A new owner has turned this charming little home into what can be not only a very pleasant place to enjoy the beauty and wildlife of Costa Rica but also a investment/rental property. On a quiet country lane a 10-minute walk from the village of Tronadora, this greatly upgraded Tico house visited often by toucans and monkeys has fine views of Lake Arenal and the dormant Tenorio Volcano. There's new furniture, nice kitchen appliances plus a washer and dryer, fencing for household pets, a refinished patio, and a rainwater capture system. A paved driveway leads to the home from the country lane that joins the villages of El Roble and Tronadora. In Tronadora are a large grocery and other shops as well as the terminus of the public bus service from Tilaran, Costa Rica's nicest town. The bus ride takes about 15 minutes and costs less than a dollar. By car it is less than 15 minutes from supermarkets, banks, doctors, dentists, stores and offices in the broad streets of hilltop Tilaran.
