H176 New furnished lakeview home, vehicles, on 1/2 acre+ - $215,000 |
| Two years old, this 2BR 2BA home is wonderfully situated for enjoyment of temperate semi-tropical life at Lake Arenal. It has rare direct access to the lake, and is backed by a thickly forested quebrada (ravine) with stream that is home to Costa Rica's fabled wildlife, including howler monkeys and sloths. There is never a moment without some of Costa Rica's fabulous varieties of birds in view. The road that descends from the paved lake highway to the lake edge is publically maintained road but it is practically a private drive since it is so little used. There are no other buildings on the half-mile-long gently beautiful lane sloping gently to the water. The location is perhaps a little over 10 minutes north of the town of Nuevo Arenal, just a minute or two from the restaurant La Rana. The drive to Tilaran takes about 25 minutes. Among the furniture included in the sale are the major kitchen and laundry appliances, living room furniture, beds, and patio furniture. Also included are two vehicles, a 2005 Suzuki Gran Vitara XL7 and a 2007 Bajaj Torito 3-wheeled, enclosed scooter. The sale of additional items such as a wal-mounted plasma TV, a surround-sound system, air compressor, etc., may be negotiated. The property consists of 3 lots with a total size of 2,166 square meters (.535 of an acre). |
