Full Description:
Rio Claro is N.E. of Golfito, from the center of town to this large 8-bedroom Home perched above Rio Claro, it will be about 23k or about 12 miles.
The home sits on a ridge top above the small town of Rio Claro, in the middle of the forest.
I see opportunities for the future. Golfito is expanding our New Marina is coming along nicely, shops are being constructed now and a ‘branded Mariott’ is being constructed, see here https://www.livegolfito.com and here https://www marinabahiagolfito.com.
Golfito is sure to expand, and folks have begun to show more interest. We do not have an abundance of good places to stay near the Golfito Coastal areas. I know many of you enjoy Golfito for its water aspect, being able to ‘connect’ with the boating lifestyle and perhaps just transport between communities. Puerto Jimenez on the Osa, Golfito, Zancudo Beach, Pavones or in between is something other beachfront communities cannot offer. We are fortunate to have the Gulf (Golfo Dulce) to enjoy, a natural protected Gulf, ringed with mountains, visited by dolphins and whales It’s a wonderful opportunity to live nearby.
This new listing can be viewed as an interesting opportunity to be near the Gulf and the Southern Pacific Ocean, at the same time surrounded by peaceful nature and slightly cooler temperatures (elevation is nearly 1000 feet) Golfito does not have many ‘vacant or remote areas left to develop’, the town was home to the United Fruit Company of the Chiquita Banana Era, the town is quite developed and populated. Living in Golfito means movement, people and yes, noise is associated with people and movement. If you want to be away from this type of environment, you’ll need to travel outside of town a bit, 25 kms or 20 minutes will make a world of difference.
Naturally, water views are nice, but options are few in our area, further south towards Zancudo Beach or Pavones they also have limited Ocean Views. Our topography doesn’t allow, there are a lot of lowland palm farms, rice farms, cattle raising etc. Occasionally there will be ‘slight elevation’ or a hilltop, most have been built upon, 20 years ago you would have had your choice.
Soon these newer options will be gone too.
Property Description
Heading out of Golfito on the main road and 24 kilometers later we arrive at highway 2, also known as, ‘The Interamerican Highway’ and Rio Claro.
Chances are, as you are nearing Rio Claro you’ll notice the backdrop of the town is a mountain ridge getting closer to Rio Claro you will notice a Large White House sitting above the town. Within the past year I couldn’t help but notice someone had built up on this ridgeline it stands out. I’ve often wondered where the road was, it has been years since I’ve visited this mountain ridge, later I realized the road up, was a challenging country road which, years ago I had visited and had a couple of listings up that same mountain road. Back then the road was in poor condition, and we had to complete the trip to any of the properties on foot.
That has all changed, there is now a good graveled road and as we got closer to this large home we came upon a stretch of ‘pavement’ about 200 meters long, we realized it had been cemented. Impressive!
There are no other constructions to date up at the top, and this is 8 Acres is spread out with other open areas in which to build with Forest as the background.
For the right persons this could be an excellent opportunity. There are other larger lands that connect to these 8 acres and are For Sale, like the 100 Acres with Pastures, Primary Forests a Stream and Waterfall and Forest, hmm, more ideas occur.
House Description
The home has 8 Bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, a very large dining and living room. Kitchen too. The second floor has 2 large bedrooms with bathrooms and 3 slightly smaller rooms with balcony’s out the back looking over the forest with distant mountain views, these three bedrooms share a bathroom.
Main floor has one large bedroom and 3 smaller rooms and only one large bathroom downstairs.
The 2 smaller rooms (bedrooms) downstairs could be used as single rooms for rent or used as offices or other.
A large front porch, and old rustic Rancho with Views too across the road, (see pictures)
75 foot well with cement casing 3’ diameter
Plenty of Space for other constructions with Views! A very interesting property.
House and One Acre could be sold for $250,000, but the best option is buying the 8 acres to assure Privacy.
Apologizes, the link at bottom of this listing appears to be broken.
