About this property

This property is situated above the Uvita bamboo forest and spans 101 acres, making it suitable for various development opportunities. The current owner has held the land for over 20 years and is now looking to sell. Potential uses for the property include a private family compound, an exclusive estate, an eco resort, a boutique hotel, or a yoga retreat. It includes 20 hectares of developable land alongside an equal amount of protected land, with 20 hectares enrolled in FONAFIFO, a forest protection program that generates annual carbon credit income to help offset property taxes. Located at the base of an impressive mountain range, Uvita is just a 15-minute drive from the farm, providing a secluded lifestyle while still offering easy access to local beaches, restaurants, supermarkets, and the amenities of Costa Ballena. This strategic positioning between mountain privacy and coastal accessibility enhances both lifestyle appeal and long-term value for investors and buyers interested in Dominical real estate. The property features direct mountain access leading toward Valle General and San Isidro, with beautiful rivers and expansive vistas throughout the region. Internal access roads are present, along with ample space for establishing a food forest and a reliable water source suitable for irrigation. A large river borders the property and includes a dramatic 40-foot waterfall, adding to its natural beauty and development potential. With public road frontage, the owner enjoys full development flexibility without restrictive building covenants. The land has a naturally gentle grade, which minimizes the need for significant earthwork and allows for efficient preparation of building sites. Each potential homesite offers sweeping mountain views and ocean vistas overlooking Marino Ballena National Park, including clear views of the iconic Whale Tail formation. This farm is well-suited for a boutique hotel, a low-density residential or conservation-focused community, or a strategic subdivision designed to maximize return on investment. It also supports self-sustainable living, permaculture, or eco-oriented development that takes advantage of the property’s abundant water resources and conservation status.
