Granada, Nicaragua is a 500 year old Spanish colonial city adjacent to a large lake with more than 400 volcanic islands. I know a Canadian who moved to Granada several years ago, renovated a home and extended it for a ridiculously low cost. In one direction it looks out on a dark green cloud forest covering an extinct volcano and in the other direction the view is of the Cathedral. He opened a restaurant that is frequented by Nicaraguans, expat Americans and Canadians. Life is tranquil in Granada. There are bargains still to be found in buying a renovated colonial home according to International Living (internationalliving.com)
A very spacious one-bed, one-bath home has beautiful tile floors, high ceilings, and an internal courtyard garden. It's just three blocks from the central park. Furniture and appliances are included in the list price of $170,000.
A three-bed, four-bath home with 250 square meters of living space is on a corner plot. The 150-year-old house has a swimming pool and a garage. The asking price is $229,000. Annual property taxes on this house are less than $300.
