Lake Arenal, Costa Rica, real estate for sale
106a Water abounds with 12 springs, swim pond, 7,500 gallon tank, streams
This 65-acre property has water way beyond its current needs. It helps supply the town of Nuevo Arenal from just one of its twelve springs. Five of the springs supply the water needs of this productive finca itself. There's way more than enough water for the house and guest cabin, the hundreds of fruit, coffee, and other trees as well as the two man-made lakes and a pond, where the flow of water is constant. There is more than enough to supply the 10 homes that can be built on the already prepared building sites. The hard work has been professionally and cleverly done. Buying at this low price of $585,000 in this down economy, a bright new owner can anticipate extraordinary return on the investment when the economy improves.
The clear, constantly refreshed water is great for swimming. This healthy stream constantly brings fresh water to the swimming pond year-round.
