About this property
Las Nubes Grand Estate is a substantial rural property spanning 262,600 square meters in San Rafael de Vásquez de Coronado, San José, situated in the notable area of Las Nubes. Covering around 26.3 hectares, this estate is a unique offering in the Central Valley Costa Rica real estate market, blending size, agricultural heritage, and strategic location near the capital.

The property has direct paved road access along a main road and is connected to public water and electricity services, making it suitable for various future uses. Historically, the estate functioned as a family-owned dairy farm, with approximately 1,500 m² of existing infrastructure for a milking facility and cattle housing. This infrastructure supports ongoing livestock operations, the potential for an agroecological project, or a thoughtful redesign of the land for residential development or a boutique community, in line with its current agricultural and livestock zoning. Located just 40 minutes from San José, the estate offers a rural mountain environment with a pleasant climate and a strong dairy tradition, while remaining close to supermarkets, private schools, medical services, and commercial centers. This combination of a countryside feel and urban accessibility is increasingly rare in properties of this size within the Greater Metropolitan Area.

Las Nubes de Coronado is recognized for its rural-residential character, temperate climate, and proximity to the capital while maintaining its mountain identity.
