San Francisco Nature Escape – Chirripó Valley Sanctuary

Property overview

Set in the quiet community of San Francisco de Rivas in the Chirripó Valley, this 2.2-hectare (22,000 m²) property sits in a private corner of the village with open mountain views and generous constructible area. The land feels both accessible and secluded — elevated enough for good views and a sense of separation, yet close enough to village life to walk or drive to everyday conveniences.

Within minutes, the property connects to some of the valley's most notable attractions: the trailhead leading to Chirripó, Costa Rica's highest peak; Cloudbridge Nature Reserve; Los Gigantes Nature Reserve; and a selection of cafés, restaurants, and community gathering spots. A weekly farmers market operates in nearby Chimirol. San Isidro de El General, with full city services, markets, and hospitals, is approximately forty minutes away. Playa Dominical, the closest beach, is about an hour and a half from the property.

Water is supplied through a legal connection from ASADA San Francisco, ensuring a regulated and reliable source year-round. The property's combination of mountain views, privacy, and straightforward access to both nature and services makes it a strong foundation for a private home or a small-scale residential development in one of the valley's most connected villages. Priced at $350,000.
