If you’re considering buying land in Costa Rica, this stunning farm is one of the most remarkable properties available. Nestled in the mountains above Uvita at approximately 2,000 feet elevation, it offers a cooler climate than the coastal areas—ideal for living and cultivating a variety of fruits and vegetables. The rich, dark soil here is perfect for agriculture, unlike the more common red clay found in many local farms.
The property features two natural springs and several picturesque waterfalls, with the potential to create a natural spring pool at the base of one. This location is perfect for building your dream home or developing an exceptional retreat center. Additionally, there’s a unique amphitheater-like section at the bottom of the property that could be transformed into something truly special.
Access to the property is via two routes. The first is from Uvita, taking about 30 minutes along a gravel road, which can be quite an adventure. The second route is from San Isidro, taking around 40 minutes from the city center, accessible by a two-wheel-drive car.
The land comprises approximately 25% open pasture and 75% primary jungle. Upon entering, you’ll pass through a jungle section before arriving at the first pasture area, roughly 10 acres in size. This area features a bodega and a horse corral, with breathtaking views of primary jungle, mountains, and the ocean, including the Ballena Islands. A trail leads through another jungle section to a second 10-acre clearing, which is flatter and fully usable, where the old homestead once stood—offering fantastic mountain and ocean views. You’ll find many mature fruit trees here, including mango, orange, bananas, and guavas.
With two distinct sections, this property is perfect for two friends to share, allowing for individual spaces or even potential segregation. The owner has invested $70,000 in recent improvements to internal roads, drainage, and infrastructure, making development a breeze. The property also comes with a legal water concession, enabling immediate building permits.
When you enter this property, you truly leave the outside world behind. It’s ideal for anyone seeking a self-sustainable lifestyle, complete with fresh spring water and excellent growing conditions. This is the authentic Costa Rica!
