Development Opportunity in Stann Creek, Placencia, Belize

Excellent Marina/Com/Res Development Opportunity

This vacant property is ideal for a marina, commercial or residential development in the booming town of Placencia, Belize (Southern Belize). The land has been cleared and filled and the marina has been dredged. The location is exceptional in that it is located south of the current airstrip, near the Francis Coppola Turtle Inn Resort and just a few minutes to the center of the rapidly developing tourism town of Placencia. This location is of very high demand. Development parcels are very rare close to the actual town of Placencia making this property a needle in a haystack. Contact me for a complete survey. Title is immediately available. Development options include:
+ marina development
+ dry boat storage (none exists on entire 16-mile placencia peninsula
+ gas station for vehicles and boats - only 3 exist on entire peninsula
+ Water-front condos with boat slips
+ single family home development

Creative and favorable owner financing is available!

An opportunity exists to purchase the 4 acre 250'-wide Caribbean beach front parcel across the street. This combination would allow for a significant development opportunity with water access on both sides (condo/hotel resort on the beach & marina development on the lagoon side). A nearby condo development has been very successful. The beach property includes 2 existing homes and a 4-unit road side commercial building.

This property could also be purchased for a buy and hold strategy. Land, and especially development land, is very limited here. Belize's 2nd international airport is under construction at the north end of the 16-mile peninsula with direct charter flights from Europe and Canada (Toronto) already scheduled. These will be the first direct flights to Belize from Europe! An 18-hole pro golf course is also under construction as is a 300 slip yacht marina, casino and more. The Caribbean Development Bank is currently funding the paving of our 23 mile Placencia Road with completion scheduled for the summer of 2010. Considerable money is currently being invested here and the government as well as a few lucky developers are committed to making this THE next destination not to be missed. Canadians and Americans are building very nice homes on the peninsula. The current Prime Minister of Belize also has a second home in Placencia.
