About this property

With Legal (ASADA) Water, Easy Access and Proximity to Amenities & Fun, what are You Waiting For? Development Possibilities, Both Commercial & Residential, are Endless!

THE LOCATION

The property sits just 20 km from the major service hub of Palmar and 34 km from the beautiful Piedras Blancas National Park. Ojochal & Uvita are close enough for daily trips, as are Golfito and the Panamanian border areas – red hot shopping destinations! And unplanned weekend getaways to the world-famous Corcovado National Park are always on the cards. Only a minute from the Costanera Highway, you’ll have easy access to the local towns, beaches, waterfalls, museums, cafés, shops, restaurants, adrenaline activities, national parks, and the full range of Costa Ballena services & attractions.

THE LAND, ACCESS & SERVICES

The land is embraced by farms, pastures, jungles, and oil plantations that stretch for miles in every direction. Inside the property gates, wide & level expanses—ideal for agriculture or future residential and commercial development—currently host the cabin, corrals, and grazing cattle. These flats rise gently into a hilly section perfectly suited for pasturelands, and it’s here that the hilltop home enjoys its commanding ridgetop perch. Along the borders of the land, pockets of lowland rainforest create natural refuges for wildlife, welcoming tropical species such as toucans, macaws, anteaters, blue morpho butterflies, sloths, and countless others. A small river crosses the land, providing further habitat to unique tropical animals. The result is a landscape where productive land and raw nature coexist in a rare and unique balance.

A prepared road of 500m connects the farm to the Costanera Highway, the major throughfare of Costs Ballena – so while peaceful & serene, the property is minutes away from the area’s top luxuries & amenities. An internal access road crosses the land before gently ascending to meet the hilltop home, where plentiful parking space awaits. The property & home have access to full utilities including legal (ASADA) water.

THE HILLTOP HOME & VIEWS

The striking home rises above both its nearby surroundings and the distant landscapes. Its lower level holds an integrated kitchen and living area, a full bathroom, and a sizeable bedroom. The second level is devoted to the imposing covered deck—the true centerpiece of the property—where sweeping views can be enjoyed day or night, rain or shine. This upper floor also features a bar and a second full bathroom, making it perfectly suited for entertaining or unwinding in complete privacy.

The upper deck—and every corner of the home—offers spectacular 360‑degree panoramic views of tropical wilderness and peaceful pastoral landscapes. In the distance, Corcovado National Park rises above the horizon while lowland rainforests, rolling hills, coastal mountains, farms, ranches, and oil‑palm plantations create a serene, ever‑changing backdrop.

These vistas shift with the light, the weather, and the seasons, painting a living canvas that doesn’t repeats itself. You will never tire of stepping outside with a warm cup of coffee and letting your gaze wander across these heavenly views.

OTHER STRUCTURES

Two corrals—one of them a newly built structure—provide shelter and service to the cattle herd, while a nearby cabin supports the ranchers who work the land. These facilities sit in the lower corner of the property, set at a comfortable distance from the hilltop home to preserve its privacy and tranquillity.

INVESTMENT POTENTIAL

This expansive 122‑acre property offers an exceptional blend of ready‑to‑use infrastructure, prime location, and limitless development possibilities. With legal ASADA water, easy access to the Costanera Highway, and close proximity to major service hubs, national parks, beaches, and tourism hotspots, the land is perfectly positioned for both immediate use and long‑term growth. Its diverse topography—flat farmland, rolling hills, lush rainforest pockets, and a commanding hilltop—creates a rare opportunity for mixed‑use development ranging from residential communities and eco‑lodges to commercial ventures, agricultural projects, or a luxury estate. Existing structures, including the hilltop home, cabin, and corrals, provide a functional foundation for ranching or hospitality while the surrounding natural beauty and wildlife elevate the property’s appeal for conservation‑minded or tourism‑focused investors. Whether you envision a private retreat, a thriving agricultural enterprise, or a large‑scale development, this property delivers the space, resources, and strategic location to make it happen.

If a buyer elects to preserve the current ranch, the cattle herd is also for sale at $2-3,000 per head. There are a total of 43 mature cattle.

What an opportunity! A working ranch with full utilities & services, on HUGE 122 acres, at one of the most transformative times for Costa Ballena – the construction of the first International Airport in the southern zone of Costa Rica, just 30km away. The opportunity here is golden – will you step up to the plate? Contact RE/MAX today to secure a private tour of this magnificent property.
