ACTIVE  Attractive Riverfront Home in Sittee River Village

Sittee River Village is a quiet and charming village nestled along the banks of the renowned Sittee River, which originates from the stunning Maya Mountains and flows into the ocean at Sittee Pointe.

The village boasts a vibrant mix of cultures and is home to some of the tallest mangrove trees in the country. It is a birdwatcher’s paradise with numerous species, including the national bird, the Keel-billed Toucan. Additionally, the area is rich in marine life, such as fresh fish and manatees.

Situated on 0.32 acres of high land along the riverbanks, this property is adorned with mature trees like mahogany, mango, Guanacaste, ackee, plumeria, cacao, coconut, and various other plants. The tall trees provide ample shade for outdoor activities.

The Home:

This home offers approximately 1400 square feet of living space across two stories, perfect for a laid-back lifestyle.

The first floor features a large screened deck suitable for an outdoor table, ideal for dining and family gatherings. Enter through double sliding glass doors to find the living room connected to a kitchen with teak cabinets and a dining area featuring a teak island. The air-conditioned bedroom is adjacent to an open-style tiled bathroom.

The second floor boasts two access points: a Dutch door leading into the second living room and kitchen, which feature a concrete countertop and refreshed Mahogany cabinets. The Mahogany floors throughout this floor add warmth. The bedrooms are located on opposite sides, separated by the living room and kitchen.
