Why this property

Discover an exceptional property nestled in Desamparados, San Mateo. Finca Sofia is an opportunity to create a self-sustainable retreat in a serene environment.

The existing home is a modern two-bedroom house with a swimming pool and a designer-like interior, furniture included, which makes it move-in ready. It runs off-grid on solar panels with lithium storage batteries, draws from its own well, and has security cameras already installed.

The gently sloped terrain offers versatility for gardening or further development, with a mountain creek adjacent and ample space to expand and plant. Privacy is absolute: the nearest neighbours are about a kilometre away.

Road access is via a municipality road, currently manageable with a 4x4; the road requires some work in collaboration with the municipality. Finca Sofia combines modern comfort with natural beauty and sustainable living — a retreat for those seeking peace, inspiring views and the authentic Pura Vida experience.
