This is not just raw land — it’s a buildable lot inside a living permaculture village.

We’re offering a 1.52-acre titled lot located within Saint Michael’s Sustainable Community, a long-standing permaculture-focused eco-village on Costa Rica’s Central Pacific coast.

If you’re looking to plug into an existing regenerative system rather than start from scratch, this property is designed for that.

🌿 The Community (Why This Is Special)

This land sits inside an intentional permaculture community, not adjacent to one.

The community includes:

🌳 Established food forests

💧 Water-conscious design and shared sustainability principles

🐟 Aquaponics / regenerative food systems

🏡 Eco-architecture ethos (earth-friendly, passive cooling, green roofs, etc.)

🤝 Like-minded residents focused on regenerative living, resilience, and community

This setup dramatically reduces the learning curve and isolation that often comes with rural permaculture projects.

📐 The Property

Size: ~1.52 acres (0.62 ha)

Status: Fully titled, buildable

Topography: Elevated with jungle surroundings

Views: Ocean views now, 180° Pacific views possible with a second story or rooftop design. Also jungle views and mountain views.

Wildlife: Monkeys, macaws, toucans, and rich biodiversity

🌊 Location

Region: Bejuco, Puntarenas (Central Pacific)

Beach: Minutes to Bejuco Beach (surf, swimming, quiet coastline)

Climate: Tropical, ideal for year-round growing

Access: Good road access, close to services while still private

🌱 Ideal Uses

Permaculture homestead

Eco-home or natural build

Regenerative retreat or tiny-home project

Long-term land hold inside a sustainability-focused community

💰 Price

$160,000 USD

Hello! Have you sold your listing yet? We are wanting to look at the ecovillage or intentional commmunities in Costa Rica on our trip down in late June. I have to help my father with signing and moving in to his new home there near Plantanillo.
We would love to talk details about your options.
Also do you have anywhere for guests to stay while visiting you?
I woukd love to ask some questions about laundry and cleaning products used in any vommunity shared spaces at your lovely location.
Thanka in advance

Hi Adelheid! The property is still available for purchase. I'm happy to answer your questions - I can be reached at john.oden@gmail.com. I don't personally have guest accommodations but there are affordable, quality hotel options in the area I can advise you about. In terms of laundry and cleaning products, the general rule is to not use any poisons on your property. We don't typically micro-manage each other to the level of reviewing cleaning products but our general preference would be organic / biodegradable.  
 
And then the entire population worshiped me like unto a god. Well, me and this tiny ad:
