A home in the Country for sale with all the comforts

Wed, 22 Feb 2012 00:00:05 -0600

Country Home with all the Comforts

I believe this house really has it all. Spectacular views, great access, plenty of land, springs and all the comforts. The main home is 1755 square feet. with 3 bedroom and two baths, the combined living, dining and kitchen area gives the home a very open feel and shows off the fantastic views out over the Cartago valley and the Irazu and Turrialba volcanoes in the distance. The upstairs bathroom off the large master suite has a large Jacuzzi bath for two. Walk in closets, pantry and enclosed garage, hot water throughout the house and a gas fireplace and stove make the home practical and comfortable.

Just outside the home is a large gazebo, ready for entertainment of guests or just to enjoy a nice barbeque. Close by there is the âmini-meâ of the main house, a 377 square foot guest home with kitchen, living area, bath, bedroom and loft ready for those extended guests.

Both homes come completely furnished and ready to move into. The furniture was made by skilled local craftsman using eco-friendly woods. The property used natural plateaus for the building site, instead of moving earth, giving the home a much more solid foundation. A lot of thought was given to drainage so there would be no puddles or problems even during the rainy season. The home is high quality log construction, with incredible fine craftsmanship throughout with many fine details. The home has double roofing with zinc below and barrel tile above, this is very practical, charming and quiet.

The 25 acres (10.22 hectares) of land has hours of walking trails. The owners have given great thought to the nature of the property and have planted hundreds of local trees in the areas that were once pasture. They have also set aside an area for fruit orchards and a garden. In the orchard they have peach, plum, avocado, tree tomatoes, lemons, oranges, grapefruit and a variety of other.

At 5905 feet (1800 meters) the home has spring time weather all year around. With temperatures in the day in the low 70âs and at night in the 60âs. A small gas heater takes the chill off the well insulated home in the evenings and early mornings. No air conditioning is needed.

The home is just a few hundred yards from the interamericana highway that goes from the USA to Panama, but is hidden from the highways sites and sounds. It is just about 15 minutes from Cartago (once the capital of Costa Rica) and itâs shopping and restaurants. Another 10 minutes from Cartago is Terramall, a large shopping mall with restaurants, food court, movie theater, and stores. From there it is just another 10 minutes into San Jose. Hospitals and medical clinics are available in Cartago and San Jose.

Water for the home can come either from the spring on the property or from the municipal water source. Television is available from an antenna for local channels or from satellite. There is already a land line for telephone and the area gets excellent cellular service. Internet can come through dial-up (which is a bit slow) or you can get highspeed service from the countries wireless Kolbi 3G.

Property taxes in the country are very low, this property currently pays just $90.00 a year in taxes.

The property is divided into two partials, one of 3.7 hectares (9.1 acres) and the other of 6.5 hectares (16 acres) that are being sold together. The house is on the smaller partial. The larger partial also has a natural plateau for an additional building spot and has over a 100 meters of road frontage along the interamerican highway. This property could be enjoyed by you or sold off at a later time.

This would be a perfect place for a writer or artist as the views and surroundings are inspiring. This is for a buyer who appreciates the quality of a home built with detail in a quiet rural area that is close to all the amenities of the city.
