This milllion-dollar investment property reduced to $585,000 |
H106 4BR home on 65 lakeview acres with swimming lake, 10 building sites |
|
If not absolutely the best investment opportunity in Costa Rica, it ranks near the top, a beautiful property worth well over $1,000,000 now reduced to $585,000. An American civil engineer and his wife have spent years working to realize their plan for a spiritual community and have prepared it with excellent water and road infrastructure and 10 lovely lakeview building sites, each privately located among the trees. Health problems have curtailed their ability to travel between the United States and Costa Rica, so someone else will have the opportunity to realize the great promise of this extraordinary, ecologically intelligent endeavor. |

This swimming pond is constantly refreshed with pure spring water. |
This gently sloping though nicely complex property not only has a home and a guest casita but also scores of fruit trees in great variety. The owners in 9 years have made some wonderful improvements while at the same time preserving 20 acres of primary forest. Forested hills rise above it while many acres of protected forest lie below it. The owner is a civil engineer who has done sophisticated work on the infrastructure, including the electricity, water, and roads. The property is especially notable for its wealth of water sources. There are 12 springs, 5 of which are used to supply the property. Just one of the springs helps supply water for the town of Nuevo Arenal. The owners have carefully developed the land so that the beauty is preserved. 10 lakeview building sites are hidden in the forest. 3.5 kilometers of private interior roads access the plantels (building sites) and other features. Located 2.5 kilometers from the paved lake highway near Nuevo Arenal, the property has a paved road from the gate to the house and the nearby guest cabin, which also has a large garage. Nuevo Arenal is about 10 minutes away, Tilaran about 35. Though this property has been valued at well over $1,000,000, the owners have reduced the price to $585,000. |

This plantel or cleared building site is one of 10 hidden among the farm's 20 acres of forest. Lovely forested lanes lead to each. A small high-quality gated community can easily take form here. Road, water, and electrical infrastructure is already in place. There are orchards and gardens that could be commercially developed. |
