Peakside Refuge in Upper San Francisco

Located near the end of the road in upper San Francisco de Rivas, this 3.4-hectare property offers a sense of elevation and calm while remaining only twelve minutes from Route 242. The land unfolds across several natural terraces, creating four distinct buildable sites that capture varied perspectives of the surrounding landscape. Each zone offers its own character, from open areas suited for primary residences to more sheltered corners ideal for guest cabins, gardens, or small-scale agricultural use. The views are among the most compelling features, opening directly toward Costa Rica’s highest peaks and the ridgelines leading into Chirripó National Park. Morning light moves cleanly across the property, illuminating the upper slopes and providing a remarkable sense of space and altitude. Water security is exceptional, with access to two legal and reliable sources: the Canaan Aqueduct and the Guadalupe Aqueduct. This rare dual supply strengthens the property’s suitability for residential development, retreat projects, or long-term homesteading. Quiet, spacious, and well-positioned within the Chirripó Valley, this offering combines privacy with accessibility, views with usability, and essential infrastructure with the serenity of highland living.
