Secluded yet only 200 yards from San Luis village center

The new owner of a large home on the western edge of the village of San Luis has completed a complete rebuild of that home from the ground up, expanding it to 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms in 1,785 square feet with weather and insect-proof construction of steel, concrete, and tile along with custom hardwood (guanacaste) cabinetry. The home has high ceilings, 5 large skylights, recessed lighting, 4 ceiling fans, and a small pool. In addition, there is a fireplace and screens on the windows. Designed to thwart deleterious effects of tropical insects and moisture, it is a property that maximizes enjoyment of the temperate climate, exotic scenery, and wealth of indigenous flora and productive fruit trees. With these attributes, $175,000 is a modest price. In addition, owner financing is available and the owner is willing to take gold and silver as partial or full payment.

The home has an ultra-convenient location. It is just a couple of hundred yards from the restaurants and mini-marts of San Luis and justover a mile from Puerto San Luis Yacht Club and Marina (open to the public with wake boarding, boating, water skiing, fishing, swimming, as well as rental moorage and dry storage and launch ramp). Tilaran, the regional capitol with super markets, banks, clinics, pharmacies, hardware stores and much more, is about 10 minutes by car. The public bus stop for the Tilaran bus is less than 200 yards from the home.
