H81 3BR 2BA home on 3/4 acre with view over Tilaran and lowlands - $150,000
This modern 1722-square-foot home, just over a mile from Lake Arenal, is situated so as to take advantage of the wonderful western views from the Tilaran Cordillera. It has a fascinating l view of Tilaran and then down the foothills to the Guanacaste lowlands and the complex of rivers - Coribici, Tenorio, Canas, etc. - that join the Rio Tempisque and empty into the Gulf of Nicoya. The wide veranda is a really pleasant place from which to enjoy the balmy evenings and watch the colorful sunsets reflect off the lowland waterways. It takes about 5 minutes to drive to Tilaran and a little over an hour to reach the international airport at Liberia. There are just three neighboring houses on this lane which curves up from the paved highway, so this is a very peaceful location with hills and forest visible in all directions. However, one of the houses has been built in the past year within 30 yards of this house. The lane becomes impassable to vehicles a short distance beyond this property but for hikers and horseback riders it provides a scenic access to a network of back roads. Also in the past year, this home has changed hands and is now unfurnished.
The home is one story of wood contruction with a house-wide covered veranda with views over Tilaran, the foothills and the lowlands. The home, from its locaton high in the La Tejona hills, has a wonderful view of Tilaran.
