680 m² of land in the commercial heart of Santa Cruz de Guanacaste — behind the Fairgrounds and steps from Banco de Costa Rica.
Located less than 350 meters from the BCR branch in Santa Cruz and adjacent to the Fairgrounds (Campo Ferial), one of the canton's key landmarks and highest-traffic venues (fairs, events, and large public gatherings year-round). The lot sits within an area officially classified as commercial zone by the Ministry of Finance's land value study and the Municipality — the sector with the strongest buying, selling, and construction activity in the canton. Within a 300-meter radius you'll already find banks, supermarkets (Súper Compro, Colono), pharmacies, schools, universities, and the public health clinic (CCSS) — the kind of environment that sustains long-term value and demand for a business or commercial space.
The lot measures 680.49 m² with 13.65 m of frontage on a paved, two-lane street that's passable year-round, with a public transit stop right in front — ideal conditions for a business that depends on foot and vehicle traffic. All utilities are already installed (water, electricity, telephone, internet, cable, storm drainage), and the property is free of liens, annotations, and subdivisions, which streamlines any purchase or land-use change process.
The property currently includes a structure of approximately 212 m² in good condition (three bedrooms, two bathrooms, kitchen, living/dining room, covered porch, and carport), plus a 64 m² annex. This gives a buyer real flexibility: generate rental income while planning the commercial project, adapt the existing structure into offices or a storefront, or develop the lot from scratch, taking advantage of its regular shape and frontage.
Santa Cruz continues to grow as the commercial and services hub of Guanacaste's coastal region, just 40 minutes from Daniel Oduber International Airport and the beaches of Tamarindo, Avellanas, Conchal, and Flamingo Marina — a steady flow of residents, tourists, and businesses that supports the area's rising property values.
Why this is a business opportunity
1. Land classified within a commercial zone, in Santa Cruz's fastest-expanding sector
2. Strategic location behind the Fairgrounds, a high-traffic site during the canton's fairs and events
3. Steps from banks, supermarkets, schools, universities, and the CCSS clinic — steady foot and vehicle traffic
4. 13.65 m of frontage on a paved road with public transit — ideal for a business or storefront
5. Existing structure can generate immediate rental income while you develop your project
6. Free of liens and subdivisions — a straightforward purchase process
7. All utilities already installed — no additional infrastructure investment needed
8. Close to Guanacaste's tourist corridor (beaches and airport 40 minutes
away)
