About this property

This property consists of a 2,502 square meter land plot for sale in Vasquez De Coronado, San Jose, with a base price of $125,100, translating to $50 per square meter. Nestled in the heart of the lush mountainous area of Coronado, this lot offers a peaceful environment, a cool climate, and direct access to nature, while still being close to the capital. The lot features a 20-meter frontage on a paved public road and extends 125 meters deep. It provides a pleasant view of San Jose and the Braulio Carrillo mountains. A clean water stream from a spring runs at the back of the lot, ensuring no flood risk due to the elevation difference of over two meters between the stream and the lot. The area is experiencing significant development and is known for its tranquility and safety, with several new constructions located about 500 meters before reaching the lot. The environment is rich in nature, offering fresh air at all times, and is just 5 minutes from the center of Coronado. The land is situated in an agricultural zone near the city, allowing for various permitted uses, including agricultural, livestock, forestry, pig and poultry farming, agro-industry, hotels, restaurants, housing, and institutional purposes. Specifically, the residential land use permits 15% coverage (375 square meters) and 30% buildable floor area (750 square meters). The zoning regulations do not allow for lot segregation due to the low-density nature of the area, and the municipality has mandated a 5-meter setback at both the front and back. Utilities include electricity and telephone service, with water supplied by a rural aqueduct (ASADA) for a fixed fee, as there is no meter. There is also good cell signal, and satellite TV can be installed. The lot is surrounded by green areas, mature trees, and panoramic views of the valley and mountains. Access is via a public road, with available public services such as potable water, electricity, internet, and waste collection. The land is suitable for residential or agricultural use, making it ideal for a country house, single-family home, retreat cabin, or ecological project. It is located just 5 minutes from the center of Coronado and 40 minutes from San Jose. The lot is part of a safe, quiet community with a strong sense of environmental conservation, close to schools, supermarkets, medical centers, and recreational areas like natural trails and the Braulio Carrillo National Park. This property is perfect for those looking to build a country home, retire in a natural setting, start a tourism project, or simply invest in land with high appreciation potential.
