Bayview Casa

Bayview Casa faces the wide, calm sweep of Corozal Bay from a landscaped double lot on 1st Avenue North. A single-storey layout with three bedrooms and two bathrooms, the house is built of concrete with a newer metal roof, and the front garden room — glazed on three sides — is where the owners take coffee every morning as the sun comes up over the water.

Corozal is Belize's value coast: a friendly, walkable town nine miles from the Mexican border, which puts the shopping malls, hospitals, and international airport of Chetumal within an easy half-hour. Many of the town's growing community of North American retirees settled here for exactly that combination of Caribbean frontage and first-world access.

The price was reduced in July and the sellers, who are consolidating back to the States, will consider reasonable offers and can include most furnishings. Homes directly on the bay avenue are seldom available at this figure.
