Enchanting Garden & Jungle Property, Walking Distance to Town, Arenal APMLS0048

Step into an enchanting blend of mature garden and jungle on this peaceful, 3,200m2 property, just a short walk from town. Surrounded by majestic trees and lush greenery, this home offers privacy, tranquility, and the feeling of living in your own private rainforest while still being close to shops, restaurants, and services.

The modest but very livable Costa Rican cement prefab house features:
2 comfortable bedrooms
1 full bathroom
Open concept kitchen, dining, and living area
A lovely, covered porch overlooking the mature trees and garden

With almost a full acre of land, there is plenty of room to expand, add a second home, or create a large sunny garden area. The property already includes a bodega (shed) built on a cement slab. This space can easily be upgraded into:

An additional living area or guest suite
A workshop or studio
Or simply a peaceful spot to relax among the trees

The home sits on a very quiet public road, with a manual gate and a carport with its own sliding door. Because the property is on a public road and has good size and frontage, there is potential to subdivide into two separate legal lots in the future (subject to local regulations and approvals).

This is a rare opportunity to own an affordable, close to town property with:
A simple but functional home you can live in immediately
Space and potential to renovate, expand, or build a new house next door
A large, mature, jungle-like garden setting

For buyers looking for a Costa Rican dream property on a realistic budget, this listing offers something hard to find under $140k, walking distance to town, and over three quarters of an acre of land with an existing home.

Perfect for:
A primary residence with room to grow
A family compound
A rental plus owner’s home
Or a project with great potential
