Rare large ocean-view development parcel on Costa Rica’s Central Pacific coast. The property is bordered by two public roads: the Pacific Coast Highway (Ruta 34) with 77 meters of direct frontage (plus an additional 130 meters just one meter off the highway), and Calle La Barca – home to popular birdwatching lodges Cerro Lodge and Tárcoles Lodge.
Key Highlights & Existing Improvements:
– 162 pristine acres with sweeping Pacific Ocean, Tárcoles River, and Carara National Park views
– Existing master plan shows 167 lots (73 confirmed ocean-view); lots can be further subdivided to 300–400+ with updated planning
– Gravel internal road network installed 2009–2011 – roads are recoverable with minor work; property requires re-clearing of secondary growth
– TWO registered deep wells producing combined 9 L/s (5.7 + 3.3 L/s) – previously lab-tested and approved by AYA & ASADA; combined capacity sufficient for up to 400 lots
– Main water distribution line already installed along the primary internal road (not yet connected to the wells)
– 4 existing homes on the property offering immediate resale or rental potential (estimated $1.1M+ after light renovation)
– Historical sewer-treatment-plant exemption letter previously obtained (renewable)
– Previous approvals secured from CFIA, INVU, INS, Ministry of Health, and AYA – all permits and water concessions have expired and will require renewal/updating
– Only 9 minutes to the nearest beach, 20 minutes to Los Sueños Marina & Marriott, ~45 minutes to San José via Caldera Highway
– Future international airport planned in Orotina (18 km away)
Investment Upside:
Current master plan = 167 lots
With updated planning & permitting = 300–400+ lots possible
Strong potential for significant appreciation and phased development profits in one of Costa Rica’s fastest-growing coastal corridors.
This is a rare large-acreage ocean-view opportunity with substantial existing infrastructure, surrounded by Carara National Park (daily scarlet macaw flyovers), the famous Tárcoles crocodile river, and established eco-tourism.
Clean title and private tours available.
Neighborhood: all, Directly across from Carara National Park, Tárcoles
