Land for Sale in Alajuela, Costa Rica

Searching for large parcels of land for sale in Costa Rica?

This is a fabulous opportunity to purchase a substantial and unique property nestled on the western slope of the Cerros de Atenas in Alajuela.

Incredible Location with Stunning Views and Refreshing Climate

The property occupies the highest buildable acreage on the western slope of the Cerros de Atenas, guaranteeing that the Cerro’s peaks bordering its confines will remain an untouched natural corridor providing fresh water, clean air, wildlife, and stunning vistas.

The site offers views of the verdant Tarcoles River and Escobal Valleys, the Gulf of Nicoya, and the Pacific Ocean.

Its proximity to Highway 27 (Autopista Jose Maria Castro Madriz) means that the property is a 40-minute drive to the Capital City of San Jose, 40 minutes to the Central Pacific Coast beaches of Jaco and Herradura, and a 40-minute drive to Puntarenas and the ferry access to the Nicoya Peninsula.

The towns of Atenas and Escobal are increasingly attractive to foreign investors and retirees looking for safe and friendly communities to build retirement and second homes.

The Escobal climate is favored as one of Costa Rica’s best for its altitude and refreshing mountain breezes.

This property’s proximity to Highway 27, San Jose, and the famous beach communities on the Central Pacific Coast ensure that the property’s value will steadily increase. At the same time, Costa Rica’s fame as Central America’s greenest and safest democracy grows.

2 Buildable Parcels

The property comprises 2 pristine, large, buildable parcels providing a total of 16.39 hectares (40.4 acres / 163,865 square meters).

The first parcel measures 71,418 square meters, and the second measures 92,447 square meters.

Both properties are fully surveyed and inscribed in the National Registry with permission for up to 11 parcels and 11 water meters with a minimum of 7,000 square meters available for construction.

Utilities

Drinking water is available as the Atenas aquifer springs, catchment, and purification tanks are located within the property.

Both lots have access to electricity at the entrance but will need to install the necessary power lines.

The Escobal aquifer springs, catchment, and purification tanks are the property of the Asada, which guarantees the upkeep and maintenance of the aquifer in addition to maintaining road access.

The same applies to the first parcel’s electricity and public lighting infrastructure, which belongs to the national energy supplier responsible for the system’s function, upkeep, and maintenance.

Permits and Registries

Spring Water Concession and Easement Contract: Asada de Escobal. This includes all works and necessary infrastructure for maintaining and properly functioning drinking water’s capture, purification, and distribution.
