Ciudad Colon

 

One of the last remaining small towns in the western suburbs of San Jose, Ciudad Colon Real Estate offers a unique blend of tradition and modern convenience. Located just to the west of Santa Ana and Escazu, Ciudad Colon is the final frontier—a piece of old Costa Rica, combining the everyday conveniences of restaurants, banks, and shops as new development creeps in, with the true feeling of a typical Costa Rican town. As most quintessential Costa Rican towns go, Ciudad Colon’s center wraps around a community park, church, and soccer field. It spills out on either side with the perfect combination of sodas (local restaurants where you will likely find a family cooking typical Costa Rican meals), bars, small-town shops and services, and residential neighborhoods on the outskirts. It is still a walking town, where walking from home to the grocery store, or even the corner store, is still a reality. It is still a place where, like Cheers, everybody knows your name. For those exploring commercial real estate opportunities, Ciudad Colon offers a rare chance to invest in a community where tradition and modernity coexist, creating a unique atmosphere for both residential and commercial development.

 

Ciudad Colon is close enough to the modern-day hustle and bustle of the city and the more populated suburbs of Escazu and Santa Ana, while truly feeling a world apart. The area's geography is unique, with the mountain luxury setting to the east, which is host to many gated communities like Cerro Colon, Altamira, and others, and to the west, you will find the breathtaking canyon and mountains of El Rodeo. This area is quickly becoming a destination for the outdoor enthusiast seeking a breath of fresh air, taking advantage of the newly designed Senderos Colon. Senderos Colon, designed by the land owners to offer an escape for bikers, runners, hikers, and dog lovers, is an escape from the city that while just minutes away, takes them a world apart.
