INDIAN CHURCH VILLAGE, ORANGE WALK
ON NEW RIVER LAGOON
CLOSE TO LAMANAI MAYA RUINS

56 acres of land located on the New River lagoon near Lamanai Maya ruins.



The property is located close to the friendly village of Indian Church, which is famous for the Maya ruins of Lamanai, and can be reached by road, air or sea. Indian Church village boasts 3 hotels and a private airstrip to cater to tourists visiting the ruins.



The property is reached by road via a good, all-weather road that goes from the Western Hwy., close to Orange Walk Town. It can also be reached by boat from the same location by taking the New River which leads to the lagoon on which sits the property. New River Lagoon is 27 miles long and also has an exit to the Caribbean Sea. Public transport also passes the property.



The property is rectangular in shape with one border on an access road and the other on the lagoon. It has a natural well from the lagoon and also a second, drilled well. There are several small buildings on the property including a cement storeroom, caretaker's hut and a greenhouse.


The owner has planted many mahogany trees on the land and also many fruit trees including sour sap, lime, nona, grapefruit, guava, canep, plantain, pineapple and papaya. There are small orange and coconut plantations.





The property attracts a lot of wildlife including howler monkeys, gibnut, deer, etc. and of course, many different types of birds.



The owner had planned to sub-divide the property into approximately 36 one acre lots, leaving an area large enough for small tourism business and boat dock. He also had plans for a tilapia pond.



This is a unique property located on a picturesque lagoon close to a Maya site popular with tourists. The new owner may also consider sub-dividing the property into a small residential development or may just prefer the peacefulness and solitude in having a home on a good sized parcel of land.
