It hosts a 3BR, 2-story quaint little farm cottage; with 2BR upstairs, full kitchen, open plan living area and bathroom with additional downstairs accommodation for either a caretaker or guest suite and garage/workshop/equipment homesite. The house can be used as the ‘Main’ house or for the resident caretaker and families’ quarters. There is plenty of room on the property for expansion to develop and build your own dream jungle hideaway. The house is in good condition and an interesting example of one of the last remaining traditional farmhouses in tropical British Colonial style. The architectural style is effectively a ‘Queenslander’, built in the 1960’s after Hurricane Haiti, and was lovingly restored with the natural river stonework and Belizean Hardwood additions. This beautiful gem is a true slice of ‘Valley History’, where the old steam train used to run through this property from the Stann Creek Valley in Middlesex to Dangriga, you can find the remnants of parts of the rusted carriages on the property. The property has 3 bodies of water, with the one creek behind the house, a creek flowing through the middle of the property and approximately 327ft of direct water frontage along the beautiful North Stann Creek River, a favourite for Kayakers and River Rafters alike. This means that the property is incredibly fertile. It was formerly an abandoned grapefruit orchard and when the owner bought the property in 2008, they found a few citrus trees amongst the overgrown grasses that had overtaken the property. They began planting their Garden of Eden and due to the humid rich soils, the Flora just thrived!! It is remarkable to think that the size of the ‘now’ trees on the property were only in fact planted from 2008 onwards. The property hosts a true botanical collection of different hardwoods, fruit trees and botanical oddities such as the rare Cannon ball tree which you can find right after you cross over the bridge on the right-hand side, there are not too many of those in Belize and are more native to South American territories. There is an abundance of incredible flowering tropical trees, and lots of unusual palms. The uncommon palm trees are typically found at the back of the property. The former owner worked alongside ‘Belize’s botanical garden’ and led tours there with groups. He took oddities from the gardens and planted them on his property creating a stunning garden of these unusual varieties.
