It is becoming increasingly difficult to find affordable North American-style homes in popular areas of Costa Rica.

Our town of Atenas has recently had a flood of foreign expats looking to escape the political noise and toxic Gulf oil spill in the United States. Many of them desire to purchase a home under $300K and, indeed, several homes have sold in our small village over the last few months in this price range.

Atenas is a small tranquil coffee town located about halfway between San Jose and the Central Pacific coast, conveniently connected by the new highway, making both attractions a short 30-minute drive.

Over the years, Atenas has become a very popular retirement destination for foreign expats because of its terrific climate (said to have the 'Best Climate in the World') and its peaceful setting.

Here are 5 of the best remaining deals available in Atenas under $300K:

  1. $279,500 - 2,000sf, 2BR/2BTH, North American-style home with an office, pool, fireplace, guesthouse, workshop, and carport located in a private community. The property has a furnished 1BR/1BTH guest house that rents for $600/month, all on a beautifully landscaped 1833M2 (.45 acre) lot.

    Workshop/Storage room with plumbing for bathroom. The main home (photograph above) has a fireplace and a huge covered outdoor terrace with pleasant mountain views.

Wonderful bamboo, wood and stone accents and open-air feel with vaulted wood ceilings with skylights, wicker ceiling fans, and lofts above each bedroom. Terrace is wired for a Jacuzzi hot tub.

    The 1/4-acre property has a gated entry and is privately located with other similar homes. Neighbors are a nice blend of Americans, Canadians, Europeans and locals. Less than 2 miles to town, but with a nature feel.

This home makes for a terrific full or part-time property as it can be easily rented out.


  7. $179,000 - Remodeled home in the photograph above with guest house situated on meticulously landscaped ½ acre lot bordered by a rushing river and waterfalls. This property features a 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom main home and a 2-story loft-style guesthouse. The property in the photograph above has a beautiful gated entry with remote and intercom access.

The master bedroom has a large slate stone bathroom with natural skylights. The large wrap-around porch has beautifully tropical bamboo eaves and is perfect for reading a good book in your hammock while listening to the pleasant sounds of the river.

    Located in a desirable neighborhood with a nice blend of expats and locals, only minutes to Atenas.
