5-bedroom house in Walkes Spring, St Thomas, Barbados

Substantial 5-bedroom house for sale in Barbados located in an elevated position in the quiet, green residential area of Walkes Spring, St Thomas. This substantial home offers plenty of space for a family with private landscaped grounds and cooling Atlantic breezes – perfect whether you’re looking for a family home, a multi-generational residence, or a property with income-generating potential. Set on a 0.39 acre (1,576 square meter) landscaped lot, this home offers approximately 3,930 square feet (365 square meters) of floor space including 5 bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms across the main residence and a self-contained apartment. The main house is arranged over approximately one and a half stories and makes good use of the elevated site. Inside, the principal living areas have an open plan layout, with the living room, dining area and kitchen arranged as one connected space. Hardwood floors and fitted timber cabinetry give these rooms a warm, established feel. The living room opens onto a covered rear terrace which extends the main living space outdoors, providing outdoor space protected from the strongest sun and passing showers, with Atlantic breezes moving through the property. The main residence offers 3 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms, including a primary bedroom with a walk-in closet and en suite bathroom which also opens directly onto the rear terrace. A separate guest bedroom has its own en suite, providing useful privacy for visitors or family members. A study and a family room add flexibility to the layout, and either could work as a home office, a quiet sitting room, a children’s space or additional living area. The lower ground floor features a self-contained two-bedroom, one-bathroom apartment with its own private entrance, ideal for extended family or regular guests without taking space away from the main household. The apartment could also provide rental income, depending on the owner’s plans and the necessary permissions. A cobblestone driveway leads up through mature palms and established landscaping to the house, and the grounds include lawns and tropical planting, with plenty of space around the home for privacy and separation from neighboring properties. A carport provides parking for multiple vehicles, and the grounds are secure. The house is of solid reinforced concrete construction and is offered well maintained and move-in ready. Walkes Spring is a largely residential and green area, where mature planting and open space add to the sense of privacy and the elevated position gives the property a different feel from homes closer to the coast. Despite the quieter setting, the house is well connected to some of the island’s main commercial and leisure areas. Warrens is about 10 minutes away, with supermarkets, offices, restaurants, medical services and shops, while Holetown and the West Coast beaches are about 12 minutes away. With its generous living space, separate apartment and large landscaped lot, this home is a compelling option for buyers exploring St Thomas real estate, whether you’re looking for a family home with room for every generation or a residence with rental potential.
