Mount Hope Retreat; Private 21 acre Hilltop Estate in the Cayo Heartlands, Uniteville

Description

Mount Hope Retreat is a 21-acre hillside property in the Mount Hope / Society Hall area of the Cayo District, situated and the perfect spot between Belmopan, San Ignacio, and Spanish Lookout. It’s the kind of place that feels quiet and tucked away, but you’re never far from town, supplies, or daily essentials. The property is made up of three adjacent parcels of land that are being sold together. Two of them have direct highway frontage on the George Price Highway, which makes getting in and out very easy. Reserved road access takes you to the larger back parcel providing a 16 acre well-maintained estate sized parcel. That’s where the real character of the property comes through as it creates a private hidden sanctuary tucked away within the surrounding landscape. The land offers elevations of up to 280 feet above sea level, with several natural high points that look out over the surrounding Cayo farmland. There are all-weather roads inside the property, so you can drive around and reach different parts of the property without cutting new paths. It’s easy to picture building a main home on one hilltop, maybe a guest house on another, or just enjoying the space as it is. There’s already a two-storey 1-bedroom cabin on the property with a wide wrap-around veranda, which is perfect for sitting outside and taking in the views and breeze. Below the cabin is a solid concrete level that’s currently used for storage. There’s also a separate 2-bedroom caretaker’s house, and the caretaker currently lives there and looks after the land. Utilities are nearby and accessible, which is a big plus for a property of this size. You get the feeling of being in nature, without being completely off the grid or isolated. The Mount Hope Retreat would suit someone looking for a private home wi
