Finca La Familia is a 25-hectare plot of raw land, forest and pasture near Tilarán with sweeping views of Lake Arenal.

Suitable for building one or more homes, and/or for grazing and farming, the property is for sale as a whole or in smaller lots of 3 hectares or 10 hectares.

Currently used for dairy cattle, the land contains at least two flat places suitable for home sites with magnificent views of the lake. Two creeks run through the property, and water is provided by on-site wells.

Electricity is available from the ICE grid. ICE, the national electricity company, owns a neighboring reserve where home-building is prohibited, so you will never have close neighbors.

The property is right on the newly paved lakeside highway between Tilarán and Nuevo Arenal. Three entrances provide vehicular access on somewhat rough dirt tracks.

The regional hub of Tilarán, with grocery stores, banks and gas stations, is 15 minutes away. Nuevo Arenal is about 40 minutes away, and the popular tourism destinations of La Fortuna and Monteverde are about an hour and a half away. The property has views of three volcanoes: Arenal, Tenorio and Miravalles.

Animals that pass through the property include howler monkeys, deer, coati, raccoons, armadillos and occasionally pumas. Toucans and curassows are among the birds commonly spotted here.

In addition to cleared pasture, the property has plenty of raw forest, with laurel, guanacaste, oak and cedar trees. The soil is dark and fertile, ideal for growing vegetables, corn, plantains, tomatoes and other crops.

There’s a public boat ramp nearby, offering access to Lake Arenal’s excellent rainbow bass fishing, windsurfing and waterskiing.

The property is offered at 7,000 colones ($11.75) per square meter, or $117,500 per hectare. So the 3-hectare lot would be $352,500, the 10-hectare lot $1,175,000, and the entire 25-hectare property just under $3 million.
