Long Description
There are properties, and then there are places that change the way you think about living. This is one of them. Tucked into the lush highlands above the Chirripó Mountain range, this 45-acre riverfront ranch sits at 2,800 feet above sea level in the small farming community of Santa Teresa — just 45 minutes south of San Isidro de Pérez Zeledón. The climate here is nothing short of extraordinary: crisp, clean mountain air, days in the 70s°F and nights in the 60s°F, with cool breezes rolling down off the Chirripó peaks and flowing along the river all day long. You will not need air conditioning. You will not want to leave. Riverfront You Have to See to Believe This property features some of the finest river frontage in all of Costa Rica. A generous, naturally flat stretch of land along the river creates a beach-like gathering area — a rare feature that sets this farm apart from anything else on the market. Multiple large, crystal-clear swimming holes carved by clean mountain water provide the kind of family memories that most people only dream about. Whether you're watching the kids splash in the shallows or enjoying a quiet morning with a coffee in hand as the river mist rises, this setting is simply unmatched. Forest, Pasture & Panoramic Views Ten acres of old-growth forest crown the upper portion of the property, featuring dramatic building sites perched above the river with sweeping sunrise views of the Chirripó Mountain range. Imagine waking up each morning to that view from your dream home. The remaining 35 acres roll gently across fertile pasture — soft, manageable hills currently supporting 4 horses and 15 prize cows. This is a working farm in one of the most agriculturally rich corridors in the country. Locals call this region the permaculture breadbasket of Costa Rica, and the soil will prove it — virtually any crop, fruit, or garden thrives here. With at least 10 exceptional home sites spread across the property, this ranch is equally suited for a private family compound, a boutique eco-lodge development, or a multi-generational retreat. Ready to Build, Ready to Live A charming 1-bedroom, 1-bath starter home is already in place on the property, currently used as a winter residence by the owners — so you can be on the land from day one. Public road frontage ensures easy, reliable access year-round. Electricity is already connected, and the property is serviced by ASADA municipal water. The infrastructure is done. All that's missing is you. Community & Culture The neighbors here are local Costa Rican farming families — people who have lived close to the land for generations and are widely recognized as among the happiest people on the planet. There is a deep sense of community, simplicity, and pura vida that permeates this valley. This is authentic Costa Rica. The Best of the Coast is Close When the mountains call you to the ocean, world-class surf and some of the most beautiful beaches in Central America — Playa Dominical and Uvita — are just a 90-minute drive away. The best of both worlds, within reach on any given weekend. This is a rare, once-in-a-generation offering. Properties with this combination of river access, climate, fertility, views, and infrastructure simply do not come available often.
