ACTIVE  Gentleman’s Farm

Every farmer wishes for abundant water, good soil, and sunshine. Just North of Rancho Dolores you will find all three, on the Spanish Creek River. 5243 acres of generous land with 5 miles of River frontage. Several springs, small waterfalls, and arable pastures make this estate heaven. Ideal for large-scale agricultural development or as a resort, or a combination of both. There is some developed infrastructure in place – wells, roads, paddocks, a rustic 2-bedroom house, and dock. The land features lots of wildlife, some old mahogany forests that have been cut and naturally reseeded, and other hardwoods. The gentle sloping land is easy to maintain and work. Currently, 1000 acres have been cleared for cattle farming. Good ground for citrus, cocoa, soursop, papaya, etc. There is good limestone on one part of the estate that could lend itself to quarrying, although it would be a pity to scar this lovely landscape. Additionally, the property is subdivided into 96 titled parcels, ranging from as little as 9 acres on the water to 72 acres for individual investor/block resale potential. Priced from as little as $1,500 per acre up to $20,000 an acre. Add to all this, spectacular wildlife on the property, including giant iguanas, rare Howler Monkeys, colorful tropical birds, river lobsters, giant tarpons, and a variety of rare orchids and flowers.
