PRIVATE 13+ ACRE RANCH ESTATE IN ATENAS — LAND, VIEWS & ENDLESS POSSIBILITY

What if your Costa Rican home came with enough land to become something much more?


Set in the peaceful countryside of Concepción, Atenas, this exceptional property offers the increasingly rare combination of a substantial private residence and a large tract of usable Costa Rican land.


With approximately 42,847 m² of land, the estate provides the space, privacy and infrastructure to support a genuine ranch or agricultural lifestyle while remaining only minutes from Atenas and convenient access to Route 27.


This isn't simply a home on a large lot.


It is a property with room to build a vision.




LIVE ABOVE THE VALLEY


The principal residence sits prominently on a hill, taking advantage of sweeping views toward San José and the surrounding mountains.


The elevated setting provides an exceptional sense of openness and privacy, while the surrounding rolling countryside creates the unmistakable feeling of being away from it all.


And yet, you're not isolated.


Atenas town center is only minutes away, while the main east-west highway provides convenient access toward the Central Valley and beyond.


That combination is one of the property's strongest advantages:


Country privacy.


Mountain views.


Large acreage.


And practical access to civilization.




A SPACIOUS MAIN RESIDENCE


The approximately 420 m² main home is designed around generous living spaces and the property's spectacular setting.


The principal living and dining areas provide ample room for entertaining, while the bedroom configuration offers flexibility for family and guests.


The primary suite occupies the upper level, creating a private retreat with a spacious bathroom featuring a jacuzzi and private deck.


Additional guest bedrooms are located downstairs, allowing the home's different areas to function independently when entertaining family or visitors.




THE POOL & RANCHO


Below the main residence is one of the property's most inviting features:


A large private swimming pool and communal-style rancho area.


This is where the ranch lifestyle becomes particularly enjoyable.


The pool provides the perfect place to cool off during warm afternoons, while the rancho creates a natural gathering space for outdoor meals, parties and family celebrations.


Imagine spending the morning on the ranch, returning home for an afternoon in the pool, and watching the mountains change color as the sun goes down.


This is Costa Rican countryside living with a resort-like element.




A PROPERTY DESIGNED FOR THE RANCH LIFESTYLE


The land is the real differentiator.


The property is fenced and configured for cattle or livestock, with an existing livestock corral and agricultural areas.


There is substantial open land and rolling terrain that can accommodate a variety of agricultural, equestrian or lifestyle uses, subject of course to applicable regulations and due diligence.


Potential uses could include:


Cattle


Horses


Small-scale agriculture


Fruit production


Gardens


Equestrian activities


Private recreational land


Or simply maintaining a large private estate


For a buyer who has been searching for acreage rather than another suburban property, this distinction is enormous.




A CARETAKER HOME


At the entrance to the property is a separate caretaker residence.


This provides an important practical advantage for a property of this size.


Having a dedicated caretaker residence can facilitate:



  • Property maintenance

  • Agricultural operations

  • Livestock care

  • Gardening

  • Security

  • General estate management


It also creates flexibility for staff or extended family, depending on the buyer's plans.




LARGE DETACHED GARAGE & STORAGE


The estate includes a substantial detached parking garage with four garage spaces, along with additional storage areas.


For a property intended for ranching or agricultural use, this is a particularly valuable feature.


It provides space for vehicles, equipment, tools, recreational toys, supplies and the infrastructure necessary to manage a large property.


You don't have to start from scratch.




WATER & INFRASTRUCTURE


The property currently has an artisanal/private well supplying the home and farm, with access to public water also expected to be available.


This gives the property an important infrastructure advantage for both residential and agricultural use.


For buyers considering Costa Rican acreage, water availability is one of the issues that should always be investigated carefully during due diligence—and having an existing water source is an important starting point.




MORE THAN A RANCH — A DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITY


With more than 42,000 m² of land, the property offers something that simply cannot be created after the fact:


SPACE.


There is room to envision additional agricultural projects, equestrian facilities, gardens, orchards, recreational areas or other permitted improvements.


The possibilities will depend upon zoning, water availability, municipal requirements and the buyer's intended use, but the sheer scale gives you options that conventional residential properties simply don't provide.




THE ATENAS ADVANTAGE


The property sits in the countryside of Concepción, Atenas, providing the tranquility many international buyers seek while remaining close to town.


Atenas offers a particularly attractive Central Valley lifestyle:


Mountain scenery


A temperate climate


An established international community


Restaurants and everyday services


Agricultural and rural surroundings


Convenient access to Route 27


And from this property, you can enjoy those advantages without giving up the privacy that comes with substantial acreage.




FOR THE BUYER WHO WANTS MORE


This property could be particularly compelling for someone looking for:


A PRIVATE FAMILY RANCH


A substantial home surrounded by land, animals and nature.


AN EQUESTRIAN ESTATE


Existing acreage and livestock infrastructure provide a strong foundation.


AN AGRICULTURAL PROPERTY


Room for gardens, crops, livestock or other permitted agricultural projects.


A MULTIGENERATIONAL ESTATE


Main residence plus separate caretaker/guest accommodation.


A PRIVATE COUNTRY RETREAT


A large piece of Costa Rica where privacy—not proximity to neighbors—is the defining feature.


A LONG-TERM LAND INVESTMENT


A substantial tract of land in the Atenas countryside with existing improvements and infrastructure.




WHY THIS PROPERTY IS DIFFERENT


It is difficult to find a property around Atenas that combines:


42,847 m² of land


Approximately 420 m² of construction


5 bedrooms


5 bathrooms


A hilltop residence


Panoramic San José and mountain views


Private swimming pool


Large rancho


Caretaker residence


Livestock corral


Agricultural land


Large detached garage


Extensive storage


Existing private/artisanal well


Fenced acreage


And convenient access to Atenas and Route 27


all in one property.


This isn't for someone looking for another house.


It's for someone looking for land, freedom and possibility.




AN OPPORTUNITY WORTH SEEING IN PERSON


A property of this scale cannot be fully appreciated through photographs.


You need to drive through the entrance.


Walk the land.


Stand at the top of the hill.


See the views.


Explore the ranch facilities.


Experience the pool and outdoor areas.


And begin imagining what 42,847 m² of Costa Rica could become for you.


The owner is also open to discussing owner financing or other proposals, creating additional flexibility for qualified buyers and making a direct conversation particularly worthwhile.
