It has been meticulously maintained by the owners as is evident throughout the home, the perfectly groomed grounds and the large workshop garage.

The Master bedroom entry also features rich wood arched doors and an expansive bedroom with private bath and custom clothes closet with auto-drain dehumidifier. The bedroom features double arched doors leading out to a very private balcony overlooking the beautiful pool, pool house and Lake Arenal views.

The Master bath has been tastefully designed with neutral tile flooring, granite vanity countertops and a large walk-in shower with custom tile-work. The alcove and half bath on this level just opposite the Master is ideal for a small workspace and offers views of the open Great Room below as well as the upper portion of the property.

The hallway continues onto the secondary bedrooms and bath. The bedrooms share a large bath complete with custom walk-in shower, granite topped vanity and a medicine cabinet. Both of the secondary bedrooms are oversized and can easily accommodate King-sized or several smaller beds, should you desire. Each of the bedrooms also have rich, arched doors as seen throughout the home, and lead to private exterior balconies overlooking Lake Arenal, the beautiful pool and lush landscaping. Access to the pool can be made from the main set of steps leading from the Great Room exterior covered patio. The large pool-house at the bottom of the stairs contains an outdoor kitchen complete with double stainless sink, refrigerator and the most outstanding custom fireplace/pizza oven combination you will find. There are even two sturdy hammock hooks under the roof for lounging in the shade. The natural water pool has two Infinity edges – one of which cascades into a natural reed planter. The pool’s equipment and supplies are housed out of sight in a custom-built equipment room just beyond the pool. The overall design and beauty of the pool and pool-house will make it difficult to imagine being anywhere else. The main home enjoys lush landscaping for privacy as well as a strongly fortified retaining wall just at the top of the property. The home is incredible on its’ own, but there is an additional 1,404 square foot, 6-bay garage that will make any car enthusiast, carpenter, welder or boatsman heart go pitter-patter! This incredible space will house up to 4 cars, perhaps two boats, numerous ATV’s or any other hobby you can imagine.

The solid concrete building has its own septic system and contains a large storage/safe room at the rear of the garage, complete with toilet, shower, sink, welding plugs, LED lighting, workbenches and ample shelving. This gorgeous home was built to Canadian standards which insures the entire main home and garage have been built for longevity. Both have state-of-the-art drainage systems to prevent erosion from the foundations with clean-outs at every junction. The roof lines have 1 meter overhangs, piped roof drainage, foam injected metal roof voids and vented eaves to keep the home well ventilated for mold avoidance. There are a total of 3 ‘on-demand’ hot water systems and all lighting is LED to keep electric costs to a minimum.
