Finding an affordable property as a first-time homebuyer is hard, but there are still some gems out there—especially once you broaden your horizons abroad. Just listed for US$295k, this cute suburban 2-bedroom property in Cayo, Belize has serious curb appeal that’s move-in ready with hardwood furnishings. This is what making your move to Miverna Street, Cayo District with Vista Real Estate could look like in Belize.
Bright And Beautifully Move-In Ready
Its picket fence isn’t white, but with a towering palm tree and local Belizean hardwood trellis, this Cayo property still the personification of the perfect suburban home; except this time, it’s found in an inland town of Belize, Central America.
Sitting on a 100 ft. x 75 ft. property, this hillside home comes move-in-ready with elevated ground floors, a caretaker’s quarters, and two covered cemented and covered driveways.
It’s All In The Details
Cream-paneled wood wraps around the entire home, with grey detailing to contrast against richly-stained redwood framing and its matching front door. Brightness pours into its terracotta-tiled interior, thanks to natural sunlight that bounces off its white paneled wooden walls that run vertically—an optical illusion to lengthen the distance between that and its conventional flat but seamless ceiling. There’s a small bar area complete with stools in the kitchen, which is small but spaciously L-shaped to overlook the living room area through the windowed bar area.
And although one bedroom is tiled with horizontal blocks of local Belizean hardwood, the master has beautifully glossed hardwood floors to reflect light off its all wooden furnishings. Hardwood continues into the master ensuite bathroom, complete with marbled tilework for the walls and shower, and a wooden countertop for its double sink vanity.
Make Your Move To Minerva Street, Cayo
Listed by Vista Real Estate for US$295,000, the 2-bedroom home is within walking distance of major stores, restaurants, and businesses. San Ignacio is an up-and-coming town. Found within walking distance of this Cayo home, cafés and restaurants are open seven days a week. Not to mention, the town is a popular stop-off point for folks traveling to the Guatemala-Belize border. It’s also a short drive to the international airport in Belize City at about 1 hour and 45 minutes, though most of everything you’d need is right within San Ignacio.

This one is for those ready to make their move and go, ‘that’s a cute little house’, then suddenly look at San Ignacio as being an opportunity that they’ve never seen before. And if you’re ready to make Minerva Street, Cayo your new home address, you’ll also be pleasantly surprised by Belize’s peaceful neighborhoods plus close proximity to inland eco-adventures like birding, hiking, cave tubing, canoeing, and more.
