Unique 13.635 acre parcel at the junction of the Coastal Plains Highway and Mullins River Road. The strategic location of this parcel, which sits between Nelly Creek to the south and the Mullins River Village access road to the north serves as a gateway to the picturesque village of Mullins River that is known for its natural beauty and historical significance. The quaint quiet coastal village, which is less than 5 minutes’ drive form this property, is comprised of less than 200 full-time residents.
The key natural attractions surrounding this property include the river itself, which provides endless opportunities for kayaking, fishing, and enjoying the serene environment. Its navigable waters make it a natural highway for exploration as well as those looking to experience the tranquility and all that this coastal area has to offer. Another key feature is the village's location at the mouth of the river which allows for easy access to the Caribbean Sea. Here visitors can engage in activities such as swimming, snorkeling, sailing, and beachcombing.
The surrounding area is also ideal for ecotourism, with opportunities for bird watching and exploring local flora and fauna. Another key attraction is the village’s historical significance: Mullins River has a rich history tied to early missionary activities in Belize. Visitors can explore remnants of this history, including the site of the first Catholic chapel established in modern Belize. A notable feature is the alignment of pine trees forming a large Christian cross, which has historical and cultural significance.
The property consists of a mixture of narrow and broad leaf vegetation with predominantly pine and cohune palm ridge. It boasts an elevation of over 70 feet above sea level and is actually at the foothills of the mountain range to the west thus offering breathtaking mountain views.
