Property for sale in Costa Rica

About this property

This property features a professionally planted and managed hardwood plantation located in Costa Rica, specifically on the central Pacific coast. The plantation is part of a showcase project recognized by the FAO-MINAE in 2016 for its sustainable forest restoration efforts. It encompasses a total of 339 hectares of pristine land, with 178 hectares dedicated to planting, including approximately 90 hectares of teak and around 88 hectares of native hardwood species. As of 2023, the plantation boasts a standing inventory of native species that are between 23 and 28 years old, allowing for immediate timber harvest returns for investors. Between 2015 and 2023, all 90 hectares of teak were harvested, and 28 hectares were replanted with high-performance clonal teak stock, which is currently growing above average and is managed under FSC® certification standards. The 88 hectares of native hardwood stands will provide midterm cash flow until the younger stocks mature. Additionally, there is potential for integrating cacao plantations into both the teak and native forest stands, which could generate revenue within 3 to 4 years of planting. The farms also include 149 hectares of natural forest that have been protected, serving as an environmental anchor and offering possibilities for future compensation under the Payment for Ecosystem Services program by FONAFIFO-MINAE. These natural forests are crucial for the region's flora and fauna. The BIRD farms are FSC® certified, with certification code NC-FM/COC-000152.3, and they offer spectacular views of the coastline and surrounding mountains, along with potential for future development.
