa Rica. The home is designed to be a champion of contrast – beautiful stone flooring and concrete walls stand out against the lush tropical greenery which fills the views, via the numerous large windows, from every corner of the house. The kitchen & dining area share a spacious central space, with a living area located directly across. Two bedrooms feature huge windows that cover an entire wall, floor to (nearly) ceiling, with one of the bedrooms also having direct glass door access to the patio and access to the bathroom and a large dry room with built-in shelving. One bathroom, a half-bath and an additional outdoor shower serve the home. A large, fully equipped laundry room / pantry room with storage shelving completes this offer.
A nearby carport holds a solar power array on its roof and the attached container acts as a bodega and storage area – with plenty of space for machines, tools, bikes, and other large & bulky items.
There are several building sites on the property, allowing for plenty of options. Dozens of fruit trees gift their bounties of fresh produce, and a potential Tilapia pond can offer the occasional fresh fish – it just needs to be stocked. Vast lowland jungles and open areas are peppered throughout the 32 acres. A river with swim holes and cascades forms a jungle-covered border of the property.
The access road is PAVED all the way to the property front gates – this is a HUGE bonus and negates the need for a 4x4. Such easy access to a nature-immersed property is almost unheard-of in our area. Internal prepared drives lead through beautiful landscaped & wild grounds.
Deep jungles envelop the land, and a meandering creek – with a waterfall, cascades & swim areas - forms a part of the property border. Panoramic mountain & jungle views stretch in every direction. The surrounding mountains & forests are a part of the DANTA (Tapir) Wildlife Corridor, so expect to see macaws, monkeys, toucans, blue morpho butterflies, coatis, anteaters, and (if you are lucky) tapirs and jaguars. The jungle dusk & dawn symphony will be unforgettable – animals, birds, cicadas, and frogs will see you off & welcome you to the new day.
The neighboring service & expat towns of Palmar, Cortés, and Ojochal (the unofficial culinary capital of Costa Rica) are a quick drive away. And our area’s new-ish full-service hospital, Tomás Casas Hospital, is 8km distant. The famous Playa Ventanas, with her thundering sea caves, is 27km away while Playa Tortuga, where sea turtles lay their eggs, is a quick 26km drive. The Costanera highway is only 4km away. And the future international airport location is about 22km from the farm – construction is planned to start very soon.
Further afield, the world-famous Corcovado National Park – revered by National Geographic as the most intense place on the planet in terms of biodiversity – is a 68km drive away while the town of Sierpe – the gateway to Térraba–Sierpe National Wetland, a famous mangrove wonderland – is only 27km away. Drake Bay, a wild jungle town famed as the entry way to Corcovado NP, sits 82km distant.
