EL ROBLE RIVERFRONT HAVEN | 45 acres with River, Waterfalls & Natural Pools

Where river canyons, waterfalls, and deep forest create a private mountain sanctuary

This land for sale in El Roble Pérez Zeledón offers 18.1 hectares of natural beauty and complete privacy. The property sits at an average of 900 meters above sea level, which creates a fresh climate and clean mountain air. It is located only 11 km from San Isidro de El General, yet it feels worlds away from noise, traffic, and development.
The land combines fertile soil, open pastures, forested areas, diverse fruit trees, and abundant water sources, making it ideal for agriculture, eco-tourism, or a private retreat.

Riverfront & Land Features

The property includes 1.5 km of crystal-clear river frontage. The river flows through a canyon of polished stones and forms multiple waterfalls and countless natural pools. Access to the river is exclusive, which ensures total privacy.
The topography is irregular and fertile, offering flat sections, rolling areas, and forested slopes. Several natural springs run year-round, including one salitre spring. These springs support domestic use, agriculture, and future off-grid systems.
Fruit production is already established. You will find mangosteen, lemon mandarin, oranges, sweet mandarins, cacao, plantain, banana, and avocado throughout the land.

Off-Grid Living & Potential

This is a fully off-grid property, and that is part of its value. There is no public water system or public electricity on-site. However, the river and natural springs provide reliable water, and the strong flow allows future owners to consider alternative systems such as solar or micro-hydro. Because services are not yet installed, the price remains significantly lower than comparable riverfront options of this size.
Furthermore, we can recommend trusted professionals who guide buyers through the water concession process. These connections make off-grid development easier, safer, and fully legal.
The property’s privacy makes it ideal for a private estate, eco-lodge, regenerative farm, or retreat center. In addition, the fertile land allows diverse agricultural projects—from citrus orchards to permaculture systems.
