Set on nearly half an acre of landscaped grounds in Tierras Morenas, this welcoming residence offers sweeping views of Lake Arenal and the rolling green hills that surround it. Offered at a very competitive price, it represents an exceptional opportunity to own a home in one of Costa Rica’s most sought-after regions. Designed with comfort and space in mind, the residence spans approximately 2,200 square feet (204 m²) and has been carefully updated to combine modern finishes with the strength of its original 2000 construction. The 0.49-acre (2,023 m²) lot is large enough to provide privacy and space for gardens, yet manageable for easy upkeep.

The layout includes four large bedrooms and three and a half bathrooms, giving plenty of room for family, visiting friends, or even a home office. Natural light pours through oversized windows, highlighting the airy interiors and framing ever-changing lake and volcano views. Beautiful exotic wood ceilings and doors run throughout the home, adding warmth, elegance, and a true sense of Costa Rican craftsmanship.

At the heart of the home is a very spacious gourmet kitchen, dining and living area designed for both everyday living and entertaining. With inspiring views that stretch across the lake and surrounding greenery, this central gathering space flows seamlessly to the generous covered terrace, ideal for family dinners, hosting friends, or simply relaxing while taking in the breathtaking scenery.

On the upper floor, a recreational room offers expansive, unobstructed views of Lake Arenal. Currently used as a games room, it provides a wonderful setting for entertaining. With its generous size and panoramic outlook, the space could easily be reimagined as a gym, yoga studio, an art studio, a private office, or even transformed into another bedroom with the option of an en-suite.

The property is partially furnished and also features a quaint and cosy one-bedroom, one-bath guesthouse. Given the number of bedrooms and bathrooms overall, this residence naturally lends itself as an income-generating asset, whether through vacation rentals or long-term tenants.

The garden lends itself beautifully to self-sufficiency. The current owner maintained a thriving vegetable and herb garden, benefiting from fresh, homegrown produce just steps from the kitchen. Fruit trees, tropical landscaping, and native plants further enhance the sense of organic living, while a fire pit and aviary add a touch of charm. A solar hot water system supports sustainable living, and the gated entrance provides both privacy and peace of mind.

The community itself is a small friendly mix of locals and international residents, creating an atmosphere that is both vibrant and relaxed. The region enjoys a springlike climate averaging 75°F year-round, making outdoor living effortless and inviting. On warmer days, the home is equipped with wall-mounted units that provide cool, refreshing comfort indoors while maintaining the home’s bright and airy feel.

Despite its private setting, the property is conveniently located. The town of Nuevo Arenal is just minutes away with shops, restaurants, and services. A local market, also nearby, offers fresh produce, artisanal gifts, and handmade goods from the surrounding community; an ideal way to enjoy Costa Rica’s authentic flavors and culture. La Fortuna, otherwise known as the gateway to Arenal National Park, is a picturesque 50-minute drive. Here you’ll discover thermal hot springs, hiking trails, ATV tours, ziplining adventures, and a wide variety of restaurants, coffee shops, and grocery stores. Liberia International Airport and the beaches of Guanacaste are just 90 minutes away, making the home easily accessible for vacationers and an ideal base for exploring both the mountains and the Pacific coast.

This Lake Arenal property is more than just a home, it is a retreat where natural beauty, thoughtful design, and modern comfort converge. With its spacious layout, gourmet kitchen, covered terrace, guesthouse, and manageable garden, it offers the rare opportunity to enjoy both privacy and community in one of Costa Rica’s most enchanting regions.
