Owner now offers financing to help someone buy this fine home or B&B
H115 Lakeview 3BR 2BA house, cabina, workshop, 1.5 acres - $290,000
Here is a versatile as well as beautiful property of very high quality, one that could easily function immediately as a B&B. Situated on the lake highway on the dam side of Nuevo Arenal, the property is just a couple of minutes from the town and also very close to one of Costa Rica's top gourmet restaurants, Gingerbread. An automatic gate with keypad and speaker opens to a paved driveway leading upward to a broad level site with expansive lawns, lovely surrounding woods, and wonderful vistas. The original home has been completely remodeled and upgraded, so much so that the original small kitchen is now a large wet-bar leading to larger super-outfitted main kitchen with professional gas range, custom hardwood cabinetry, and, now, being installed as this is written, granite countertops. Beyond the kitchen is a laundry room which also opens to the outside. Down a hallway from the living room are three bedrooms - all with lakeview windows - culminating in the master suite.There is a locking two-car attached garage The neighboring cabina has two studio apartments, each with its own bathroom. A fine large shop building is far enough from the house to keep the family furniture maker from disturbing the pleasant sounds of motorless nature around the house. Included in the sale is an adjacent lot of approximately an acre. Since the gated property is entered from the tourist-heavy lake highway just before Nuevo Arenal (on the way from the volcano), it has excellent income prospects as a B&B.
