Description
This 7-hectare (17 acre) property on the outskirts of the town of Hojancha is a working farm and country getaway for its present owners, who split their time between the property and Costa Rica’s Central Valley. Presently, it’s used to graze cattle, grow coffee, sugar cane and yucca, and supports numerous fruit trees and a sizeable teak grove – much of which is ready to be harvested and put to use. It also has a 3-bedroom home on the banks of the sparkling Rio Nosara, which flows through the property. A classic Costa Rican casa de campo, the rustic house was hand-built by one of the owners (a builder) using home-grown hardwoods.
The true beauty of the property lies in its potential, including several excellent building sites with river frontage or mountain views, significant road frontage, and a great deal of underutilized arable land. Opportunities could include significantly increasing shade grown coffee production and further expanding and diversifying other crops – creating a profitable integrated and sustainable farm. Unlike most of Guanacaste, water is abundant. A green development, retreat, or resort in the heart of Costa Rica’s Blue Zone could take advantage of Hojancha’s growing popularity with people from around the world seeking a safe, tranquilo, affordable, and beautiful refuge.
