Full Description: 262 acres (106 hectares) of rolling hills lying in the Talamanca mountains of south Costa Rica. Stunning 360 degree views in every direction. A perfect blend of half forest and half wide open pasture, this tract of land is prime for development. Multiple amenities combine to make this a unique layout, with numerous building sites and panoramic tropical views. Standing almost anywhere on the land, you can see the entire valley (Valle De General) below, and the primary forest lands of Chirripo Park above. This acreage is conducive to any number of uses. Excellent site for exclusive estate homes, mini ranches, a private retreat, or upscale mountain lodge with tour center. Located at 4,200 ft. of elevation, you can truly enjoy the ideal climate zone with warm days, cool nights, and fresh air. Rich, pure water with 7 creeks, 1 major river, numerous springs, and a large private waterfall. If that weren’t enough, the main public water supply , a 3” water main, provides for two towns below the acreage, and runs along the property. This alternative source of pure fresh water is courtesy of the nearby park lands. “Line of sight” to the city below allowing reception of both cell signals and the ability for wireless high speed Internet. Most of the surrounding lands are private or state protected, with vast areas of old forest growth, so close that you get the sensation you can reach out and be there. Imagine your own large private development with a national park in your back yard...an uncommon proximity to primary forest with views of the city lights below at night. An “end of the road” location but yet close to civilization. Just 40 minutes from the town of San Isidro De General, also known as Perez Zeledon. San Isidro is 2.5 hours southeast of San Jose along the Pan American Highway and 45 minutes east of Dominical on the south Pacific Coast. At 2,300 ft. above sea level, Perez has a population of 130,000. It is the central hub and largest city in the southern zone, and it is the fastest growing metropolitan area in the country. Perez Zeledon and El Valle General (situated in the basin of a large mountain valley) are considered the best quality of living in all of Costa Rica, mainly due to the bustling economy, moderate climate, low crime, no smog, plentiful goods and services, farmers markets and private schools. The eastern portion of the valley is formed by the Talamanca Mountains and reaches up to 3,820 meters (12,530 ft.), making it the highest point in Central America. This high point is a true Costa Rican treasure known as Chirripo National Park. Chirripo adjoins Amistad International Park and forms the largest contiguous protected area in all of Central America. The Costanera (Pacific coast) highway is a short 45 minute drive, lined with some of the finest beaches and parks in all of Costa Rica including Playa Dominical beach, Playa Dominicalito, Playa Hermosa, Rancho La Merced National Wildlife Refuge on the coast, Playa Uvita, Playa Ballena, Marino Ballena National Marine Park (home of the famous “Whales Tail” coral reefs), Playa Pinuela, Playa Ventanas, and Playa Tortuga. Totally remodeled 2 bedroom, 1 bath, ranch house with living room, den, kitchen, new interior and exterior, sidewalks, gutters, downspouts, kitchen drain-field, bath drain-field, new plumbing, new electrical, appliances, ready for move-in. No electric bill at the house. The property owner has installed an eco-friendly Hydro electric water system with a 3KW / 25 amp generator which can be boosted to 5KW / 50 amps - 220 volts. Well sufficient system for all normal electrical needs, serviced with over 90 lbs. of water pressure. Good year round access to the property on a well maintained gravel road. Seperate rancho overlooking the private on-site waterfall. It doesn’t get any better than this, it’s the pure life of Costa Rica.
