Located at 1,800 meters above sea level in the province of Cartago, this 11.9-hectare estate embodies the very definition of an elevated escape. From its gardens, the property offers one of the most privileged views over the Cartago Valley, with expansive panoramas that evolve throughout the day. Its elevation ensures an especially pleasant mountain climate, with temperatures ranging from approximately 15 °C in the early morning to as high as 30 °C during the warmer seasons of the year. The estate has been maintained with an exceptional level of care. Established gardens, flowering landscapes, vegetation, wildlife, and natural walking trails across the upper areas of the land create a harmonious and walkable environment, designed to be explored. Here, nature is not merely scenery, it is an active part of the daily experience. Among its amenities are a three-bedroom cabin with bathroom, kitchen, and fireplace area; a natural lagoon stocked with tilapia located at a higher elevation; an equestrian stable seamlessly integrated into the landscape; and a ranch-style bar strategically positioned to enjoy sweeping views and memorable sunsets. The property also includes productive areas, with approximately one hectare currently dedicated to coffee cultivation, offering the potential for sustainable expansion or diversification. The land provides several ideal sites for the construction of a large-scale residence, surrounded by absolute privacy and thoughtfully integrated into the natural setting. This is not simply a property with a cabin. It is nearly 12 hectares of land with vision, scale, and character, where multiple lifestyles can coexist: a grand mountain residence, an equestrian retreat, a boutique agricultural project, or a refined balance of all three. Just one hour from San José, this property allows you to step away from the capital without losing connection, offering a unique opportunity for you and your family to claim your own elevated escape.
