40005152559 - PRIVATE 13+ ACRE RANCH ESTATE IN ATENAS — LAND, VIEWS & ENDLESS POSSIBILITY - PRIVATE 13+ ACRE RANCH ESTATE IN ATENAS — LAND, VIEWS & ENDLESS POSSIBILITYUS$1,400,000 • 42,847 m² / 10.59 Acres • 420 m² Residence • 5 Bedrooms • 5 Bathrooms • Private Pool • Caretaker Home • Livestock Facilities • Large Garage • Panoramic ViewsWhat if your Costa Rican home came with enough land to become something much moreSet in the peaceful countryside of Concepción, Atenas, this exceptional property offers the increasingly rare combination of a substantial private residence and a large tract of usable Costa Rican land.With approximately 42,847 m² of land, the estate provides the space, privacy and infrastructure to support a genuine ranch or agricultural lifestyle while remaining only minutes from Atenas and convenient access to Route 27.This isn't simply a home on a large lot.It is a property with room to build a vision.LIVE ABOVE THE VALLEYThe principal residence sits prominently on a hill, taking advantage of sweeping views toward San José and the surrounding mountains.The elevated setting provides an exceptional sense of openness and privacy, while the surrounding rolling countryside creates the unmistakable feeling of being away from it all.And yet, you're not isolated.Atenas town center is only minutes away, while the main east-west highway provides convenient access toward the Central Valley and beyond.That combination is one of the property's strongest advantages:Country privacy.Mountain views.Large acreage.And practical access to civilization.A SPACIOUS MAIN RESIDENCEThe approximately 420 m² main home is designed around generous living spaces and the property's spectacular setting.The principal living and dining areas provide ample room for entertaining, while the bedroom configuration offers flexibility for family and guests.The primary suite occupies the upper level, creating a private retreat with a spacious bathroom featuring a jacuzzi and private deck.Additional guest bedrooms are located downstairs, allowing the home's different areas to function independently when entertaining family or visitors.THE POOL & RANCHOBelow the main residence is one of the property's most inviting features:A large private swimming pool and communal-style rancho area.This is where the ranch lifestyle becomes particularly enjoyable.The pool provides the perfect place to cool off during warm afternoons, while the rancho creates a natural gathering space for outdoor meals, parties and family celebrations.Imagine spending the morning on the ranch, returning home for an afternoon in the pool, and watching the mountains change color as the sun goes down.This is Costa Rican countryside living with a resort-like element.A PROPERTY DESIGNED FOR THE RANCH LIFESTYLEThe land is the real differentiator.The property is fenced and configured for cattle or livestock, with an existing livestock corral and agricultural areas.There is substantial open land and rolling terrain that can accommodate a variety of agricultural, equestrian or lifestyle uses, subject of course to applicable regulations and due diligence.Potential uses could include:CattleHorsesSmall-scale agricultureFruit productionGardensEquestrian activitiesPrivate recreational landOr simply maintaining a large private estateFor a buyer who has been searching for acreage rather than another suburban property, this distinction is enormous.A CARETAKER HOMEAt the entrance to the property is a separate caretaker residence.This provides an important practical advantage for a property of this size.Having a dedicated caretaker residence can facilitate:Property maintenanceAgricultural operationsLivestock careGardeningSecurityGeneral estate managementIt also creates flexibility for staff or extended family, depending on the buyer's plans.LARGE DETACHED GARAGE & STORAGEThe estate includes a substantial detached parking garage with four garage spaces, along with additional storage areas.For a property intended for ranching or agricultural use, this is a particularly valuable feature.It provides space for vehicles, equipment, tools, recreational toys, supplies and the infrastructure necessary to manage a large property.You don't have to start from scratch.WATER & INFRASTRUCTUREThe property currently has an artisanal/private well supplying the home and farm, with access to public water also expected to be available.This gives the property an important infrastructure advantage for both residential and agricultural use.For buyers considering Costa Rican acreage, water availability is one of the issues that should always be investigated carefully during due diligence—and having an existing water source is an important starting point.MORE THAN A RANCH — A DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITYWith more than 42,000 m² of land, the property offers something that simply cannot be created after the fact:SPACE.There is room to envision additional agricultural projects, equestrian facilities, gardens, orchards, recreational areas or other permitted improvements.The possibilities will depend upon zoning, water availability, municipal requirements and the buyer's intended use, but the sheer scale gives you options that conventional residential properties simply don't provide.THE ATENAS ADVANTAGEThe property sits in the countryside of Concepción, Atenas, providing the tranquility many international buyers seek while remaining close to town.Atenas offers a particularly attractive Central Valley lifestyle:Mountain sceneryA temperate climateAn established international communityRestaurants and everyday servicesAgricultural and rural surroundingsConvenient access to Route 27And from this property, you can enjoy those advantages without giving up the privacy that comes with substantial acreage.FOR THE BUYER WHO WANTS MOREThis property could be particularly compelling for someone looking for:A PRIVATE FAMILY RANCHA substantial home surrounded by land, animals and nature.AN EQUESTRIAN ESTATEExisting acreage and livestock infrastructure provide a strong foundation.AN AGRICULTURAL PROPERTYRoom for gardens, crops, livestock or other permitted agricultural projects.A MULTIGENERATIONAL ESTATEMain residence plus separate caretaker/guest accommodation.A PRIVATE COUNTRY RETREATA large piece of Costa Rica where privacy—not proximity to neighbors—is the defining feature.A LONG-TERM LAND INVESTMENTA substantial tract of land in the Atenas countryside with existing improvements and infrastructure.WHY THIS PROPERTY IS DIFFERENTIt is
