As you sit at your desk day after day, do you find yourself daydreaming about your retirement? Do you think about that vacation home you have always wanted and rightfully deserve?

Do you envision a beautiful mountain retreat, perched on the hillside of a tropical paradise? Stunning views, lush landscape, and swimming pool? Can you imagine mornings spent with coffee in hand, watching humming birds, butterflies, and toucans fly past on their morning adventures?

Sunset cocktails in your rocking chair from your front porch as you wait for your hot tub to get warm? If this is what you have been dreaming about, look no further because this beautiful home in Atenas offers all that and so much more.

Located just 5 minutes from downtown Atenas, you are surrounded by forests and mountains with an abundance of birds and nature. This beautiful, new ranch style home has soaring wood beamed ceilings and a light, airy floor plan.

Featuring 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths in the main residence, plus a separate one bedroom, one bath guest house. There is a large kitchen with granite countertops, custom built wood cabinetry, and stainless steel appliances. Large open living areas with the dining room tucked into an open bay window.

The master suite offers patio doors that open to the front terrace with STUNNING mountain views. The en-suite bath with a garden tub, walk in shower, double vanities, and huge walk-in closet completes this private suite.

Enjoy hours relaxing on the huge covered patio, soaking in those beautiful views and the “best climate” in Costa Rica. The outdoor hot tub is tucked into a nook between the master bedroom and front terrace, overlooking the swimming pool, with the same gorgeous views during the day and bright starry skies at night.

This home meets the criteria and checks all the boxes for a retirement as well as a second home for family vacations while generating rental income while you are not using the property. It also makes the perfect investment, creating cash flow, diversifying your investment portfolio.

Many people are not aware that you can use your IRA’s, 401K’s, and other investments to purchase investment real estate outside the United States. Rules and regulations apply, so check with your financial advisor in your home country.

As a vacation rental, this home would generate US$1,500. per week during high season, and US$1,000. per week during low season.

If you are proactive with your investment property, you can obtain 70%-80% occupancy rate in high season, which runs from mid December through April, and 40%-50% occupancy rate for the low or green season. The average high season has 18 weeks with 80% occupancy rate, you will generate a gross rental income of US$21,600.

Likewise, during the low season, taking 50% as our occupancy rate, we get a gross income of US$17,000. for a combined gross annual income of US$38,600. This equates to 8.7% gross return on your investment. After expenses, you will realize 5%-6% ROI, while creating beautiful memories at the same time. Welcome to paradise!
