A102 16.5-acre farm with river, 3BR home, barn, workshop - $200,000, negotiable
In the hills less than 30 minutes east of Lake Arenal, a stone's throw from the Continental Divide, lies this beautiful farm with over 300 yards of frontage on the robust Rio Quequer. The farm includes an island in the river. Nearby is the village of La Cabanga. This is nothing like a midwestern farm in the United States. While the major part of the farm is almost level and gently contoured, the terrain slopes down sharply to the river (thereby relieving any fear of flooding) and old-growth forest covers a substantial part of the slope. Also, there are no row crops. Instead, the terrain has been developed for beauty with large swaths of lawn accented with many fruit trees of differnt types as well as ornamentals. The owners have partly finished a viewing platform which enhances enjoyment of the surrounding hills and forests and the energetic river below. The home has 3 bedrooms and 1 bathroom and is more spacious than the usual Tico home. There is also an open-sided barn and a very strongly built workshop with an alarm. The location provides better than the usual Arenal-area time to the Central Valley because a few miles farther to the east, a traveller reaches at San Raphael de Guatuso the paved highway system leading to the cities of San Carlos, San Ramon, and San Jose.
The dorant Volcan tenorio rises impressively to the north.
The dormant Volcan Tenorio rises impressively a few miles north of the finca.

The finca has approximately 300 meters (over 300 yards) of river frontage.

A viewing platform, not yet roofed or tented, enables enjoyment of the complex mountain vista and the river below.
The owners have introduced many handsome landscaping elements such as this  special bamboo. The river surges into the forest which fills a large part of the southern part of the acreage.
Among the ornamentals introduced to the farm is this bamboo.
The acreage includes an island in the river and much old-growth forest.
