Hacienda estate San Román exemplifies the rare alignment of legacy, function, and scale. Set just outside the community of Becanchén in Mexico’s Yucatán, this former sugarcane hacienda encompasses 984 hectares of contiguous, fully fenced land. Its provenance as a productive cattle and agricultural estate is matched by a robust infrastructure, making it a singular opportunity for investment, ecotourism, or rural enterprise.
Direct access via a broad, government-maintained road provides ease of movement between the primary and secondary ranch parcels. The main hacienda compound covers approximately 650 square meters, anchored by a residence with spacious living and dining areas, a traditional kitchen, and five bedrooms with three bathrooms. Additional structures comprise a secondary workers’ house, service quarters, multiple warehouses, and machinery sheds, together supporting long-term operations and accommodating community.
Water security is ensured by a deep well between 120 and 160 meters, a new pump, and a solar energy system with generator backup. Six corrals, twelve paddocks, stables, feeding and drinking troughs—most renovated within three years—sustain current livestock, including thirty cattle and eight horses, with historical capacity exceeding a thousand head. Period artifacts and original machinery recall the estate’s agricultural heritage, while the land’s virgin soils—Kancab, Calché, and Cacalum—remain highly valued for diverse agricultural pursuits.
The estate’s ecological rhythm is shaped by stands of cedar, mahogany, and fruit trees. Beehives, natural waterholes, and preserved wetlands enhance both biodiversity and aesthetic. Local access to labor and the proximity to Tekax, a designated Pueblo Mágico, further elevate its standing as a rural investment of authenticity and potential. In every respect, this hacienda estate San Román offers a unique convergence of history, productivity, and forward-looking value.

Avoid common pitfalls
International buyers often waste valuable time on duplicate, outdated or misleading online listings, especially since nearly 30% of luxury homes never appear on the public market. Seller’s agents represent the seller’s interests, not the buyer’s. Even requesting information about a property can result in a seller’s agent registering you as their “client” without your consent.
