The brief

The reason to consider it.

Rarely does an opportunity like this come to market. This 4.65-acre parcel just outside Cruz Bay offers sweeping south shore views and the kind of flexibility that is becoming increasingly hard to find on St John.

Free from HOA restrictions, this sub-dividable property is a true blank canvas. Whether envisioned as a private family compound, an income-generating mix of short and long term rentals, or subdivided into smaller parcels for much-needed island housing, the possibilities here are wide open.

Surrounded by accessible paved roads and just minutes from Cruz Bay, this is one of the largest and most versatile parcels available on island today.

What people say about US Virgin Islands

Sources agree that the US Virgin Islands is simple to enter for Americans, since it is US territory, but costly to run once there.

  • Concern WAPA electricity is expensive and outages are routine; backup power is treated as standard
  • Concern Insurance is a hard market: higher premiums, large percentage windstorm deductibles, trouble for wood-frame homes; flood is separate
  • Mixed Closings are attorney-led, take longer than on the mainland, and need a USVI-licensed lender; surveys matter on irregular hillside lots
  • Mixed Condo costs are driven by windstorm insurance; check reserves and master policy before buying
