Escape to the cool mountain air of southern Costa Rica with this exceptional 12.74-acre property perched above San Isidro del General. Nestled in the peaceful hills of La Guaria, this unique parcel offers complete privacy, breathtaking scenery, and multiple ideal locations to create a private estate, wellness retreat, eco-lodge, or sustainable mountain home.
From the property, enjoy sweeping panoramic views of the majestic Talamanca mountain range, the iconic Cerro Chirripó, and the sparkling lights of San Isidro in the valley below. Sitting at more than 1,300 meters above sea level, the climate is refreshingly cool year-round, with crisp evenings perfect for a fireplace and mornings surrounded by mountain mist and birdsong.
An internal access road already runs through the property, allowing easy access to several natural building sites positioned to maximize the spectacular views and privacy. The land is served by a legal private well with a strong capacity of 3 liters per second, providing abundant water for a residence, retreat center, gardens, or future development.
The property is a paradise for nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts. Located along a migratory bird route between North and South America, it offers extraordinary opportunities for birdwatching and wildlife observation. The land is filled with mature tropical fruit trees and includes more than 100 recently planted trees, creating a lush, productive environment with excellent potential for a hobby farm, coffee plantation, orchards, or self-sufficient lifestyle.
Just minutes away lies the remarkable Refugio San Antonio, a private reserve encompassing hundreds of hectares of protected cloud forest and premontane rainforest within the UNESCO Savegre Biosphere Reserve. The surrounding region is known for its spectacular outdoor recreation, including hiking, mountain biking, rafting, fishing, waterfalls, and natural swimming holes.
Despite its peaceful mountain setting, the property is only 25 minutes from San Isidro del General, where you will find shopping, restaurants, services, medical care, and everything needed for daily living. The beaches of Playa Dominical are less than an hour away, while San José and its international airport can be reached in approximately three and a half hours.
Whether you envision a luxury mountain estate, a wellness retreat, an eco-tourism project, or a private agricultural paradise, this extraordinary property offers the ideal combination of climate, beauty, water, privacy, and accessibility.
