Located above the quiet fishing village of Carrot Bay Lone Palm is a seven-minute drive to Long Bay and Cane Garden Bay - the best beaches on Tortola - and even less to the great little beach at Apple Bay home of the Sugar Mill or Capoons Bay home of the Bomba Shack and the best surfing on the Island.
This just-completed architect-designed residence lies a short steep ascent to about 400 feet which affords extraordinary views of Jost Van Dyke Sandy Cay and West to St. Thomas. After a day on the water exploring Nature?s Little Secrets or on the beach retire to this cooler drier quieter elevation still within sight and sound of the surf.
The main living area is comprised of a great room including a large fully equipped kitchen with island dining area buffet and bar and a large family area. Also on the first floor are two master bedrooms each with en suite baths and truly lovely ocean views and a third bedroom with garden view and full bath. The house is surrounded on three sides by a wide verandah nicely accessible from all the bedrooms and the great room. The large front porch leads to the parking areas the downstairs suite and the outdoor warm-water shower.
Breakfast lunch and dinner can be served inside at the island (seats 4) or on the verandah (seats 10 at two teak tables). Or in the Great Room at the table that seats 8. We recommend taking your morning coffee on the verandah amidst the soft tropical breeze with a wide-sweeping view of one of the Caribbean?s most spectacular island profiles dotted with sailboats of all sizes.
A downstairs suite with separate outside entrance includes bedroom full bath kitchenette and outstanding views.
Formerly rich terraced farmland growing banana yams sugar cane and tapia the property is now abundant with banana papaya and other fruit trees. The stone-walled front access is professionally landscaped with tropical flowers and palms and outdoor lighting enhances the natural beauty after sundown. Ample parking for you and your guests
