Situated within the serene lakeside community of El Aguacate on Lake Arenal in Guanacaste, this stunning one-level, three-bedroom, two-bathroom home, set on just over two acres, offers an ideal balance of privacy, convenience, and natural beauty. Thoughtfully positioned on a slightly elevated setting, the property benefits from enhanced views of Lake Arenal and its majestic volcano, the surrounding mountains, gentle breezes, and a heightened sense of tranquility, creating a strong connection to the surrounding landscape.

The property is easily accessible from a main road via a secured electric gate, followed by a driveway that gently meanders through mature, lush gardens and leads directly to the main home, which is set back and thoughtfully tucked into the landscape. A spacious courtyard at the front of the property creates a welcoming sense of arrival and provides ample space for vehicle parking, while the home’s slightly recessed position enhances the overall feeling of privacy and seclusion.

The property enjoys an exceptional level of privacy, surrounded by mature trees, fruit trees, and vibrant tropical flora that attract a wide variety of birdlife. The grounds feature an abundance of fruit trees, including lime, lemon, orange, banana, mango, and avocado, as well as a selection of herbs and spices, creating a lush, productive landscape that enhances both privacy and daily living.

The home showcases an open-concept layout with thoughtful décor throughout and is tastefully furnished and offered for sale turnkey. There are several striking features of this home, most notably the 15-foot-high wood ceilings, which feature a living room skylight and define the main living and dining areas as the heart of the home. In addition, all doors are crafted from exotic wood and carved with designs specific to Costa Rican, adding warmth, character, and authentic local artistry. This central living space offers a strong sense of openness, natural light, and visual appeal, and flows seamlessly to covered terraces at both the front and rear, offering lake and volcano views to the front and a more secluded, tropical-inspired setting to the rear.

The main living area enjoys expansive views of the gardens and beyond to the rolling hills of Lake Arenal, with stunning sunrise and sunset vistas that create a true wow factor. The covered terrace is seamlessly accessed from the living area, extending the home’s indoor–outdoor flow. Very few homes offer views of this caliber, encompassing the Lake Arenal, surrounding mountains, and the Arenal Volcano, and extending in the distance toward Monteverde, an element that truly sets this home apart.

From the dining room, one can access the mature gardens and the outdoor rancho. Nearby is a detached bodega that currently serves as a storage facility. With its adjoining patio, this structure offers a compelling opportunity to be reimagined as a casita, art studio, or home office, opening the door to creative expansion. These elements collectively present a canvas for future vision and personalization.

The generously sized kitchen, conveniently located adjacent to the dining room, is finished with exotic wood cabinetry, quartz countertops, and generous workspace. It features a breakfast bar, quality appliances including a refrigerator, gas stove, and dishwasher, multiple large pantries, and large picture windows overlooking the gardens and nearby rancho, which functions as an outdoor kitchen and entertaining area and has the convenience of a bathroom.

For added privacy and tranquility, all three bedrooms are located separately from the main living area. The principal suite includes a king-size bed, large closets, and a well-appointed private en-suite bathroom with double vanities and a walk-in shower. Picture windows fill the space with natural light, creating a bright and comfortable retreat.

The two well-appointed guest bedrooms, one overlooking the front terrace and gardens and the other the rear terrace, feature built-in closets and share a spacious, well-designed bathroom with a walk-in shower, ideal for visiting family and guests. For added comfort, all bedrooms are equipped with ceiling fans.

With just over two acres, the property offers ample space for further development, including additional guest houses or the creation of an in-ground pool with an expansive rear terrace. With available land to support expansion, the possibilities for enhancing and personalizing the property are considerable.

Additional features of the property include a spacious laundry room equipped with a washer and dryer, ample cabinetry, storage, and a sink, as well as a convenient carport located at the end of the driveway.

The property is conveniently located just under an hour and a half from Liberia International Airport and approximately a 20-minute drive to the neighbouring towns of Tronadora and Tilarán, where you will find grocery stores, pharmacies, medical services, and a range of professional services. La Fortuna, widely regarded as the gateway to Arenal Volcano National Park and one of Costa Rica’s most visited destinations, is also easily accessible. The region is well known for its thermal hot springs, ATV and horseback riding tours, hiking trails, butterfly conservatories, and a wide range of outdoor adventures. La Fortuna also offers world-class dining experiences and a diverse selection of tours that showcase the area’s natural beauty.

With so much to offer, this property represents an exceptional investment in one of Costa Rica’s most desirable locations. Whether imagined as a family sanctuary, a vacation home, or a thoughtfully developed income-generating property, it offers versatility and long-term potential that extend well beyond a traditional residence.
