Casa Chirripó Cloud Retreat, San Pedro, ­ 11905

Property Description

Set amidst the verdant mountains of San Jerónimo in Pérez Zeledón, this distinctive property combines contemporary comfort with the natural beauty of Costa Rica’s highlands. Encompassing approximately 7,500 m², the grounds feature an established coffee plantation, frontage along two rivers and captivating views towards the mountains of Chirripó National Park. The two-storey main residence offers an inviting open-plan layout with one bedroom and two bathrooms. Extensive use of wood brings warmth and character to the modern interiors, while the newly appointed furnishings create a comfortable, welcoming atmosphere. The contemporary kitchen enjoys beautiful mountain views, connecting everyday living with the surrounding landscape. Terraces extending along two sides of the home provide generous spaces for outdoor living. Whether enjoying a quiet morning coffee or watching the changing light across the mountains, these areas offer a natural extension of the interior. The bordering rivers add a special dimension to the property, with picturesque natural swimming holes and opportunities for trout fishing. Beyond the existing coffee plantation, the grounds offer space for additional fruit trees and a productive garden. A second house occupies a separate parcel in the upper section of the property and benefits from its own water and electricity connections. Positioned directly along the road leading towards the national park, it presents attractive possibilities for independent use. Subject to the necessary approvals, the building could be transformed into a welcoming café for hikers and visitors or renovated into a holiday rental, creating the potential for an additional income stream. San Jerónimo provides access to Chirripó National Park via the San Jerónimo–Sabana de los Leones route. The surrounding area offers a wealth of opportunities for hiking, guided excursions and day trips, making the property an appealing base for nature enthusiasts. Everyday convenience is also close at hand, with a supermarket approximately two minutes from the residence. The San Jerónimo area has an average elevation of approximately 1,400 metres above sea level, although the property’s precise elevation remains to be confirmed. This mountain setting generally brings milder daytime conditions and cooler evenings than the coastal lowlands. Sunnier, drier weather typically characterises the early months of the year, followed by a lush green season, generally from May into November, when rainfall and occasional mountain mist enrich the landscape. An appealing opportunity to enjoy contemporary mountain living, cultivate a connection with the land and explore the potential of a complementary hospitality venture in one of Pérez Zeledón’s scenic highland communities.
