Farm in Las Tapias, Santo Domingo

Welcome to "Las Tapias", an impressive 2,836-hectare estate with majestic Andean landscapes. This property represents an exceptional investment opportunity for agricultural, livestock, and low-impact tourism development projects.

📍 Strategic Location and Access Situated at an altitude ranging between 2,600 and 4,000 m.a.s.l., the estate enjoys a privileged location: • Just 10 km from the picturesque town of Santo Domingo. • Equidistant (75 km) from the vibrant cities of Mérida and Barinas, on the Apartaderos - Barinas Troncal highway. • Direct and convenient access from the National Highway through a branched service road. • Internal dirt and gravel roads in good general condition (with only a small section requiring maintenance).

💧 Abundance of Water Resources Water is undoubtedly the most valuable characteristic of this property: • Constant flow: Internal streams maintain water year-round (with a slight 25-30% decrease during drought). • Páramo water: Border streams are fed by glacially-formed lagoons, maintaining their flow consistently. • Installed irrigation: Features sprinkler and micro-sprinkler irrigation systems fed directly by the streams, guaranteeing efficient management.

🏡 Infrastructure and Services The estate is equipped to meet modern operational needs: • Dwellings: Three structures available; a picturesque "old house" made of adobe (ideal for restoration project due to its deteriorated state), a "new house" with finished concrete blocks (fair condition) and a third dwelling under construction. • Facilities: Two functional warehouses in good condition. • Electricity: Own central transformer supplying 110V and 220V power to the three lots of the property.
