From the moment you drive up to the sprawling, peaceful community of Sabalito, you can’t help but feel awed by the green rolling hillsides dotted with horses and cattle, views of Lake Arenal, windmills and some of the most beautiful sunsets to be found. Imagine yourself there in this spacious, comfortable home! The 2 bedroom, 2 bath home includes large outdoor living spaces plus a den/office, and a separate laundry room with storage at the rear of the property!
The entrance to the property is flanked by a decorative iron privacy/security gate and leads to the single car parking area. There is a small closet at the tip of the carport to use for smaller outdoor items like gardening tools, as well as an outdoor sink to rinse off dirty boots or hands after gardening. To the left of the carport is a nice gardening or landscaping area just waiting for your special design ideas. There is a large covered front patio in the front, next to the carport just made for relaxing and perhaps outdoor entertaining. Beyond the parking area, you will find yet another large covered outdoor space ideal for entertaining and relaxing. Adjacent to the concrete patio is a rocked area which would be the perfect spot for a jacuzzi or a kid’s playground. The area is covered and enclosed for protection from wind or rain so it can be enjoyed no matter what kind of weather there may be. A side entrance door in this space leads to the main part of the home. Upon entering you are welcomed by a large open living room and kitchen. Each of these rooms have ample larger windows from which to take in the views and natural lighting. A cozy brick faux fireplace between the two rooms adds to its charm and ties the rooms together. The kitchen is supplied with an abundance of wood cabinets and pantry and has a granite topped breakfast bar for 3. The granite countertop flows into the kitchen and provides ample counter-high workspace. Beyond the kitchen you will find a lovely dining set for 4 or more and the home’s den/office. The room can be utilized for whatever you may need and could even accommodate a twin bed with room to spare. The shade from the front covered patio keeps this room cool, and windows provide the desirable amount of natural lighting and airflow.
The secondary bedroom is across from the kitchen area and is roomy and bright as well. Both the secondary bedroom and the den/office share a full sized bath with walk-in shower and single sink. The updated bath features modern tile and glass block.
The principal or master bedroom is very large with built-in storage shelves, an amoire and clothes closet with shelving as well. The ensuite bath is also good-sized and has a walk-in shower and single sink. The bedroom is adorned with large windows to the rear to provide great airflow, as do smaller windows in the clothes closet and bath. From the largest window you have magnificent open views of the Sabalito rolling green hills and the rear yard.
The backyard opens up to fantastic views and has room to plant a small garden or landscape as you wish. The small building in the yard contains a full sized washer and dryer and is large enough to also double as a storage are for larger tools or miscellaneous items.
This home may appear small from your first glance but has so many extra spaces from which to enjoy outdoor living and is truly a surprising home. With its larger living room, kitchen and master bedroom you will always have plenty of room. The tranquility and beauty that Sabalito offers adds to its charm. For those who love their privacy but also want conveniences this is the prime location and home. Sabalito is about midway between the larger towns of Nuevo Arenal, Tronadora and Tilaran. Each of those towns are an approximate 15-20 minute drive from the home; the lovely community of Tierra Morenas is only 5 minutes from the home. The larger towns offer a variety of grocers, restaurants and gas stations. Tilaran is the go-to larger town for additional medical services and a larger variety of shopping. Nuevo Arenal is frequented by those wanting live entertainment and numerous organic markets and pharmacies among others. Sabalito is sought after for its natural beauty, convenient proximity to but with less population than found in Tilaran, Tronadora and Nuevo Arenal. The largest of the cities is Liberia, which is a little over an hour’s drive from Sabalito, and is where you will find the Liberia Intl. airport, vast major shopping areas and is the main access for our areas beautiful beaches.
