DESCRIPCION
FINCA LAS NACIENTES
Owner: MILOGO S.A.
Location: Escobal District, Atenas Canton, Alajuela Province
This beautiful 200,901 m2 property is located on the western slope of the Cerros de Atenas in Escobal, Atenas, Costa Rica. FINCA LAS NACIENTES is divided into two main parcels. The first parcel of 37,036 m2 includes seven ready-to-build lots located near Calle Pública 707 that connects Escobal with the A 27 highway (3 km) and with the city of Atenas. The second parcel comprises two pristine estates with a total area of 163,865 m2.
Cerros de Atenas is commonly referred to as the "lungs of Atenas" because it is the place where several important freshwater springs are located that supply drinking water to Escobal and neighboring communities. Bordering FINCA LAS NACIENTES to the north is the “Cerros de Atenas” protected wild area. The impressive mountaintop is a vast swath of pristine land that is perpetually protected to ensure the integrity of the many aquifers. On the western boundary the property adjoins the Chiquero Creek, which flows from the Cerro year-round. FINCA LAS NACIENTES will forever remain enclosed and protected within these two natural corridors.
The property occupies the highest buildable area on the western slope of the Atenas Hills, ensuring that the peaks of the Hills that line its boundaries will remain a pristine natural corridor providing fresh water, clean air, wildlife, and breathtaking views. The location of the estate offers views of the surrounding valleys, the Gulf of Nicoya, and the Pacific Ocean. Its proximity to Highway 27 (José María Castro Madriz Highway) makes FINCA LAS NACIENTES approximately 30/35 minutes by car from the capital city of San Jose’ and Juan Santamaria Airport, 35/40 minutes from the beaches of the Central Pacific coast of Jaco and Herradura and 40 minutes from Puntarenas with ferry access to the Nicoya Peninsula.
The surroundings of Atenas and Escobal are increasingly attractive to foreign investors and retirees looking for safe and friendly communities to build their retirement and second home. Escobal's climate is favored as one of the best in Costa Rica for its altitude and refreshing mountain breezes. FINCA LAS NACIENTES' proximity to the A27 highway, San Jose, and the famous beach communities on the Central Pacific coast ensure that property values will steadily increase as Costa Rica's reputation as Central America's greenest and safest democracy grows.
