Productive Agricultural Property with Two Rivers, Water Rights & Development Potential
Located in El Hatillo Abajo, District of San Francisco, Veraguas, just 21 kilometers from Santiago on the road to Santa Fe, this exceptional 52-hectare (520,000 m²) farm offers an outstanding opportunity for agriculture, livestock, eco-tourism, or a private countryside estate.
Known for its abundant water resources, fertile soils, and strategic location, this productive property is bordered by two of the region's most important rivers—the Santa María River and the Gatú River—providing year-round water and creating a truly unique natural setting.
The asking price also includes an important added value: the seller is willing to repair the property's internal gravel (tosca) access road prior to closing, making access significantly more convenient for the new owner.
