The brief

The reason to consider it.

True West Indian architecture is getting harder to find on St. Croix. This one in Estate Solitude has it: Over 5600 total square feet on 1.29 acres this home features Danish brick, Saltillo tile, custom kitchen, large great room, vaulted ceilings with tongue-and-groove wood, custom mahogany screen doors, copper gutters and sinks — and direct Buck Island views from nearly every room. Four bedrooms, three baths- 2 with outdoor showers, a flex room, and a pool with a large Travertine patio and covered dining area, outdoor shower poolside, solar, concrete driveway, all sitting high in the hills with underground power and no telephone poles blocking the sight lines.

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
