Orosi Valley (Cartago) - A rare find! This is a tremendous opportunity to acquire a major portion of the floor of the Orosi Valley! The location is fantastic, near the river and lake, with excellent mountain views all around and easy access. The 32-hectare (79-acre) property is all flat and usable, with about 1.5 kilometers (nearly one mile) of frontage along the main, paved road around the valley. The property has tremendous potential for a wide variety of activities, such as a hotel/resort, golf course, residential project or even for agricultural use.

The property is currently used for agricultural purposes, with 8.5 hectares (21 acres) of greenhouses, administration/maintenance buildings, etc., with the rest mostly planted in coffee. If someone were interested in using the property for agricultural purposes, the current infrastructure is, of course, a tremendous benefit (but, if not, it can simply be removed). There is also a 600-m2 (6,500-ft2) residential structure divided into five separate suites (each with three bedrooms, two baths, large living/dining area, and kitchen area), with an expansive view of the surrounding valley. This house has excellent potential as luxury suites for a hotel/B&B, a clubhouse for a golf course, etc. The quality of the construction is excellent, with fine hardwoods, excellent details, high ceilings, etc.

The property is located within the lower (flat) part of the valley, very close the lake and river (but out of the floodplain). The property is all usable and, therefore, has tremendous potential for a wide variety of uses (while there are other large properties available, most of them are on the slopes and, therefore, not all usable). It's rare for a property of this size to become available in the central, flat area of the valley.

The general Orosi Valley is a fantastic area that is rapidly growing in touristic appeal and has numerous attractions, including the nearby Tapantí National Park (gorgeous virgin rainforest), world-class whitewater rafting and kayaking, two public thermal baths and a five-star hot spring spa/resort, Lake Cachí and the Cachí Dam, several cultural landmarks (such as the oldest church still in operation, as well as the ruins of the very first church), quaint traditional towns, and the scenic beauty of a valley that many guidebooks say is the prettiest in the country. Just a short drive away is the Lankester Botanical Gardens, the Irazú and Turrialba Volcanos, the Basilica in Cartago (home to the country's patron saint and the destination of a yearly pilgrimmage that attracts over a million people). It's a fantastic area!

There are several different options for purchase:
- All 32 hectares (79 acres); or
- Just 18.5 hectares (46 acres), already with separate plot map; or
- Just 12.7 hectares (31 acres), already with separate plot map; or
- Just the 600-m2 house with some land around it; or
- An amount of land to be negotiated.

The base price of the property is US$17.20/m2 (or US$5,500,000 for the entire property), but that would vary depending on how much land was desired.
