H116 Holiday delight: 1BR spacious lakeview home on 2/3+ acre - $150,000 |
| Designed for an idyllic tropical lifestyle, this home high above Rio Piedras at the northwest end of the lake would be a windsurfer's ideal with its great view of lake conditions and its proximity to the wind and kite-surfing centers. But anyone would enjoy this home's concept, its wonderful view, large grounds, open plan, fine woods, and cute custom jacuzzi in the veranda deck. It's a wonderful residence for a couple or a small family or it can be a vacation home with income potential as a rental during the rest of the year. The home has 1240 square feet with an open main area as well as large bedroom with bath and a separate half-bath. A house-wide covered deck has a jacuzzi for lake-viewing while you soak. It's 15 minutes from Nuevo Arenal, 20-25 minutes from Tilaran and near neighbor to other lucky gringos, Rock River Lodge, Cafe Macadamia, and La Macha cafe, where "Mama" puts out gargantuan family-style feasts of typical Tico food. This place fulfills a tropical dream, a laid-back, balmy, simplified existence where you need no heating nor air-conditioning while you enjoy the lake and mountain vistas, the exotic plants, the many varieties of birds, and the occasional visit by howler monkeys. |

On a high promontory a few hundred yards from the lake highway, the house has excellent views of the lake and the surrounding mountains. Here's a view of Arenal Volcano 20 miles away at the other end of Lake Arenal. |
