St.
Thomas Villa 2
Casual
elegance and Caribbean style define this wonderful and private
five-bedroom hilltop home located at the end of a cul-de-sac,
colored in soothing pale yellow with green shutters, and built
around a garden courtyard in a classic West Indian design. A
native stone archway and stone walkways threaded through
tropical landscaping connect the courtyard with the villa's
three pavilions.
The
main pavilion houses the spacious Great Room, which shares space
with a formal dining area and the adjoining, just-remodeled
gourmet kitchen, so inviting with granite countertops and a
graceful arched stone wall. The main pavilion is bordered on the
entire ocean side by a deep, shaded verandah which looks out to
stunning down-island views and catches cool trade winds; this
porch is the heart of the house, where you can relax and enjoy
outdoor living and alfresco dining with inspiring views. A
loggia on the opposite side of the main pavilion overlooks the
enclosed courtyard, majestic palm trees, a soothing fountain,
and the villa's large oval pool, which is surrounded by a stone
sun terrace and accented with a polished basalt sculpture by a
Seattle artist. Poolside is the large air-conditioned master
bedroom pavilion, featuring a carved four-poster king bed, a
dressing area, a double vanity and tiled bath, all custom
finished with handsome mahogany cabinetry. A third pavilion is a
two-story guest house offering three separate air-conditioned
bedroom/bath suites and a smaller fifth bedroom. A traditional
roofed verandah almost completely encircles this pavilion's
upper level, overlooking views of Magens Bay and the Atlantic
Ocean. The villa showcases custom mahogany shutters, French
doors and windows with transoms illuminated with golden tropical
light, is very well equipped, and is pleasingly furnished with a
stylish and eclectic blend of cushioned wicker, wood pieces and
a collection of original art. Large boulders and luxuriant
tropical gardens provide wonderful privacy between the three
pavilions, and the ocean views are nothing but fabulous.
