Description:
Welcome to a very special offering, Finca Mistica. This 436 acre parcel of land is located at the foot of La Fila Chonta Mountain range, approximately 20 minutes north of Quepos. Upon your arrival to the entrance, you feel as though you have entered another world. The interior roads and rolling terrain are lined with flowering plants and mature fruit trees, you can hear the flowing waters of the Rio Damitas as you walk along through the property. The most magical area of the property is along the river, where you will find multiple falls with easy access. Each waterfall offers a unique experience; Some with 2 meter deep swimming holes, another with a cavern, another with a height of 12 meters, others like a gorge perfect for relaxing. The cleansing energy of the river and the natural springs bubbling up from the ground make it clear that this land is abundant with a commodity that many have come to deeply value, that being pure water.
Found along the river is a cacao orchard with approximately 100 trees and throughout the finca one will find mature fruit trees such as durian, nance, guaba, citrus, avocado, mamonchinos, among many others. Water brings life, and this means the rainforest is teeming with a diversity of flora and fauna.
Finca Mistica also holds multiple stunning ocean view building sites. On the far side of the river, there are at minimum 5 usable areas for building with ocean views, some of which are 180 degrees spanning from Manuel Antonio to Parrita, in addition to other jungle view sites. On the main side of the finca, where the caretakers home is located is a very large usable green area for building, with public water and electricity to the site. From this area one can continue up the mountain where the first large ocean view site can be found only 25 meters above. Continuing up the mountain from this site you will arrive to the Meadow, a large open area measuring nearly 2 acres with both ocean view and forest building areas. From this area the farm continues up the mountain, through the neighboring preserve land and arriving to the 159 acres of primary and old growth forest which is included in the sale and is ideal for conservation through FONAFIFO.
There are already interior roads in place, others have been cut but require improvement, there is water management in place by way of coverts and drainage, as well as an old deep well which could be utilized as a water source following the registration of a concession. Hyrdo electric and solar would be ideal options in order to supply electricity to some areas of the finca. There is a full-time caretaker who has worked the property for 20 years and is an invaluable asset to maintain, as well as a full time property manager who can help oversee all aspects related to the property.
Finca Mistica is ideal for anyone looking to have a private estate property where they are immersed in nature, or for anyone desiring to establish an intimate eco tourism project to share with the public. Finca's such as this are now very difficult to find and the beauty of this parcel is one to not only be cherished, but also protected. The future of Finca Mistica belongs to the individual who desires to conserve her mature forests and protect her pure waters, to someone who sees the value in being a steward of the land, all the while enjoying her bounty in a sustainable and conscious way.
