Development Land for Sale in Santo Domingo, Heredia, Costa Rica — 33,143 m² (8.19 Acres) with Private Well NJA1363

This 33,143 m² (3.31 hectares, or 8.19 acres) development parcel is in San Miguel, Santo Domingo, in the province of Heredia. It lies between Tibás and San Miguel, borders Tibás and is a short distance north of San José. Its approved density is the maximum allowed, which makes room for a high-density residential condominium.

The land-use certificate (Certificado de Uso de Suelo) sets out the project’s potential. With an approved density of 83 homes per hectare, the land can hold a project of up to 275 residential units. The approved use is a residential condominium in an urban growth zone. Maximum lot coverage is 80%, which allows a large building footprint and an efficient project. About 80% of the land is level, which makes construction easier.

It is a corner lot with two frontages on public streets, 200 m (656 ft) from Route 32 (the Braulio Carrillo Highway) and 1 km (0.6 miles) from Lincoln School, a private school.

The property has its own deep well (Well AB-2474), backed by a complete final hydrogeological report. The recommended extraction rate is 5.0 liters per second (L/s), confirmed by a stable 24-hour pumping test. The water is potable and meets Costa Rica’s Drinking Water Regulation No. 32327-S, which supports the future extraction concession.

Due diligence has already identified the key permitting steps, which gives a clear roadmap toward construction. Environmental approval still has to be completed with SETENA, Costa Rica’s environmental review agency. The project must include a wastewater treatment plant. Specific setback determinations are pending with RECOPE, the state fuel company, because of a fuel pipeline, and with INVU, the national housing and urban planning institute, because the land borders the Virilla River. The land-use certificate must be endorsed by the municipality once the cadastral survey is linked to the registered property.

Its size, location, high-density zoning and favorable topography suit a residential development. The property also has mountain views and a variety of trees. There is currently a house, a storage building and stables on the land; these structures are not factored into the price, which leaves a clean slate for a new project.

An investor feasibility package with the land-use certificate and the hydrogeological report is available on request.
