If you are looking for something unique, this is pretty much the most unique thing you will find. The property consists of 5 acres, fenced and gated. There is only one building currently on the site, so there is plenty of room to expand. The place is powered by a 2400 watt/1150 amp/hr Outback Solar System with a 10kv diesel backup generator. The water set up is just as impressive. The water is pumped up from the river into a lovely 100,000 gallon settling pond. It then goes through a sand filter, two commercial sediment filters, and a UV light sterilizer into a 4000 gallon chlorinated cistern. Non-drinking water is then pumped into the house, while drinking water is put through a reverse osmosis filter system. The drinking water tests as pure as bottled water. If all that is too much, city water and electric are available – the owners choose to live green.
Aside from the lack of water and electric bills, there are a number of fruit trees and tropical plants. You'll find: over 100 palms, soursop, avocado, kumquat, guava, cashew, apple, banana, lychee, black sapote (chocolate pudding fruit tree), noni, allspice, breadfruit, mango, tangerine, lime, mahogany, teak, and Ceiba trees. There are also a number of orchid species and fruit bearing local trees that attract everything from toucans to parrots to iguanas, and the occasional howler monkey.
Bullet Tree Falls is a village of about 3000 people, which lies along both sides of the Mopan River. There are a few bars, restaurants, churches, grocery stores and all the things one expects to find in a village in Belize. English and Spanish are both spoken by pretty much everyone in the village so communication is not a problem.
This really is an amazing piece of land, with some very impressive extras.
