Description

This property would definitely suit someone with creative/artistic leanings, particularly if you don't want the hassle of building from scratch - maybe you just want to pause whilst you settle into your new surroundings and new life.

The views are stunning and inspiring. Flocks of toucans and parrots fly around the house every day. We also have woodpeckers, melodic black birds, etc. roosting and making our garden their home along with the butterflies, dragonflies and the rest.
The area is quiet and many shy wild animals live just beyond the fence line, e.g. tapirs, ant-eaters, peccaries, etc. We have tried our best not to scare away the animals who have created a home here before us.

The House is on 2.6 acres of land with breathtaking views across the village, into the Belize River Valley and out to Spanish Lookout and beyond.

The house is on two levels: the upper house has a bedroom, bathroom, store-room kitchen and living area plus a huge semi-wrap-around veranda (total area of outdoor space of the veranda upstairs is approx. 736 SQ FT!) The upper house is made from tropical hardwood and is insulated - in fact the roof space is doubly insulated which keeps the house even cooler. Even the veranda has insulation and also a wooden ceiling to keep the area especially cool.

The lower part of the house is made of concrete and consists of:

Shower-room
Utility room (plumbed for washing machine, has sink and cupboards for extra storage)
Office
Workshop (with sink and cupboards and double doors for easy access)
Electricity room/storage
Pump room (storage and generator: please note: the house has been wired to enable it to be powered by generator in the event of a power cut - which is usually infrequent and for a very brief period)
