400 Acres with 3,000ft on the Sibun River north of Runaway Creek Nature Reserve
This property boasts 400 Acres of raw, natural land with over half a mile of riverfront less than 5 mins off the Western (George Price) Highway and just two miles from the brand new Coastal Highway currently being upgraded. It offers approximate 3,300 ft along the Sibun River and has two natural ponds that can be widened/depend to aid in irrigation. It has 1 miles of road frontage along the old northern highway and stretches roughly the same distance from front (North) to back (South) reaching all the way South to where Colonel English Creek meets the Sibun River.
The surrounding area is a rich, haven for biodiversity with the Belize Tropical Education Center just a half mile down the same road leading to the property and the Belize Zoo only 5 mins away. Gibnuts and Agoutis roam freely around the area, as well as Tamanduas and a wide array of birds and other wildlife. It sits squarely within Belize's vital Maya Forest Corridor, a relatively tiny sliver of land that is quite literally the last forested connection between the magnificent Maya Mountains of Southern Belize and the rest of the four million hectare tri-national Selva Maya Tropical Forest of Belize, Mexico and Guatemala.
The land is a mix of tropical broadleaf forest to the south and subtropical coniferous forest to the North which makes it suitable both as farmland for agriculture or ranchland for livestock. Two large farms, Runaway Creek and Tiger Sandy Bay are both located along the same stretch of the Sibun River with Runaway Creek directly across the river from the property. It boast a central location near the junction of two major highways and has easy access to electricity and a year-round water source making it a highly valuable property for any investor.
