A RARE 39.4-HECTARE DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITY IN ATENAS

Panoramic Views • Multiple Building Areas • Forest • Running Stream • Just 10 Minutes from Atenas

Some properties are simply land. Others offer the raw ingredients for something much bigger.

This exceptional 394,224 m² property — approximately 39.4 hectares or 97.4 acres — in Guácimo, Atenas presents a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial tract of Costa Rican countryside with extraordinary views, natural features and significant potential for development.

Located just 10 minutes from the center of Atenas along the picturesque rural Route 707, the property offers the feeling of a private countryside retreat while remaining close to the restaurants, shops, services and community that make Atenas one of Costa Rica's most desirable Central Valley destinations.

THIS IS NOT JUST A FARM — IT IS A CANVAS

A winding internal road leads from the public road into the property, opening access to numerous areas that could potentially accommodate homes, estates or a larger development concept.

The land offers multiple potential building areas, allowing a future owner to thoughtfully position structures around the natural contours of the property and maximize the views.

And the views are one of the property's defining characteristics.

From different points across the property, the landscape opens toward San José and the Central Valley, while also offering vistas toward the Pacific.

Imagine a private estate, boutique residential community, wellness retreat, hospitality project or carefully planned countryside development where residents can wake up surrounded by nature and look across the Costa Rican landscape toward the capital and Pacific horizon.

The scale gives you options.

NATURE IS PART OF THE PROPERTY

One of the most compelling characteristics is the property's natural setting.

The land borders a forest and a running stream, adding both privacy and a genuine connection to the surrounding ecosystem. (RE/MAX Best Climate)

Rather than developing a property and then trying to manufacture a natural environment, here the nature is already part of the landscape.

That creates the possibility of designing a project around the land rather than forcing the land to conform to a project.

For the right vision, the forest, stream, views and existing access could become some of the property's greatest assets.

A STRATEGIC ATENAS LOCATION

Atenas has become increasingly attractive to buyers seeking the balance of Central Valley accessibility, Costa Rican countryside and a relaxed lifestyle.

This property is particularly interesting because it sits close enough to town for convenience while retaining the space and privacy that large-acreage properties provide.

Approximately:

10 minutes — Atenas town center
Easy access — Route 707
Central Valley — San José views
Pacific — visible from portions of the property

Atenas also provides convenient access to everyday services, restaurants, shopping, healthcare and community amenities, while its location makes it an excellent base for reaching both San José and Costa Rica's Pacific coast. (RE/MAX Best Climate)

WHAT COULD THIS PROPERTY BECOME?

The answer depends on the buyer's vision and, of course, the applicable zoning, permitting and development requirements.

But the sheer size and characteristics make this property worthy of serious consideration for a range of concepts, including:

• Private luxury estate
• Multi-estate family compound
• Boutique residential community
• Wellness or retreat destination
• Eco-oriented hospitality project
• Agricultural/lifestyle community
• Investment or land-banking opportunity
• Carefully planned countryside development

The important point is that you are not purchasing a small parcel with only one obvious use.

You are acquiring almost 40 hectares of land with room to think strategically.

WHY PROPERTIES LIKE THIS ARE HARD TO REPLACE

Finding nearly 100 acres in the Atenas area with this combination of access, views, natural boundaries, forest, water and potential building areas is increasingly difficult.

Large properties close to established Central Valley communities are finite.

Once land of this scale is subdivided or developed, opportunities to acquire an entire tract become substantially harder to find.

That makes this property particularly interesting not only for someone who wants to develop, but also for an investor who understands the value of controlling a large, strategically located parcel in a growing Costa Rican market.

THE REAL VALUE MAY BE IN WHAT HAS NOT YET BEEN BUILT.

There is no need to inherit someone else's development vision.

There is no existing community dictating the future of the property.

Instead, the next owner has the opportunity to evaluate the land, study the possibilities and determine what makes the most sense for the property.

That flexibility is precisely what makes this opportunity so compelling.

COME SEE THE LAND FOR YOURSELF

The photographs can communicate the views.

The maps can communicate the scale.

But neither can fully communicate what it feels like to drive into a property of this size and realize how much possibility exists within it.

If you are looking for large-scale land in the Atenas area for development, investment, a private estate or a long-term Costa Rican project, this property deserves your attention.
