400051521068 - A STRATEGIC 14.7-ACRE DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITY IN ATENAS - A STRATEGIC 14.7-ACRE DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITY IN ATENASNearly 6 Hectares • Dual Road Frontage • Highway 27 Connectivity • Commercial-Residential LocationSome properties are purchased to build a home. Others are purchased because their location, size and accessibility create the foundation for an entire project.This exceptional 59,481 m² property — approximately 5.95 hectares or 14.7 acres — offers a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial parcel in a strategically positioned part of Atenas.Located along the radial road connecting Atenas with Highway 27, the property also has frontage on the road toward Río Grande, giving it two important points of access and a positioning that deserves serious consideration from developers and investors. The listing is currently offered at US$2.9 million and identifies the location as commercial-residential, with services available for a project.LOCATION IS THE STORYThe property's greatest asset may be its location.It sits on the Atenas radial connecting to Highway 27, one of the Central Valley's most important transportation corridors, while its additional frontage toward Río Grande provides another potential access point.For a development project, that combination can be significant.Visibility.Accessibility.Multiple access possibilities.Nearly 6 hectares.Commercial-residential positioning.Available services.Together, these characteristics create a property that should be evaluated as a development opportunity, rather than simply as vacant land.TWO ROAD FRONTAGES — TWO POTENTIAL ACCESS POINTSOne of the property's most compelling characteristics is its dual road frontage.The property fronts:The Atenas radial from Highway 27andThe road toward Río GrandeFor the right project, multiple road connections could provide valuable flexibility for traffic flow, entrances, internal circulation and overall site planning, subject to engineering, zoning, municipal requirements and approvals.This is exactly the type of characteristic that can make a large parcel considerably more interesting to a developer.ALMOST 6 HECTARES WITH ROOM TO THINK BIGAt 59,481.41 m², this property is large enough to allow a buyer to consider a comprehensive development strategy rather than being limited to a single structure.Depending on applicable zoning, feasibility studies and permits, potential concepts could include:• Residential development• Commercial-residential development• Mixed-use project• Residential community• Commercial or service-oriented development• Institutional or professional uses• Long-term land investment / land banking• A purpose-designed project taking advantage of its strategic locationThe key is not to assume that one particular use is the answer.The opportunity is to determine what use makes the highest and best use of the land.CONNECTED TO HIGHWAY 27 — CONNECTED TO ATENASHighway 27 has fundamentally improved connectivity between the Central Valley and Costa Rica's Pacific coast.This property benefits from being positioned along the radial connecting Atenas with that major transportation corridor, while remaining integrated into the Atenas community.That creates an attractive combination:Central Valley accessibility + Atenas lifestyle + development-scale land.The property is also close to the services and amenities of Atenas, including shopping, restaurants, schools, healthcare and everyday necessities.SERVICES ALREADY AVAILABLE FOR A PROJECTThe current listing specifically notes that all services are available for a project, an important consideration for anyone evaluating a development property.Of course, the exact capacity, connection requirements and availability for a specific project should be confirmed through the appropriate utility providers and professional feasibility studies.For an investor, however, having infrastructure and services available in the area can substantially change the development equation compared with an isolated rural property.A PROPERTY FOR DEVELOPERS AND INVESTORSThis property may appeal to buyers looking for several different strategies.DEVELOPERSAcquire a substantial parcel in one transaction and evaluate a comprehensive development plan.INVESTORSControl a significant land asset in a strategically connected location with potential long-term appreciation.COMMERCIAL USERSExplore a location where accessibility and road frontage could be important components of a future project.RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPERSEvaluate the potential for a residential project benefiting from proximity to Atenas and Highway 27.LAND BANKING INVESTORSAcquire a large, strategically located property and hold it for future development as the surrounding area evolves.THE REAL OPPORTUNITY IS IN THE SCALEIt is easy to look at a property like this and ask:“What can I build here”The better question is:“What project would make the best use of this location”With nearly 6 hectares, two road frontages and a direct connection to the Atenas radial from Highway 27, the answer deserves professional study.This is not a property where you necessarily want to begin with a predetermined vision.You want to begin with the land, the location, the zoning, the infrastructure and the numbers — and then determine the strongest opportunity.WHY THIS PROPERTY DESERVES A CLOSER LOOKLarge parcels in strategically located areas become increasingly difficult to assemble.Once a property of this scale is subdivided or developed, acquiring the entire tract again is generally no longer possible.This gives the current opportunity a particular appeal:One property.Nearly 6 hectares.Two road frontages.Highway 27 connectivity.Commercial-residential positioning.Services available.For the right buyer, that combination could be considerably more valuable than the individual components suggest.COME SEE THE PROPERTYMaps can show you the boundaries.Aerial imagery can show you the location.But walking the property and seeing its relationship to the roads, Atenas and Highway 27 is what allows you to begin understanding its possibilities.If you are looking for development land, an investment property, a commercial opportunity, a residential project site or a strategic land-bank acquisition in Atenas, this property deserves your attention.Contact me directly for
