The property, two miles from the center of San Ignacio and on the same side of the river as du Plooy’s and Chaa Creek, across from Cristo Rey village, consists of 5.3 acres on the Macal river with 800 ft of river frontage. It has a large comfortable house with downstairs utility room, storage room, guest cloakroom/toilet, gas fired water boiler and airing cupboard and cool hallway. Also on this level, across from the front door, is a self-contained unit with two beds, an en suite bathroom and a cooking area. Internal stairs lead from the hallway to a screened kitchen and dining area and the rest of the living space. This is comprised of two double bedrooms 17’x 15’, with en suite shower rooms, and a large living room with cathedral ceiling 34’ x 15’. The living room has a fireplace and built in log storage and comfortable sitting area at one end and an office area with spacious desks and Aaron type chairs at the other.
The whole has a wraparound verandah, 12’ wide overlooking the river on one side, and 8’ wide overlooking the swimming pool and enclosed garden on the other. Both verandas have small tables for eating or playing cards and comfortable furniture.
Outside there is a covered parking area for 2 vehicles, a workshop which houses the pool pump and garden machinery, mower etc. Separately, behind a high hibiscus hedge are the quarters for the caretaker/manager and his family, 3 bedrooms, kitchen and bath-house.
The property is well provided with fruit trees, Mango, Sour Sop, Loquat, Mulberry, Lime, Lemon, Mangosteen (still an infant), Malay Apple, Akee akee, Lychee, Surinam cherry, Guava, Avocado, Star fruit, Seville orange and Marmee as well as, for keen cooks, kaffir lime and allspice. The aromatics are ylang-ylang, gardenia, jasmine and frangipani.
Roughly three miles of tracks have been cut to wind through the jungle with benches at viewing points and steps edged with cement for durability. There is a bore hole which provides unlimited water and as well we have storage for 7000 gals of rainwater. Electricity is provided by a mixture of solar power and an Isuzu 7 hp (I think but should check) diesel generator. LPG for hot water, cooking and refrigeration is contained in 4 x 500 litre tanks.
