Asking Price: US$2,950,000
162 Acres | Approx. 65.4 Hectares
Tárcoles, Garabito | Central Pacific Coast
Approx. US$18,200 per Acre

A rare opportunity to acquire a large titled ocean-view development property strategically located along Costa Rica’s Central Pacific corridor, near Carara National Park and Route 34, and approximately 20 minutes from Los Sueños Marina & Golf Resort.

The property combines substantial acreage, ocean and mountain views, existing infrastructure, registered wells and previous development planning, offering an attractive foundation for a residential, hospitality, eco-tourism, wellness or mixed-use project.

Property Highlights

• 162 acres / 65.4 hectares of titled land
• Ocean and mountain views
• Historical master plan for 167 lots, including 73 ocean-view lots
• Conceptual potential for higher density, subject to updated studies and approvals
• Two registered deep wells with historical combined production of approximately 9 liters/second
• Existing internal roads, grading and drainage
• Main water distribution line previously installed
• Four existing homes with renovation, rental or project-support potential
• Dual public-road frontage with access from Route 34 and Calle La Barca
• Approximately 2 minutes from Carara National Park
• Approximately 9 minutes from the nearest beach
• Approximately 20 minutes from Los Sueños Marina & Golf Resort
• Seller financing available for qualified purchasers

Development Opportunity

Previous ownership invested in engineering, infrastructure and development planning, including roads, drainage, wells, water distribution and a conceptual subdivision plan.

The historical 167-lot plan provides a valuable starting point for a future developer. Alternative concepts and potentially higher density may also be explored depending on updated engineering, environmental studies, water availability and regulatory approvals.

Historical permits, approvals and water documentation have expired and will require updating or renewal. Final development potential is subject to the appropriate Costa Rican authorities and professional studies.

Investment Perspective

At US$2.95 million, the acquisition represents approximately US$18,200 per acre, before assigning separate value to the existing wells, roads, drainage, engineering work and four homes.

The opportunity is therefore more than the acquisition of 162 acres. It offers an investor or developer the foundation for a potentially significant Central Pacific project in an area influenced by Carara National Park, the Tárcoles River, nearby beaches and Los Sueños Marina.

The property may be particularly suitable for a residential community, eco-development, wellness project, hospitality concept, phased subdivision or long-term land investment.
