Discover a rare opportunity to own 641 m² of titled beachfront land on Playa Potrero, with direct beach access, stunning Potrero Bay views, and substantial development groundwork already completed.

Long Description
A rare opportunity to acquire a titled, fee-simple beachfront lot on Playa Potrero with significant development groundwork already completed. While other parcels may be available nearby at a similar price, this 641 m² property offers a unique combination of location, existing infrastructure, environmental study approval, architectural planning, and a registered view protection agreement that sets it apart.
Located directly on Playa Potrero, one of Guanacaste’s most established and livable beaches, the property enjoys direct beach access and open views across the calm waters of Potrero Bay. The beach stretches approximately 2.5 miles (4 km), offering a relaxed coastal setting with swimming, boating, restaurants, shops, and the nearby Marina Flamingo all within easy reach. Liberia International Airport is approximately one hour away, with CRIA and La Paz international schools also conveniently located nearby.
One of the property’s greatest advantages is that much of the groundwork required to move toward construction is already in place. Highlights include a SETENA environmental viability (D1) study, municipality approval of current plans, and installation of an active water meter. With the local ASADA managing water availability and maintaining a waitlist for new water-availability letters, having an existing meter is an extremely valuable asset.
The sale also includes the architectural work of renowned Costa Rican architect Víctor Cañas. The proposed residence is approximately 484 m² over three levels, designed for construction within the current 291 m² buildable footprint created by maritime setbacks. The design places the main living areas toward the rear and raises the principal rooms to maximize views across Potrero Bay. Buyers can build the current concept, modify to suit specific preferences, or move forward with their own architectural team and builder.
A registered view-protection agreement with the two neighboring lot owners further enhances the property’s long-term appeal by helping preserve bay and ocean sightlines, including along the side boundaries.
With 641 m² of titled beachfront land, an active water meter, current environmental approval, approved municipal plans, architectural design by an internationally renowned Costa Rican architect, and protected ocean views, this property offers something that simply does not exist elsewhere in the area.
At $1,095,000 USD, the opportunity is defined not only by its beachfront location, but by the substantial work and infrastructure already completed—allowing a future owner to move forward with a significantly stronger foundation for development.
