Villa with terrace Freshwater Pond (British Virgin Islands)
Built in 2002, this ridge-top home at the top of Belmont is the epitome of Caribbean living, a great place to do something or nothing at all. Built with an open plan that makes the most of the huge views, the property includes a separate building for the master bedroom, an expansive flat lawn, a large pool, and a hip Mediterranean design. The 3-bed, 2-bath layout makes the most of the 1.32 acre parcel, and there is nearly an acre left untouched. Although it is located at the top of Belmont Mountain, it is remarkably accessible to the West End and Sopers Hole, which are the ‘town’ on the West End of Tortola. To the North, the view of Hans Lollik in the west, Jost van Dyke, and Sandy Cay, and Cane Garden Bay to the east is very impressive. To the south, the view includes St. John and Frenchman’s Cay. As it is located in Belmont Estate, it is just a short drive to two of the best beaches in the BVI - Smuggler’s Cove and Long Bay. The property is nicely landscaped with mature trees of all types, and there is a large turning area in the driveway with room for a carport or garage if needed. Spindrift has a different ‘feel’ than most other villas because the nearly level homesite is something quite rare in the Virgin Islands, and the views put all the others to shame. Huge wooden beams support the central roof, while the rest of the buildings are entirely built of concrete, for superior weather resistance. Modern windows, tasteful fittings, and a hip almost playful approach to interior design give Spindrift a special vibe. The wide-open spaces and lawns make the location unique. The strong construction on a Caribbean hilltop with sweeping views give it lasting value. And the acre of untouched land on the parcel provides a clean palette to continue bringing your own visions of perfection to reality. · Cisterns 22,000 gallons · 3 bedrooms · 2 baths · Large pool · Hilltop location · Fantastic 360 degree views · Outdoor shower · Outdoor, open kitchen · Mature landscaping · AC in bedrooms · Ceiling fans · Large parking area · Washer/dryer · Dishwasher · Newer appliances · On demand hot water heaters

SummerSalt is located in the most popular area of Tortola for many vacation rental properties and long-term residents alike. SummerSalt is newly renovated with all new appliances. The proximity to two of the best beaches in the BVI may have something to do with it or it could simply be the quiet charm of the carefully planned development. Sequestered at the end of a private country lane, on 0.9 acres, the property overlooks Smuggler’s Cove – for many, the best beach the BVI has to offer – palm fringed and soft white sand, there is also much to appreciate underwater while snorkeling. SummerSalt comprises two villas, one on each side of the swimming pool terrace, providing space and privacy for the occupants. The main house, with its large Great Room and impressive vaulted ceiling, has French doors leading onto the covered dining patio and the pool terrace. The designer kitchen is the focus of the room and boasts a 12-foot long, custom-built, mahogany bar. In the master bedroom, French doors open to the verandah, and the en suite bathroom has an outdoor, stone shower, from which to secretly enjoy the view of the beach below. The living areas are all on the ground floor with two bedrooms and shared bathroom located on the lower level of the main house. All the bedrooms are air-conditioned. The guest house is self-contained with its own custom built kitchen and dining area, bedroom and en suite bathroom. The view of the islands and beaches are something to behold from every room and vantage point on the property. There is ample parking for at least two vehicles and yet one-half of the property remains undeveloped, leaving the potential for construction of another guest house, larger swimming pool and even perhaps an outdoor kitchen.

Sugar Cane's colors reflect nature and tranquility, seemingly absorbing the raw beauty from right outside the windows in one of Tortola's most prestigious neighbourhoods. A large lot, with local-stone faux ruins, brick courtyards, and a pathway lined with endemic vegetation, the construction was supervised by one of the islands finest architects, Michael Arneborg, with more than 30 years of experience in the British Virgin Islands. Built from traditional construction materials, but to a much higher standard than the usual, this house accentuates, instead of detracts from, its indigenous settings.

The kitchen features high-end stainless steel appliances and plenty of counter space with open cabinets overhead. Large French doors open to beautiful and professionally designed courtyards with a barbecue patio. The combination of reclaimed Old Chicago Brick within the faux ruin stonewalls, is reminiscent of the colonial period. A vented cathedral ceiling allows better airflow and heat reduction. Downstairs there are three additional rooms; one bedroom with en suite full bath; a private sitting room; and an office and pump room. Beautiful grey-green slate tile accentuates the artistically custom-laid floors throughout the home. The house was placed on the corner of the lot among mature trees in a way that allows expansion of the living areas. There is ample room for a pool and extra buildings, depending on the future owner’s needs and desires. The property has many established trees, traveler palms, and other indigenous growth which require no irrigation. There is a small, optionally irrigated, garden in the courtyard. This perfect little cottage also offers paths leading down to the beach at Smuggler's Cove.

With it’s hilltop location, offering both panoramic views and continual Northeast to Southwest breezes, this idyllic home proudly lives up to its name. This 3 bedroom home has been handsomely crafted by the current owners to easily pass any structural engineer’s evaluation and gets top scores by those who like to live year-round in the BVI or frequently travel while keeping a home there. The current original home owners rented for several years before choosing this pragmatic and central location. They used the help of a well-known local Caribbean architect, Paul Whattley who carefully created their own island paradise. A great deal of attention has been given to each and every design concept and structural feature. and because it was so well-built and continually well-maintained, that one would never guess it’s age of 20 years. Those of us who have lived on an island for any length of time will appreciate the value of such a functional home with superior structural integrity, built to stand against wind, salt air and geological shifts. My personal wish list for a perfect Caribbean retreat would include many of the built-in features this particular home.

The lower apartment can be entered from its own parking on the south side which also uses only a few steps to enter. Both independent living spaces offer a full kitchen, spacious living room, walk-through closets, large bedrooms which are designed to suit king-sized beds, and very high cathedral ceilings on the main floor above of pressure treated pine or pickled tongue in groove or concrete ceilings with a height of 10 feet below. This retreat offers a sturdy sliding electric gate at the entrance leading to the large turnaround driveway, aromatic botanical gardens surround the property with stone lined and terraced pathways that lead to several mature fruit trees such as bananas, lime, olive, cherry and guava. The hot tub offers a relaxing therapeutic respite and is often used on clear starlit nights and wisely placed on the leeward side of the deck.

Villa Tortola (British Virgin Islands)
Welcome to Colibri House! If you like living among trees in a natural forest setting, and don’t want a pool because Smuggler’s Cove is just a short footpath away, this house will be great for you. It is located in one of the best settings of Belmont Estate, on the North shore of West End, Tortola. Belmont Estate is one of the best locations on the island because it is facing North, meaning it is partly protected from the sun and gets more rain than the South shore. It therefore has more trees and is more shady. People come from other parts of the island to walk or jog on the estate. Colibri House is high enough above sea-level to have a nice view toward Jost van Dyke, Sandy Cay and Green Cay, and the Western small islands, above Gun Point. Yet it has a short path to one of the best beaches on Tortola, Smuggler’s Cove. The parcel is 0.7 acres with much of the quasi-tropical forest left around the house, so that none of the neighbouring houses is visible, providing perfect privacy. As you enter from the parking behind the house down a few steps, you find yourself in a central partly-covered patio with the living area to the left and master bedroom to the right. The living room opens to a covered and tiled veranda for outdoor dining itself extended with an open wooden deck. Adjacent, across a serving counter, is the well equipped kitchen and a small storage room. The furniture is mainly Balinese, made of solid teak wood, most appropriate and resistant in the tropical climate. There are three ceiling fans in this area. The master bedroom is reached through a gate with a small corridor. It is 268 square feet. It originally consisted of two separate rooms (and could quite easily be separated again into two rooms). It is cooled by two fans and/or an air conditioner. Here too, the furniture is Balinese solid teak wood. The main bathroom has a sunken bath with a shower. It is separated from the bedroom by a glass panel, with stained glass work showing a marine environment, that will stay with the house. There is also a second bathroom with toilet and sink. From the bedroom, two louvered glass doors open onto a wooden deck, with a wonderful view. In the lower part of the house, there is the second bedroom with its own bathroom and shower (as well as an outside shower), and a slightly elevated alcove that provides cosy extra living space. This lower area is reached from the central patio by a flight of stairs. There are three water tanks (providing over 18 ’ 000 gallons of rain water storage), a pump and storage room, a laundry (with a hot water heater and gas dryer) and a workshop. Colibri House was built in 1976 following drawings of well-known BVI architect Roger Downing. The central wall across the two sides is a marking architectural feature; it is decorated by a painting of the Nazca lines hummingbird. The house has withstood all hurricanes without damage up to Irma and Maria in 2017, when parts of the roof flew off. It has since been rebuilt even more solidly. Hurricane Irma led to the installation of a 22 kW generator run on liquid gas, which can easily power the whole house. Colibri House offers 1500 sq ft of interior space, 400 sq ft of exterior covered space and 100 sq ft of uncovered wooden decks. It is relatively small and compact, but for someone willing to invest, it would be easy to add a separate building and a swimming pool.

Villa with pool Tortola (British Virgin Islands)
As its name suggests, Bella Vista delivers one of the most spectacular views in all of the Caribbean. This hurricane survivor was firmly constructed on a gentle knoll and only a casual walking distance to both Long Bay Beach and the National Park of Smuggler’s Cove in Belmont Estates, West End, Tortola. When sitting or lounging by the pool, one can see several BVI and USVI outer islands which adorn the north western horizon, including views all the way to Puerto Rico. The main floor is all on one level, so there are no steps to be concerned with. This 3 bedroom 3 bath cottage-styled home is perfect for small children or elderly grandparents and offers an overflow guest room below the upper deck, which can also multi purpose as a rather large owner’s lockup and storage room when the main house upstairs is in holiday let. The house was designed by an English architect with a passion for designing beachside, hurricane-resistant, New England cottage-styled homes. He specifically focused on indoor-outdoor comfort which is a traditional Caribbean style. The pool and spacious outdoor lounging areas face North and catching easterly breezes and the glorious western sunsets. Bella Vista was built approximately 40 years ago and has been loved and cherished by its former owners, who found it always difficult to leave. It offers a very special ambiance and location within the ever popular Belmont Residential Estate. Bella Vista remains an excellent vacation rental or private residence.

The circle drive way offers double entrances so parking or maneuvering to get in or out is never a problem.

Villa with pool Leonards (British Virgin Islands)
Fond memories remain long after viewing this charming caribbean villa. Folie a Deux boasts dramatic views of Brewer’s Bay with its two beaches and nightly displays glorious sunsets that can simply take your breath away. “Dancing for Two” lingers in your thoughts as the setting sun takes its final bow and dips over the horizon showcasing both Jost van Dyke and St Thomas in the distance. Island visitors are often enchanted by its well-planned design, perfect for either quiet relaxation or entertaining. This spacious 3 bedroom, 3 bathroom restful getaway, complemented with lush gardens and quiet location is only a 10 or 20 minute drive to shops, restaurants, seaports and the International Beef Island Airport. Folio a Deux rests on .77 of an acre and boasts its short walk to the secluded north eastern section of Brewers Bay Beach (where a tumble of shoreside rocks conveniently separates this secret beach from the primary Brewers Bay beach). The main house dwelling consists of a grand 30’ x 19’ foot Great Room complete with entertaining kitchen designed by two renowned chefs. It includes an oversized kitchen island, a pantry, a broom closet, and hidden spaces for countertop wares neatly tucked away behind roll down kitchen cabinetry. The adjoining living area boasts a 15 ft high vaulted ceiling with several ceiling fans and six 8 foot high double French doors which grant access and picture perfect views to either a covered dining and lounging garden or an outdoor veranda overlooking the serene waters of Brewer’s Bay. The veranda is framed with Caribbean accents of decorative gingerbread trim, enhanced by the aroma of fragrant frangipani and hibiscus blossoms. A gracefully curved swimming pool with extended wooden decks and garden terraces offer relaxing sunbathing with lounge chairs nested behind the mature gardens and shaded by tall palms and overhanging tree foliage. With the French doors opened, the main house extends to incorporate both the seaside facing shaded veranda and the courtyard garden patio which flow together to create a large entertainment pavilion, perfect for intimate indoor/outdoor dining, quiet afternoon teas, celebratory family dinners, large garden parties and/or casual neighborhood get-togethers. The foundations and structures have been designed and constructed to last a lifetime and are designed to meet both BVI and Miami Dade Hurricane building codes, using reinforced steel, concrete and heavy beamed cathedral styled ceilings of pressure treated pine beams bolted and secured into the supporting ring beams and foundational columns. Similarly constructed are the three additional air-conditioned bedroom pods, each with spacious king-sized bedroom floor plans while also offering en-suite full bathrooms and extra deep walk-in wardrobes. Below the southern most master bedroom is a spacious storeroom/laundry room which could be converted to a 4th bedroom, if needed. The first guest bedroom located closest the to the kitchen/living room structure is presently used as a 2-person office with an extended painting studio or arts and crafts area. The adjoining walkways are finished with native stone walls and imported Saltillo Mexican clay tiles, which connect each bungalow back to the covered courtyard, complete with both outdoor lounging and dining areas surrounded by a canopy of Petra vines, hanging orchids and night blooming jasmine. This part of Tortola has only a scattering of a few nearby family homes, formed within a small covenanted private estate, and bounded by the protected waters of Brewer’s Bay below and Anderson Point National Park, which also provides access to a government boat ramp and trailer storage area. Folie a Deux is being sold with most of its current furnishings. The interior decor is a testament to its well-designed sophisticated Caribbean style. Surrounded by mature tropical fruit trees and fragrant gardens, Folie a Deux will cast a spell on any who wander into her charming embrace.
