Escape to your own private hilltop retreat in Belize. This unique off-grid property near San Ignacio spans 1.5 acres and blends sustainable living with natural beauty, privacy, and comfort. Featuring two handcrafted stone buildings inspired by Mayan design, the property offers stunning countryside views, mature gardens and a peaceful jungle setting.
Escape to Self-Sufficient Living
Picture your mornings beginning with coffee on a breezy veranda overlooking private tropical gardens, stepping out to pick fresh fruit for breakfast, and cooling off in the Mopan River by the afternoon.
Set in the peaceful Bullet Tree Falls community just 10 minutes from San Ignacio, this unique property offers a slower, more sustainable pace of life. You get the best of both worlds: a quiet riverside haven with a welcoming expat community, paired with effortless access to local markets, restaurants, and everyday conveniences.
Property Highlights
- The Lifestyle: Public access to the crystal-clear Mopan River is an easy walk away for swimming. Enjoy daily visits from howler monkeys and a vibrant array of local birdlife right in your yard.
- Food & Agriculture: A thriving orchard already features mature avocado, coconut, fig, lemon, lime, and orange trees, plus grape vines and raspberry bushes. There is plenty of space to expand your own organic farming.
- Robust Infrastructure: Fully equipped for independence with solar power, village water, a 12,000-gallon pond, and roughly 3,000 gallons of rainwater storage.
- Flexible Land Package: The main structures sit on a 1-acre parcel, complemented by an adjoining 0.5-acre lot on a separate title. An additional 0.5-acre parcel is also available for $35,000 USD, allowing you to expand the estate to a full 2 acres.
