8.77 ACRES – Private Land Just 20 Min to Dominical, Beautiful Mountain Views, Legal Water, Electrici

Property overview

At 8.77 acres (35,527 m²) in the hills of Platanillo, this property sits on a scenic ridge with panoramic views of forested valleys and mountain ranges — and 20 minutes from the surf breaks and beaches of Dominical. The land has been maintained carefully by the current owner, with fruit trees and planted trees throughout, an internal access road connecting potential building sites, and a barn in good condition suitable for agricultural use, storage, or conversion to a workshop.

The infrastructure that typically drives land costs in Costa Rica is already in place here: electricity runs to the property line, a private well with pump room is installed, and a water concession from a stream along the lower boundary provides a secondary water source. The property fronts a public road with no development restrictions, giving a future buyer genuine flexibility across residential, agricultural, and commercial uses without the legal complications that setback requirements and access easements often create.

No 4WD vehicle is required for access — an important practical detail in an area where road conditions vary significantly between properties. The elevated ridge position provides consistent cooling breezes throughout the day. Platanillo's village services are 5 minutes away; San Isidro de El General, with hospitals, major shopping, and regional services, is 30 minutes.

At $195,000 for nearly 9 acres with installed utilities, an internal road system, established tree cover, and direct public road frontage between Platanillo and Dominical, this property offers development potential that would typically cost significantly more to assemble from scratch in this region.
