About This Property
Perched high in the mountains of Costa Rica's Chirripó region, this extraordinary property lives up to its name in every sense — offering 360-degree panoramic views that stretch endlessly across the highlands, where golden light washes over the landscape each evening in some of the most breathtaking sunsets the country has to offer.
The surrounding community is as compelling as the setting itself. A short drive brings you into the village of Canaan, where community life is warmly alive — families gather every weekend on the plaza for volleyball, soccer, and children's bike rides, embodying the unhurried, connected spirit of mountain living.
Nearby you'll find a butterfly dome, local mountain eateries, and the beloved Kapi Kapi health food store and café. All of these villages are embraced by La Amistad Transnational Park, one of Central America's largest conservation projects and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, alongside Chirripó National Park, home to the country's highest peaks. San Isidro de El General, the regional hub, is just 40 minutes away, and the Pacific coast is within 90 minutes — making it effortless to move between mountain serenity and ocean adventure.
The property itself is a rare multi-home estate comprised of five residences of varying sizes and configurations, thoughtfully designed to offer privacy for couples and families alike. A new house is currently under construction, featuring five bedrooms, hot tubs, and generous common areas. With over 290 positive Airbnb reviews, the income-generating potential is already well established. The estate is equally well-suited as a yoga or retreat center, an event venue for weddings and ceremonies, or a destination for community building of any kind.
Adding a fascinating layer of history, the land was originally conceived as the site of a large-scale hydroelectric project intended to power much of the Pérez Zeledón region — a vision that never came to fruition, but left behind an abundance of flowing water and a massive water retention pool that holds tremendous potential, whether reimagined as a grand swimming pool or repurposed for an aquaponic growing system
This is not simply a property — it is a place where vision, nature, and community converge at the top of the world.
