Description

A main house on the water. A studio cabana for guests or rental income. Protected dock access. Producing grounds. Everything you need to live here or let it work for you while you live elsewhere. The river runs past. The infrastructure is finished. This is move-in ready built by a renowned custom builder from the United States.


What You Own


One primary residence (800 sq ft) and one studio cabana (300 sq ft), each built to survive the Belizean climate, each independently functional.


The Main House sits 7 feet elevated on a concrete foundation—2 bedrooms, 1 bath, open-concept living. Front and rear screened verandas on both sides. This is where you actually live.


Hardwood construction throughout. Real framing, real durability. Mahogany hardwood flooring in the main living areas. Mixed hardwood ceiling details. Mahogany kitchen cabinets and countertops. Double-paned windows —protection built in, not added as an afterthought. Three mini-split AC units keep each room at its own temperature.


The bathroom is newly remodeled: custom tile, shower bench, glass enclosure, mahogany vanity. Every detail finished properly.


Beneath the house: 700 square feet of sheltered workspace. Parking for vehicles. A built-in work table with sink. This is practical space, not wasted foundation.


The storage room (400 sq ft) holds your water systems—300-gallon domestic tank, pressure tank with pump, electric hot water heater, and shelving throughout.


The Studio Cabana is 5 feet elevated, 300 square feet of independent living. Recently remodeled with a European wet room bathroom. Hardwood construction, zinc panel exterior cladding, covered and screened veranda. It functions as a guest cottage, rental unit, or separate family space.


Both structures use the same climate-resistant materials. Both are finished. Neither is a project waiting to happen.


The River Access


Your dock is a statement for every boat that passes. Not a casual installation. This won't shift when the river swells. The property sits on high ground—the water respects these banks.


Your dock extends over 100 feet across the water, 8 feet wide, built on pressure-treated telephone poles. The structure is permanent.


Your trellis covers the dock—nearly 100 feet long, 7 feet tall, with a 7-foot overhang. Steel columns, pressure-treated wood, shade screening. Lights and outlets are built in. This is where you sit. This is where people gather. It's the only place you belong at the end of the day. This property is a statement, functionally perfect, stunningly beautiful and could be yours.



The Grounds


The soil here was intentionally built. Over 125 semi-trucks of quality earth were imported to support what grows on this property. The result speaks for itself.


What Produces: 4 types of mangoes, 4 types of guavas, cashew, 3 types of avocados, tamarind, 16 coconut palms, 50 pineapple plants, star fruit, citrus varieties (Naval, Mandarin, Blood Orange, Grapefruit, Key Lime, Lemon), 4 types of plums, blackberries, mulberries, raspberries, passion fruit, soursop, breadfruit, Moringa, Mamme apple, wax apple, figs, açaí, cassava, vanilla.


What Blooms: Hundreds of Birds of Paradise, Plumerias, Hibiscus, Lilies, Iris, Bougainvillea, Crepe Myrtles.


The Palms: Fox palms, Travelers palms, Christmas palms throughout the property.


The landscaping is maintained. Pathways are defined. Flower beds are established. This isn't raw land—it's a working garden.


The Water and Growing Systems


Rainwater Collection: Six 2,500-liter cisterns and one 25,000-liter cistern capture what falls from the sky. The system feeds your trees, your fountain, and your needs.


Water Fountain: A 13-by-10-foot, 13-foot-tall three-tier fountain holds 1,800 gallons. Two pumps, filter, and UV sterilizer. The local wildlife drinks here.


Work Shed: 200 square feet for landscaping equipment and supplies.


Fencing: 7-foot pressure-treated decorative fence around the perimeter. Electric gate opener. Video surveillance and exterior lighting throughout. Gravel driveway with built-in drywell for drainage during heavy rain.


How This Works


Live Here Full-Time The main house is built for permanent occupancy. Three separate AC zones. Protected water systems. Storage for everything you need. The studio serves as guest space or rental income. The river is your constant backdrop.


Retreat and Rent Occupy the main house when you're there. The studio generates revenue when you're not. The established grounds require maintenance, but they produce. The river access draws people. Income offsets your holding costs.


Family Expansion Use the main house for yourselves. The studio for aging parents, adult children, or rotating family visits. The grounds support everyone. The river is shared.


The Infrastructure


Full electrical service throughout both structures. High-speed connectivity. Modern appliances in every kitchen. Mini-split AC units in the main house (one per room). Pressure water system with storage and treatment. Hot water on demand. Hurricane shutters for storm protection.


The property is built to function, and to impress.


Why This Works


You're not buying potential. You're buying a finished property with river access, productive land, and a built structure that's already doing what you need it to do. The dock won't shift. The soil will produce year after year. The main house is livable today.


The river doesn't recede. The access is protected. The infrastructure works now.
