This unique custom home is located in the lovely village of Tronadora in a very quiet neighborhood near many part-time international residents in the nice local community. The large house has 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, open concept kitchen-dining-living room, and laundry room/bodega. French doors in both living room and master bedroom create an indoor/outdoor living space, including a covered swimming pool with large deck that as a 180° view of Lake Arenal. A one-car garage with automatic door was recently added to the property.The grounds are well maintained and many fruit trees and exotic plants are planted throughout. The house was designed to minimize the view of neighbors and maximize privacy. Costa Rica’s nicest town, Tilaran, with supermarkets, banks, pharmacies, doctors, restaurants, and many other stores is just 15 minutes away. The international airport at Liberia is only about an hour distant.
In front of the home, a pasture descends steeply to a cove formed by one of Tronadora’s two farming peninsulas beyond which lies a 180-degree view of the 20-mile long lake. Across the lake can be seen the village of Aguacate and the town of Nuevo Arenal. A wall of glass panels protects the covered pool and large patio on breezy days. Lake Arenal has a lovely springlike climate year round and homes need neither air conditioning nor heating. The house of 2863 square feet is on a lot of .55 acre.
The unique home is composed of two buildings joined by the wide covered veranda. There are three on-demand water heaters and power flush toilets. The home has European style windows and french doors (tilt-turn system, all with built-in insect screens) throughout as well as ceramic tiles throughout the house.
The kitchen, with fine custom hardwood cabinetry and modern appliances, is part of an open plan with a high ceilings and much glass for the lake views to the east and mountain views to the west. The kitchen contains a new Whirlpool dishwasher, new ceramic cook top (electric), stainless steel double-door refrigerator and all granite counter tops.
