EXCELENT OPPORTUNITY FOR INVESTMENT IN TOURISM:
The property is a farm of approximately 70 manzanas (121.45 Acres) in the
community called El Escambray, Río Abajo, at a distance of about 10 km of
the town Jalapa in the department of Nueva Segovia.
Description:
The farm is located
in the mountain area of Jalapa and three water springs originate inside the
property. Also, the main river of Jalapa runs through the farm with a
beautiful waterfall. Inside the farm you will also find traditional and
ecological coffee, sugarcane, plantains, bananas and natural forests at the
higher altitudes presenting a great diversity of plant species and animals,
including many orchids. With an altitude between 1,200 and 1,400 m., the
climate is always pleasant and cool. In the typical rural style house of the
farm lives at present a family of which 2 members are employed on the farm
as care-keeper and assistant. It is a very reliable, honest and hard working
family who is interested to keep living and working on the farm if the new
owner agrees.
The department of Nueva Segovia experiences a rapid process of tourism
development, turning itself in the future hot-spot of rural and ecological
tourism of Nicaragua due to its excellent and varied natural resources, its
climate and the existence of many small, rural, traditional and picturesque
communities which abound. Also it is important to note that Nicaragua is
considered the safest country of central America and that within Nicaragua,
Nueva Segovia is the safest department. The newly paved road from Ocotal to
Jalapa (which connects directly to the Pan American Highway) makes its very
ease to reach Jalapa all year round.
The principal tourist attractions in Nueva Segovia son; the colonial town
Ocotal; the historic city of Ciudad Antigua; the mountains Cerro de Jesús
and los Nubarrones; the hot water springs (some of them with medical
properties) of El Limón, Santa Barbara and El Porvenir and the town of
Jícaro with the historic mines of San Albino, to mention just a few. The
most popular tourist activities at present are, among others: living
together with traditional farm families; nature and adventure trails;
learning about traditional agricultural practices and cultures (tobacco,
coffee, maize, beans) and local handicrafts and culture (paintings,
folkloric dances, music).
The property for sale (known locally as Finca Selva Verde = Green Forest
Farm) presents an ideal opportunity to develop into a prime tourist
attraction and is already mentioned in the latest tourist guide of Loneley
Planet of Nicaragua – El Salvador (published in October 2006)!
Some examples of possible tourist investments in the farm are: establishing
a mountain Hotel / Eco lodge; nature / adventure trails; orchid and
butterfly gardens; natural pools for swimming or fish production; hydro
electricity.
In the area are good opportunities as well to establish strategic alliances
with other (tourism) investors like Cerro de Jesús Mountain Coffee Company
and Hotel El Pantano (www.nortenica.com/elpantano) which also offers tours
and excursions in the area.
