I have a 23.5 acre farm in Costa Rica that I'd like to sell. $180,000. It's located on the Carribean side of the country, 12 miles from Turrialba. The entrance to the place is 200 meters off the highway to the beaches. Good soil, good water, great panoramic views of the surrounding mountains and the fuming 10,000 plus foot tall live volcano is the center attraction (at a respectable distance). We're located about an hour and a half from San Jose and the same for the ocean.
The farm's terrain is largely part flat to gently rolling with primary jungle to the rear of the property connected to a mountainous biological corridor, lots of nature trails and lots of birds and animals, alt. 1000 m , not much of a dry season here...always lush and green and a very mild comfortable climate all year long. No crime problem in the Turrialba area, and property is much less expensive here because it's largely agricultural.
BTW, the ag research center, CATIE, is close by. Great resource with hundreds of tropical fruit varieties. This is a really great place to grow damn near anything.
Also, there is a large bodega (garage, workshop, etc.) and a big greenhouse at the entrance, and there are good roads throughout the farm. A large pristine river is 250 m away where we get our pure spring water. Public water and electricity is at the entrance. Many house sites!
I want to sell the whole place rather than breaking it up into smaller farms if possible. My farm is next door, so to speak, and I really don't want too many neighbors if I can help it. The farm is partially being used by a local farmer to grow ornamental plants for export. All that will be removed when I get a contract. I want to sell the property because my daughter in St. Pete wants to buy an house someday soon, and Daddy would love to help her.
You can view the place on youtube: finca cacique. Also you can check out the wonderful small city of Turrialba on youtube....even if you don't want to buy my place, it's good daydream material! This is a great little country. I've been here almost 20 years and plan to croak and become compost here.
