Price on applicationTitled & permitted · private sale, no agent
Set among rolling pastures and graceful trees, with toucans overhead and a tranquil creek below the hill, this land holds an uninterrupted view across Lake Arenal to the volcano itself — twenty-five kilometres of open horizon that no neighbour can ever take away.
The estate meets Route 142 with generous, direct access — the tarmac road that carries you the few minutes into Tilarán, where the shops, restaurants, banks and schools are. From the boundary, a private road climbs through the parcel to the crown of the hill.
The land rises gently from an open, level lower section of roughly 10,000 m² toward the southwest, gaining the elevation that gives every plateau its view.
Play the drone flyover
Beyond the level lower ground, two further plateaus have been cut and prepared near the top of the property — each one a ready canvas for the home you have imagined, each one facing the water.
A small creek lined with tropical plants and mature trees forms the western boundary, drawing toucans, monkeys and birdsong through the property daily. This is working, living Costa Rican countryside — not a cleared lot.

Volcán Arenal · 25 km
Photographs flatten it. From the plateau, the perfect cone of Volcán Arenal stands clear across the water — the same volcano that gives the lake its name, twenty-five kilometres away and entirely yours to wake to. Everything else on this page is detail. This is the estate.
On the northwest shore of Lake Arenal, minutes from Tilarán and near Arenal National Park, this superb parcel offers what almost no remaining land on the lake can: a commanding, protected view over the water to the volcano that shares its name.
The land rises gently from its lower section — roughly 10,000 m² of open, level ground — toward the southwest, where a newly constructed private road climbs to the crown of the property. There, two further plateaus have been graded and prepared, each a ready foundation for the home you have imagined.
Everything the practical eye asks for is already in place. Electricity is connected. Water is supplied by the estate's own well, with laboratory analyses confirming excellent quality. Title is held one hundred percent by the owner, all documents are in order, and a building permit has been issued without restriction. You are not buying a possibility — you are buying permission.
The lakeshore lies roughly 200 metres away, an easy morning's walk. The region around Lake Arenal is under active development for tourism and residence, and land of this character — titled, serviced, and view-facing — does not return to the market often.
