Belize Three Story Home on Caye Caulker Island https://staging.rainforestrealty.com/listings/belize-three-story-home-on-caye-caulker-island/ Wed, 22 May 2024 15:35:33 +0000 https://staging.rainforestrealty.com/?post_type=property&p=21907 Home on Caye Caulker Island: Wake up to the gentle sound of palms swaying in the breeze and geckos chirping in this custom, incredibly well built stunner! Watch the sun rise over the azure Caribbean in the East and watch it set behind jungle foliage in the West, and you will never want to venture far from your new Island Home! Located on the beautiful atoll of Caye Caulker, 25 miles off the coast of Belize, a short water taxi ride or local flight from the mainland can have you there in no time!

LOCATION and SIZE of Property

Imagine a picturesque, 5-minute boat ride one mile south to Belize’s only Golf Course, located on Caye Chapel. Scuba dive or snorkel off your own private dock, or take a bicycle or golf cart ride a mile into the village to indulge in world-class restaurants and shops.

This very private lot is 90’ of waterfront and 180’ deep, (double lot), with space in the back for building casitas or cabanas for rental, if so desired. Dock foundation is PVC  filled with concrete and is ready for new boards. Landscaping has been upgraded and is ready for your personal touch.

HANDCRAFTED HOME

This house was hand crafted with incredible attention to detail by the owner, who spent years fishing in Alaska and was mindful of harsh and uncertain weather conditions. Sitting 16-1/2 feet above ground, the robust concrete post and beam foundation boasts a 20×20’ (400 square ft) storage unit with garage-style slide-up doors and windows allowing natural light to filter in. The concrete floor is ramped to allow golf-cart and bicycle access. The rain cache cistern is located under the house and holds 15,000 gallons of filtered water. There is a wooden rain cache outdoors (not currently operational), but can double the capacity if utilized.

HOME AMENITIES

The main floor showcases a chef’s kitchen including high-end gas stove/oven, under counter wine fridge, custom Brazilian marble countertops, a copper ceiling over dining area and copper accents throughout, including backsplashes. There is a breakfast bar with custom Tiki head accents at either end. Just off the kitchen, the laundry comes with front-loading digital washer/dryer.

The entire main level has Portuguese tile flooring and bamboo accented ceilings, and includes a full bath with an opaque glass block wall in the shower and a rattan and stained glass ceiling fan. The large open area in the back of the home would be easy to convert to another large bedroom suite or two rooms.

Home on Caye Caulker Island with Beautiful Views

The wrap around veranda is ideal for entertaining and is wide enough (8’) to have tables, chairs and hammocks strategically located to maximize the view.

Upstairs, the master suite is complete with a Jacuzzi tub in the full bath. Custom Belizean hardwood floors were lovingly hand placed to create a stunning pattern. Stained glass window over bathroom area adds to the dramatic appearance. The beautiful ceiling in the master suite is partly bamboo and includes a ceiling fan. An additional upstairs veranda (4’10” wide) is the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee as the sun rises over the serene Caribbean and the stingrays jump high out of the water.

WINDOWS AND DOORS

This home boasts 43 louvered glass windows, allowing ample airflow from the lovely breezes coming off the ocean. There are two sliding glass doors on the main floor and one upstairs in the Master Suite.

The front door is custom hand carved solid mahogany. Battery bank provides 36 hours of power off of one generator charge. House is wired for 120V 60cycle with a 50amp breaker box and could easily be converted to solar. (Inverter is already installed).

This house is fully insurable against hurricanes and has been consistently insured. All interior walls are constructed of ply-cem instead of sheetrock, providing protection from moisture and insects. 

Although the dock is damaged, its foundation is concrete filled PVC pipes that are sunk quite deep into the bottom which makes the dock still secure and usable.  A $1000 USD allowance for the dock repair will be made as all it needs is boards and labour.

At the end of your exciting day, climb the stairs to your stargazing loft to experience the night sky as you have never seen it before, with no city lights to dim the vast array of stars as the milky-way touches the sea.

Don’t let this home on Caye Caulker Island pass you by! This is a once in a lifetime chance to own a piece of paradise.

Belize Island 37 Acres of Rainforest Surrounded by Blue Seas https://staging.rainforestrealty.com/listings/belize-island-37-acres-of-rainforest-surrounded-by-blue-seas/ Thu, 18 Apr 2024 16:48:10 +0000 https://staging.rainforestrealty.com/?post_type=property&p=21750 After many years of private ownership, this island, Frenchman’s Caye is available and looking for its new owner. 

Frenchmans Caye is located off the coast of Punta Gorda, Belize; in the Southern part of Belize.

This 37 acre island features an abundance of trees, stunning white sandy beaches and is surrounded by coral beds and small reef systems.

WORLD CLASS FISHING, DIVING and SNORKELING

There is world class fishing at and near to Frenchman’s Caye.  With flats, reefs, lagoons, estuaries and five river mouths in close proximity, one can pursue permit, tarpon, snook, barracuda, and various snappers among other species.  With a bit of effort one can also go after Bluewater gamefish. In addition to snorkeling, diving and fishing, this is also a fine place to kayak and the views are amazing, especially of the coast of the mainland and the Seven Hills and other mountains which are visible in one of your photos.  This part of the Belize is absolutely gorgeous.

This island is an ideal location for magnificent diving, fishing and snorkeling.

Frenchman’s Caye is one of several islands in this part of southern Belize which were used by the ancient Maya as part of their coastal trade route.  There are remains of Maya coral architecture hidden among the trees on this special place.

This island is part of the establishment of the marine Maya merchant dynasty. The historical account of Frenchmans Caye is that over a millennium ago, Maya merchants set up a dynasty from this location.

FULL OF FRUIT TREES and VEGETATION

Interestingly, this is one of the very few islands that has an area that resembles being in the jungle, complete with:

  • – Buttonwood Trees
  • – Coconut Trees
  • – Avocado Trees
  • – Native Guava
  • – Moho Trees
  • – Mango trees
  • – Citrus (Local Lime Trees)
  • – Banana Trees
  • – Wild Sugar Cane
  • – Black, White and Red mangrove

COASTAL ZONE MANAGEMENT PLAN

Frenchman’s Caye is mentioned in the Coastal Zone Management Plan as a site suited to low-scale ecological tourism or residential use.  The Caye’s proximity to Punta Gorda to the southwest provides peace and solitude while providing access to goods, services and transportation by air, land and sea.

The Caye is located in the Port Honduras Marine Reserve (PHMR) which is jointly managed by TIDE (a local NGO with funding from The Nature Conservancy and other international donors/agencies) and the Belize Fisheries Department in an effort to maintain a healthy, sustainable marine ecosystem.  PHMR is a critical foraging and calving site for the endangered West Indian manatee which are seen regularly in these waters.  There are also sea turtle nesting areas, particularly hawksbill turtles.  There are also plenty of birds in this area including a healthy population of magnificent Frigatebirds.

The views from the Caye are outstanding in all directions.  The natural beauty of the area is spectacular.  Within a short distance are a variety of ecotypes including stands of dwarf mangrove, gallery forests, rivers and lagoons as well as mangrove isles in abundance.  The Caye itself is a rare example of an island with highly diverse vegetation. 

If your vision has you owning your own island, then this rich in history island is your one of a kind opportunity for sure!
