The reason to consider it.
A rare walled historic estate with harbor views located in the heart of Christiansted offering a distinctly European, walkable lifestyle, just steps from the boardwalk, dining, galleries, and shops.
Anchored by a five bedroom, four bathroom main residence showcasing classic Danish West Indian architecture, the estate also includes a separate one bedroom, one bathroom 18th-century guest cottage and multiple parcels that offer exceptional flexibility and development potential. Enclosed by tall masonry walls and centered around a lush tropical courtyard and pool, the property provides a high level of privacy and tranquility for a historic offering.
Distinctive features include reclaimed ship timbers used as structural floor joists, ballast-brick staircases, five French doors encircling the living room, a signature Captain’s Watch, a tiled front porch with classic rocking chairs, and an expansive veranda overlooking the harbor. Recently refinished living room floors and split-system air conditioning enhance everyday comfort while preserving the home’s historic character. A poolside tool/workroom with plumbing offers the opportunity to create an additional guest suite. The estate also includes two garages and valuable off-street parking.
