Mulege Getaway Home

This beautiful home on the Rio Oasis is ready to become your ideal Mexican getaway. Located in Mulege, on one of the largest fenced and gated lots on the riverfront. Gorgeous views up and down the river. Also on site is a huge garage/shop to accommodate all the toys/tools that come with.

Two separate NEW guest casitas with private bathrooms and showers. A nice laundry room with washer and dryer included. Enjoy your own citrus and banana trees out back with varieties of oranges, grapefruit, lemons and limes plus many types of bananas. All in your own intimate private fenced back yard. The front porch has sweeping scenery of the river and mountains to the north and is abundant with birdlife. All this comes with absolutely everything one could want in terms of tools, toys, and technology.
The house is FULL of furniture, art, appliances, linens and all the house wares a family could ask for. There is a large walk-in closet in the master bedroom and tiled walk-in shower in the master bath. Sliding glass doors open to the back tiled porch that overlooks the river. This is a completely turn-key operation; just bring your wardrobe.

If you like your time on the water you're in luck! This property comes with a 28' custom made Super Panga with 4 fighting seats, live well, tons of storage, and a range of around 300 miles with its 65 gallon gas tank powered by a 4 stroke Honda outboard. It's completely outfitted with all the state of the art electronics, camping, and fishing gear for the whole family. Nothing is left out or needed for an instant getaway on the Sea of Cortez. There is also a second smaller boat, a 15' Gregor with a 4 stroke Honda outboard with less than 20 hours on it that's also in the package. Will also include; 3 ATVs with very low miles, 2 brand new sit on top kayaks, plus 2 great mountain bikes to complete the outdoorsmen deal. Oh! Don’t forget all the power and hand tools a guy could want or need to make this a very special deal. It's all part of the package as we are getting older and need to downsize.

The house is very comfy and is tiled throughout. All the doors throughout are custom made onsite, adding a beautiful homemade touch. Along with all the dining furniture which was custom made last year and is gorgeous. A large flat screen TV comes with and satellite TV is available. The property also has wireless internet, telephone landline, and a radio base station to communicate with boat while on the water.

A gas range/stove, a refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave etc, is all in place. An extra reefer and chest freezer is plugged in and working in the adjacent shop. All the beds in the unit are American made; California King in the master bedroom and queens in the guest casitas (detached guest rooms).
We think this is as good as it gets down here and are offering it at this really low price as we just can't get down there anymore like we used to and still have two businesses up north to attend to. We live in northern Washington State so feel free to call if you would like more info.

Call me, mike, at 360-461-1243 for more info.
Roughly 1500 square ft of living space.

SFandH - 2-5-2016 at 01:11 PM

Nice furnished home with all the toys and a stocked workshop. Talk about a "turn-key" deal!

Good luck on the sale!

JC43 - 2-5-2016 at 04:07 PM

well, you are talking about all the positive things of your house - which is o.k.
But why don`t you talk honestly about the negative issues as well like how many times this house - and all those homes being washed into the sea of Cortez - was flooded over the rooftop? Was it 5 times? Or 6 times? Was it flooded before you purchased it when K. Smith owned it? And what about the $$$$ cleaning and repair costs you had to invest to repair it five or six times? Well, maybe there is a dummy falling out of the bus tomorrow.........good luck!

mulegemichael - 2-5-2016 at 04:47 PM

Hey JC43....whatever your motivation is, I can't find it in your post??...I think I very clearly said we are located on the river. Do you see some hidden agenda here?. We still enjoy our time down there. I believe we are an integral part of a very tightknit community. You must have a very sad and lonely life if you need to strike out unprovoked rather than contribute to a positive conversation. I'm so sorry you're hurting.

bajabuddha - 2-5-2016 at 05:28 PM

Been waiting for Jayzus Craphead 43 to show..... what took so long, FH? Good luck Michael, ignore the Rampant Troll... he'll be back, spewing vitriol as usual. Guy's got a grudge... and has to live with it.

chuckie - 2-5-2016 at 05:45 PM

JC43 is without doubt, the biggest ahole extant..Phony conman loser not even a has been,.a never was.....This place is a steal, and I hate to see MM go....But all good things come to an end....JC43 is a turd in our punchbowl....

Were in the world is your "positive conversation" amigo?
Can`t find it.
You are stating to be located `on the river´which certainly means your property is located at the river or in the river valley at the most. I do not recall seeing any dwelling "on the river". But all along the river valley it is sad enough when a hurricane shows up and the entire river valley is flooded higher than the roofs of any home.
But you have good support selling your x-times flooded home: All well known pinheads here are at your side. So, don`t you worry. There will be a dummy falling out of the bus someday to have a look at your property. You only can hope that he is dumb enough to step into a deal which others are eager to step out of. :fire:

Tioloco - 2-5-2016 at 09:30 PM

Mulegemichael, looks like a great place and I wish you the best with your sell.
JC43- Not everyone had a Shi....tty job and eeked out a miserable living to retire only to begrudge anyone in a better position than oneself. We all feel bad for you.... Maybe we can find it in our hearts to start a collection to help offset the misery you must be mired in. I for one will donate a meal and a drink to you to start tomorrow off on a better foot than today. Good luck, tomorrow is a new day!

JC43 - 2-6-2016 at 10:24 AM

Unlike those pinheads here who are only supporting those who try to sell their endangered homes and are trying to pull others over the table by selling their many time flooded property I have a motivation for my posts.
Those guys owning a home in the river valley made a mistake in the past. They purchased a home in a flood zone. That was a mistake! Thy learned it the hard way that living in a flood zone is dangerous and costly. Now all those who are trying to sell their properties - no matter if they are living in the Orchard or Oasis or Mirandas or down the river - by not telling honestly that the property was flooded many times, are trying to pull potential customers over the table.
Do you think that is honest??? Supporting those who are trying to pull others over the table is pinhead behavior at its best.
Fishhead once stated right here in BajaNomad: Living in a flood zone is easy. In case of a hurricane, just move the entire household to a storage. Let the floodwaters go through your house. After the flood is gone just wash the house with a pressure washer. Let it dry and move back in.
What a big lie by ignoring the real facts:

1. You got to have a pick-up or rent a transportation possibility.
2. You pay for a storage unit - if available > if not ???
3. You pay for the hotel while not using your house
4. Flood waters can damage your structure badly. Doors and windows are gone!
5. Washing w/ a pressure washer does not remove the 20inch of mud.
6. The mud is stinky like hell.
7. "Let it dry" is a lie. Painting the entire house after pressure washing is mandatory!
8. Moving in is a nightmare as well. Three times moving a household is like being burned completely.
9. The river valley was flooded about six times during the past 10 years.
Last not least. Having fun, going fishing, looks very different to me!
Now you pinheads: R U catching the point???

SFandH - 2-6-2016 at 10:37 AM

Now you pinheads: R U catching the point???

I think everyone understands your point.

micah202 - 2-6-2016 at 10:50 AM

.

....caveat emptor. If someone actually buys a house on the river without hearing of flood possibilities, it's pretty much their own fault.

the price certainly seems to take such possibilities into account.

Beachgirl - 2-6-2016 at 11:07 AM

Oh my goodness! Living in the tropics is fabulous, and sometimes a bit of a challenge. I don't know JC43, but apparently this person would rather not live anywhere in a tropical zone. There is a very large band around the earth which includes at a casual glance to cover at least ONE HUNDRED places which could sustain hurricane weather. JC43, you might want to make a list of these countries and areas to be certain you avoid any contact. North America, Central America, the Caribbean, Central, East and West Africa, and Southeast Asia...or, you could be creative and start sabotaging real estate ads on a global basis. Please discontinue making posts on the ad for our home. If you want to stand on a bandwagon, run for President.

Beachgirl - 2-6-2016 at 01:54 PM

Now we can get back to civilized communication about our house! By the way you can U2U us with questions. Nomads limits photos, so we have lots more, taken last month. Thanks.

I like the idea to run for President. Even more the idea to challenge Donald Trump! Only thing is, I am an American, but born in Mexico. Raised and lived in San Diego for 40 years, now living in CSL. Lived in Mulege for six years some time ago. Well down here in CSL we had a terrible hurricane last year. Although located on a hillside and winds are "storming" against my home, I had no damage at all. Reason for that, my home is not located in a river valley! Beachgirl, your hubby stated that he was honest telling your house is located at the river.
That statement triggers something very positive to any potential customer.
But in fact in Mulege it is very negative, don`t you think?
Not being honest is same: Negative.
@micah202: Are you that naïve to think that everybody in the US knows about the problems inside the Mulege river valley? That it is their fault if they buy something in the river valley? Yep, I agree: it is their fault being pulled over the table by dishonest sellers. And there are many of those dishonest guys trying to sell their endangered properties to others who do not know about the river valley. Look at all ads, here, BajaQuest, Craigslist, everywhere, all sellers trying to get rid of their endangered properties in the valley are not stating honestly what is going on. They are offering their properties for cheap, cheaper, cheapest! Just to catch the one guy who is dumb enough not to make a proper research. I am only asking for some more honesty - that`s all.

LancairDriver - 2-6-2016 at 02:23 PM

Looks like a smokin good deal, particularly the turn key house with furnishings and all of the toys necessary to enjoy Mulege area to the max. Should sell quickly.

mtnpop - 2-6-2016 at 05:41 PM

God, I was hopin that JC43 had found something else get on a soapbox about... She just can't leave it alone... There are no guarantees anywhere you plant yourself...
Pretty hard to not know what has happened in Mulege over the last 10 years.
You all knowing preacher but there are many folks that choose to take the chance.. You can't find a much nicer place to winter. It's not really any of your business but you make it so... Take a hike princess.....
Oh well, nuff said, she is never gonna let it go and what a waste of time arguing with a pinhead...
Good luck Mike and Roz.. it is a pleasure to know you and you can see by the pictures which are current how well some folks take care of their property after the flood events..
Take care...

Beachgirl - 2-6-2016 at 08:58 PM

Mulege boasts, or should, about having the second oldest mission on the Baja Peninsula. It is remote, beautiful, almost untouched by the ugly tourist population, and I am almost afraid to mention this, as I don't want this to change. Do not move to Mulege if you have in mind a fashion show in your suitcase to parade down the boulevard. This is a raw place, with real residents, real locals. Pig races, Dorado tournaments, a small local community of real people wanting to just swap lies at the local bar...or not. People who live in Mulege are strong, intelligent, interesting people who don't give a damn about a storm now and then. Who really cares? We move our stuff, hunker down, and then move back into our homes after the storms. What is the issue here? We live in a tropical zone. We have warm winters, great fishing opportunities, fabulous friends in our little community. Rent a storage space, move your stuff, move it back in, who cares? It is a fabulous little loving community NOT for sissies. Anyone want to be sissy? Live somewhere else. Mulege is awesome, the people are fantastic, and the community is wonderful.

Brinloor - 2-7-2016 at 11:35 AM

"Do not move to Mulege if you have in mind a fashion show in your suitcase to parade down the boulevard."

Oh that's precious, coming from the woman who brings an elf costume in her suitcase every year

The local kids are going to miss you as much as your friends and neighbours will.

...as I said in my post,, 'caveat emptor',,buyer beware. If a person buys a place -anywhere-but especially in baja, they should exercise due diligence. Land title,,local conditions,, are only a couple of things one must investigate. If someone doesn't go beyond seller's word an -any- purchase they deserve what they get.

That said,,,even knowing -fully- the possibilities of living on-river in Mulege,,,that seems like an alluring price for the package. Many would decide that the downside possibilities outweigh the allure of the good times!

Best advice for anyone going to baja is to have a mobile home or rent first,,,know what you're getting into before you buy. Anyone not doing this basically deserves what they get.

Jc43 speaks truth, just not very politely.
The RE ads for these mileage places on river should disclose that these river houses flood every few years, the floods are frequent. I have never seen the ads disclose that floods are frequent,... I don't think the ads ever mention floods

dtbushpilot - 2-8-2016 at 07:54 AM

The add is posted on Baja Nomads, everyone that participates here (the few that are left) are well aware of the flooding potential in the river valley. Nobody is trying to hide anything from a potential buyer.

It's unfortunate that your post has gone in the toilet like the rest of the posts on Nomads Mike, your place is great and a bargain at the asking price. Perhaps posting the add on a web site that is followed by sober adults would be a good idea. Good luck with the sale....

JC43 - 2-8-2016 at 10:58 AM

mtgoat666
You are absolutely right: Not very polite what I had to say. But it is hard to be polite seeing sellers of homes located in the Mulege river valley trying to pull other Americans over the table. Mulegemichael said: I mentioned honestly the house is located on the river. That statement triggers something very positive. Exactly that is not honest as folks NoB are not aware that the Mulege river is dangerous to dwellings during hurricanes. The many homes formerly along the flood zone washed into the Gulf of California are the best evidence to that! And, you are right again. No word about the potential danger of floods is mentioned in the post.

@ dtbushpilot
I agree that everyone HERE is aware of the potential danger inside the flood zone.
But all ads here - this one , COL`s and others - are targeting potential byers NOT reading BajaNomad on a regular base. Those who are scrolling through the net by occasion looking for a home in Baja.
Now, this might be a surprise to everyone here: Yes, I agree, the price tag on this property is 100% o.k. Considering that just some years ago K. Smith sold the property to Mulegemicheal and Beachgirl for more than 200K. (::: rumor, not sure! Info from 3rd party) Even more thinking about boat, Quads etc. coming w/ the deal.
As always, there is a "But" to a low price. Question is, who wants to own a home > looking for fun, going fishing and having a good time < but every two years or so, a potential new owner has to come several weeks not having fun, spending $$$ cleaning his new home from mud, buying new furniture, painting the home and restoring flood damage.
That is the question which needs to be answered.

Last not least. Why is it that nearly all home owners along the flood zone of the river are trying to get rid of their homes??? For cheap! Despite the fact that they purchased or built the home some years ago for many $$$ more than they are now asking for?

Beachgirl - 2-8-2016 at 05:26 PM

Thank you, friends, for your lovely comments about our house, and about us, and, of course, about our dear Mulege, and yes, I will cop to the elf costume comment, but am proud to stand with my husband, mulegemichael, Santa Claus in various places in Baja for over 20 years. Above all else, we love our friends, and our community. That is something that cannot be replaced, or erased from our memories. Today I went through our Gringo Phone Book, and our photo albums, and flashed over our years there in our beautiful home. Birthday parties with the (Mexican Beatles) Districo 13, Geoffrey Castle, community dinners with everyone bringing fish to Cliff Taylor's, a dear, dear wonderful gentle soul, fishing at Mateo's Hole, hugs and an afternoon c-cktail at Bart's, dinner on the riverside night after night sitting in tank tops and shorts in February, friends walking by on the riverfront with (or without) dog(s), popping in for a chat, squeezing our own orange juice from our own orange trees, fishing tournaments for Dorado, carnitas on Saturday mornings at Dany's, the Bloody Marys at El Candil - the finest worldwide, drives to Santa Inez for long walks and sand dollars where not another person was seen all day, planting our feet in the sand at El Patron while enjoying their perfect seafood soup, reading/napping while slack-jawed in a recliner outside, shopping at Saul David's and scoring half-and-half, whale watching in the lagoon after a night in San Ignacio in a yurt. We will have these amazing experiences in our hearts until we die. What can compare to that?

[Edited on 2-9-2016 by Beachgirl]

I'm sure your recollections put a smile on many faces reading your post; they sure did on mine. Cliff walked me around your house when I was down last Fall and it is a beautiful spot; the largest lot in the Oasis and a dream for anyone with a family and time on their hands to spend in Baja. Your description of Mulege earlier was spot on as well. Sure, there are perils with owning a home in a remote area adjacent to a river, but perils exist anywhere (even in the hills of coastal Orange County, where we have our share of fires and mudslides). Like any real estate transaction, a buyer needs to do their diligence and make an informed decision.

Anyone in the market should definitely check out this spot; it is fantastic. I wish I had more time to spend down there. Although I have never met the buyers, I have certainly heard their names and always in positive terms. This is not a fire sale by any means.

Mulege is definitely a place where memories are made.

If it matters at all I had the pleasure to put a face to the name mulegemichael at a super bowl party downtown.....the year that the Who played half time. Very nice older gentleman who seemed well liked at the party. Sometimes I forget how many "old guys" are on this forum! They are usually the ones with all the great experiences though.

Beachgirl - 2-10-2016 at 05:38 PM

Baron - You gave me my daily dose of laughter. Mulegemichael is nine years older than you, my friend! Thank you for the nice comment, though. Old Guys Rule!

baron - 2-10-2016 at 08:41 PM

So what'd I say? Nice older guy? Like that is how I remember him. I mean to put faces to some of these guys can be a surprise. lol If he is 9 yrs older than me....he be gettin old!
And now it makes sense that he wants to sell and go back home!! Somewhere like Bainbridge Island? Great place.
BTW anyone that visits any of those places on the river would obviously ask the question.....How often does it flood here? Hardly any need to talk about it. Its called due diligence.
