Located in the hillside community of Iriria on Calle Paraíso, this 5,500 sqm titled lot offers a rare opportunity to secure raw jungle land just 1 kilometer from the beaches of Punta Uva.
Set on a steep slope with access from both the upper and lower boundaries, the property presents strong potential for elevated construction designed to capture mountain views. Surrounded by larger parcels and thoughtfully developed neighboring homes, the area is known for its privacy, natural setting, and community-minded ownership.
While the land remains untouched and currently not easily walkable, it provides a compelling canvas for buyers prepared to work with the terrain and unlock its long term potential.
Long Description
Situated within the small, nature-focused community in Punta Uva, this 5,500 sqm titled lot presents an opportunity to develop in one of the South Caribbean’s most desirable and steadily growing areas. Located along Calle Paraíso and approximately 1 kilometer from the beach, the community of “Iriria” combines proximity to the coastline with a more elevated, private setting.
The land itself is raw and heavily forested, with a steep slope that defines both the challenge and the opportunity of the property. Access is available from both the upper and lower boundaries, allowing for flexibility in how a future build could be approached. With the right architectural vision, this topography lends itself to a design that captures elevated mountain views, natural airflow, and a strong connection to the surrounding jungle.
While the property has not been cleared and is currently difficult to walk, neighboring developed parcels provide a clear reference point for what is possible. Homes in the immediate area have been thoughtfully positioned to work with the terrain rather than against it, resulting in private residences that take full advantage of the landscape and views. Based on this context, it is reasonable to expect similar potential here, with mature trees and a natural canopy contributing to both privacy and long term value.
The lot is outside of any protected or reserve areas, and past permissions have allowed for up to 75% development coverage, offering flexibility for buyers considering a primary residence, guest structures, or a multi-unit concept designed around the natural slope.
Iriria is a community defined by larger lot sizes, intentional development, and a shared respect for the environment. There are no formal HOA fees, but property owners collaborate on practical matters such as road maintenance and the entrance gate. The result is a neighborhood that maintains a sense of cohesion while preserving privacy and individual space.
Given the current condition of the land, access for showings may require coordination with the seller to clear a basic path or perimeter. This is a property best suited for buyers who are comfortable evaluating land based on topography, location, and surrounding development rather than immediate visual presentation.
As a titled jungle lot in Punta Uva, this offering is positioned for those looking beyond turnkey ease and toward long term potential — where thoughtful design and the natural characteristics of the land can come together to create something distinctive.
