About Permaculture Farm And Bodega

Unprecedented, a staggering 26-hectare permaculture farm awaits, teeming with approximately 80 animals and a plethora of fruit and vegetable species. Nestled 600 meters above the encompassing countryside, this hidden gem offers invigorating mountain breezes, billion-dollar views, and a prestigious two-star ECOLOGICAL BLUE FLAG accreditation. Encompassing 17 hectares of primary (old-growth) jungle, this oasis is a sanctuary connected to power, internet, water, and robust cell phone signal. Just a stone's throw away from a local village and a short drive from the Pan-American Highway (National Route 2), dotted with towns and all essential amenities – prepare to be amazed!

As you veer off the Pan-American Highway onto the access road leading to the farm, a meandering unpaved route ascends through mountains and jungles, unveiling ever-changing vistas of lush forests, flatlands, and the ocean below. Situated a few hundred meters from the access road, the farm spans several ridges and a serene valley where homes, animal enclosures, a greenhouse, and plantations reside. Pastures and jungle-clad hills envelop the farm, caressed by a cool mountain breeze that bestows a refreshing ambiance, contrasting the hot and humid conditions below.

The owner's desire is for the fortunate buyer to embrace the care of all farm animals, including horses, chickens, goats, ducks, and turkeys, all thriving and well-maintained. The diverse inventory of plants and crops is vast, featuring citrus plants, bananas, sweet potatoes, coffee, pineapple, mangosteen, pepper, tomatoes, herbs, and spices, among a myriad of other fruits, vegetables, and herbs scattered across the property. A greenhouse houses delicate plants, while compost heaps and an artesian well provide fertile soil and water for sustenance.

With over 65% of the land comprising primary growth jungles, the property holds significant value under the Payment for Environmental Services program. Forested areas are protected through contracts for carbon sequestration, biodiversity preservation, water regulation, and landscape enhancement, offering hassle-free income streams for the landowner.

The property's central hub features a house, guest house, bodega, animal enclosures, and a greenhouse, surrounded by crops and interconnected by trails leading to rivers, swimming holes, and a waterfall. A scenic 15-minute walk through the primary growth jungle leads to a ridge boasting spectacular views of rainforest-covered mountains and the Pacific Ocean, perfect for a potential house site with unforgettable vistas.
