Properties in Chía

Living in Chía

Chía is one of the most sought-after towns to live in on the Bogotá savanna. It sits just north of the city and offers the best of both worlds: the calm and greenery of a small town, with universities, clinics, shopping centers and schools only minutes away.

Who it is for

Chía is especially popular with families looking for more space, houses with gardens or country-style gated communities, and with people who work in northern Bogotá but want to live outside the city. It is also a good option for investors: being close to Universidad de La Sabana and to the business districts in northern Bogotá keeps rental demand steady.

You will find everything from apartments in gated complexes to country houses and small farms in its rural areas, with large lots and views of the hills.

Getting there and what is nearby

Chía connects to Bogotá via the Autopista Norte, the Carretera Central del Norte (Carrera Séptima) and the Chía–Cajicá bypass. Travel times depend heavily on the time of day, so it is worth trying the commute at rush hour before deciding.

Nearby you have Universidad de La Sabana and its clinic, shopping centers such as Fontanar and Centro Chía, many country schools, and the shops and restaurants around the town square.

What to check before buying in Chía

  • Road access: in rural areas, check the condition of the road and the available transport.
  • Utilities: for country houses, confirm the water supply and wastewater system.
  • Land use: if you plan to renovate or build, check what the town's zoning plan allows.

At Rooted House we help you with the search and with reviewing the paperwork. See the properties we currently have in Chía below, or message us if you are looking for something specific.
