About this Property
Located close to Marouga Beach (approximately 5-10 minutes walking distance), and close to the main road, with easy access to all utilities (such as T&TEC, WASA & Flow). The lot comprises 7,042 sq. ft. mostly rectangular in shape, level, gently sloping in topography, and it appears to be fairly drained. As an existing earth drain runs along this section of La Lune Road, however, a 2016 valuation report by Terra Caribbean indicated that some drainage infrastructural improvement is needed to facilitate proper run-off during periods of heavy and consistent rainfall.
About the Region
Moruga
The village of Moruga lies on the central south coast of Trinidad at the western end of the Trinity Hills. It is in the Victoria County, Trinidad and Tobago, and is served by the Princes Town Regional Corporation.
The village is close to Trinidad's oil reserves, and fishing are the area's main economies with some of the residents of the community working in Princes Town and San Fernando. It is somewhat of a rural dormitory district for these larger urban areas.
The main communities within the Moruga district (heading south from Princes Town) are Indian Walk, Fifth Company, Preau (St Mary's), Cachipe, Rock River, Basse Terre, Bois Jean Jean, Grand Chemin, La Lune and Marac, with the last three communities located on the coast.
Basse Terre has the largest population and Grand Chemin is the location of the major government buildings such as the local police station, library and public health facility.
Moruga Proper hosts the Moruga museum, a small museum depicting the history of Moruga and Trinidad. Moruga is said to be the place where Christopher Columbus landed when he discovered Trinidad.
