H149 " Rustic elegance": volcano-view home on 1.24 acres - $279,000
The property has extraordinary views of the volcano and lake.
This lovingly designed and built home high above the lake near the village of Aguacate incorporates two and a loft into a compact structure on a 1.24-acre lot. Though located on a fairly steep hillside - thus the unimpeded views - the house has a very large, level building pad on which there is lots of room for a swimming pool and other structures. The finest hardwoods have been chosen for the extensive woodwork in the home, including the beautiful cathedral ceiling.
