Finca Pura Vida
Property overview
On 1.3 hectares in San Pedrito de Cajón, Finca Pura Vida functions as a fully self-sufficient property with a 10 x 5 meter pool, three fish ponds stocked with tilapia and koi, a 24-panel solar system charging a 15 kWh lithium battery bank, and over 300 fruit trees — 80 to 100 already producing bananas, plantains, jackfruit, coconuts, papayas, and more. The main home delivers over 400 square meters of living and usable space with high-quality Amarillon hardwood flooring throughout.
The house was completely rebuilt and modernized by the current owners, combining an original wooden structure with a newer wing into a single cohesive home. It comes almost fully furnished, including a full appliance set — refrigerator, chest freezer, washing machine, dryer, and backup generator. Water arrives via mains or a private spring. Power comes from the grid or the solar array, providing true grid-independence capability.
A greenhouse provides partial food independence year-round, and bamboo throughout the property offers building material for future projects. Three ponds and a small river bordering the land add both lifestyle and ecological value.
San Pedrito de Cajón is a peaceful rural community, and properties built to this level of self-sufficiency and infrastructure don't surface often. For buyers seeking genuine off-grid capability combined with a productive food forest and comfortable modern living, this finca is one of the more complete examples currently available in the Southern Zone.
