PRICE IMPROVEMENT – Seafront Colonial Home on Large Lot Along Southern Foreshore
Located in one of Belize City’s most Historic and Scenic neighbourhoods, Southern Foreshore, lies this three-storey Colonial residence on a deep Quarter Acre Lot. Southern Foreshore runs along the Caribbean Sea and its famous Seawall with picturesque views of the Caribbean Sea, Fort George and the iconic Baron Bliss Lighthouse. Down the street, a short walk away are the Bliss Institute of Performing Arts, the Supreme Court and Registry, St. John’s Cathedral and Belize’s House of Culture.
The property’s lot is unusually large offering plenty of room for additional structures or parking. The home, while almost a hundred years old, has been maintained over the years, especially its exterior and expansive verandahs overlooking the sea and the Foreshore. Owners have been careful to maintain the interior in its original form, with historic light fixtures, classic walls, hardwood floors and spacious bedrooms with high ceilings. A sense of history is felt walking through this very special property.
The Ground Floor is open and serves as a garage, storage and utility room, with an entrance and hardwood stairway leading to the First Floor where the residence begins. Two Bedrooms, a parlour, a massive Living Room, Bathroom and Kitchen complete the First Floor with a wide verandah lining the front with access doors leading out from the rooms. The interior stairway leads to the top floor that houses three additional bedrooms, a large Hall leading out to the verandah and two bathrooms.
Colonial homes in this part of Belize City are becoming increasingly rare with only a few being renovated to their former glory. Set just off of downtown and directly across from the Fort Street Tourism Village, this property offers multiple opportunities and options for redevelopment not just as a single family home; opportunities exist in the hospitality and multi-family residential markets.
This property is situated in a strategic location. The area benefits from the availability of all amenities. It is located in an area poised for redevelopment and enhancement of services already available.
