PROPERTY OVERVIEW
Finca Barroeta is a rare 161,799.82 m² (16-hectare) mountain estate offered for sale in the highly sought-after community of Barroeta de Atenas, Costa Rica. Surveyed and mapped across three distinct elevation levels, the property combines expansive open pasture, mature forest, natural spring-fed drainages, and sweeping panoramic views — a blank canvas suited to a luxury residential community, a gated villa development, a private family estate, or an agritourism retreat.
Town water and electrical service are already available at the farm entrance, a significant advantage for any development plan — the heaviest utility infrastructure work is already in place at the property line, reducing early-stage development cost and timeline for a buyer or developer.
LOCATION — BARROETA DE ATENAS
Atenas is internationally recognized for its privileged climate, frequently cited as one of the best in the world. This distinction has drawn a growing community of North American and European residents in search of natural beauty, security, and quality of life — today Atenas ranks among the most sought-after destinations for foreign residents in Costa Rica.
Barroeta itself combines privacy and tranquility with strategic connectivity. The property sits only 4 kilometers from Route 27 (the San José–Caldera Highway), providing seamless access to both the capital and the Pacific coast, and is close to Carara National Park and multiple eco-tourism destinations, volcanoes, and Pacific beaches. Costa Rica's long-standing democratic tradition and political stability further reinforce the area's position as a secure, reliable investment destination.

THREE LEVELS, THREE OPPORTUNITIES
The finca's cadastral survey divides the land into three distinct levels, each offering something different to a developer or private buyer:
First Level — Main Entrance & Open Terrain: Features the property's main entrance (where town water and electric service connect), along with expansive open spaces characterized by lush greenery and natural pathways — ideal for initial infrastructure, a welcome/reception area, or recreational grounds.
Second Level — Trails & Untouched Nature: A mix of defined paths and untouched forest, with natural spring-fed drainages running through the terrain, offering a serene, private environment for trails, garden terraces, or low-density residential lots.
Third Level — Panoramic Ridge: The highest ground on the property, with breathtaking panoramic views across the surrounding hills and distant landscapes toward the Central Valley — the natural setting for premium view-lot villas or an estate home site.
