Full Description:
Reduced, the family has decided to reduce the sale by $20,000, the new price is now $215,000
Recently the Historical Value of Indigenous Communities has been a topic of discussion. The thought has allowed me to consider this listing in a new way and I believe the historical value will have certain appeal.
While the trend in the past few years in our area has been to ‘upgrade’ these older Banana Company Homes, incorporating cement when possible, fancy ceramic tile, changing out the wooden louvered windows for aluminum frames, tinted glass and a/c. the homes have lost what this home still retains.
What comes to mind? My first thought was an original style B & B. Back in the day travelers stayed with a family v.s. hotels, they were generally less expensive and ‘homey’. This well-preserved home may provide someone with a newer twist on an old concept, …….and best part of all, it’s only about 100 mts from our small airport with 4 daily flights to San Jose.
The owners had been long time residents of Golfito and they saw things differently years ago, they purchased, maintained and upgraded this home in keeping with its original condition.
At the time I too was doing some remodeling on one of the older homes so I could relate. I understand the value of Historical Homes and appreciated his viewpoint, he was one of the rare persons in our neighborhood who understood and appreciated ‘real value’.
Fast forward 13 years later, life has changed for Don Marcial, and he now needs to sell. I was fortunate enough to have the opportunity to view this Classic, Lovely home and was amazed to see how great the condition has been kept.
My partner had never seen an old-fashioned toilet such as this one, truly a classic.
The pictures will allow you to appreciate the value. Notice the wooden louvers on the windows and shutters. A Gem!
