House and property for sale in Nosara, Costa Rica
Looking for a surf cabin, getaway, retirement spot or tear-down? I own a small cabin of about 800 square feet on almost 2 acres of green, lightly forested land in Nosara, Costa Rica.
The house is not spectacular, but is habitable with electricity, running water, and functioning septic tank. The property is a kilometer from beautiful Playa Pelada (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:PlayaPelada1.jpg) and about 5 minutes from Nosara Airport.
Eco-minded individuals will appreciate that the beaches in this area will never be developed, due to the fact that they are located within Ostional Wildlife Refuge, which was established to protect the nesting sites of the Olive Ridley and Leatherback sea turtles.
Nosara has a market, pharmacy, post office, churches, school, police station, David S. Kitson public library, banking facilities and a Red Cross clinic, so most of your daily needs are within 5 kilometers distance.
I took over ownership of the property about a year ago as a foreclosure, and need to recoup the money I invested into it. I am looking to sell it at my cost, $185,000.
Need a surf cabin? Sweep it out, it's ready to go. Clean it up a little and you'll have a nice getaway or retirement place. Or tear it down and build the house you've dreamed of owning in Costa Rica!
