Nominated for the prestigious WAN (World Architecture News Awards) for its revolutionary design, this is a remarkable property which is now on the market and offering an excellent opportunity to purchase a true slice of paradise on this special island. With concept design by British-based architect Jake Edgley, who trained with internationally renowned Sir Norman Foster, this outstanding property has a spacious, relaxing and contemporary atmosphere. Offering 7 unique bedrooms within 10,000 square feet of internal living space, featuring high quality finishes and stylish furnishings throughout. Any owner of this impressive hillside property is sure to enjoy a level of privacy and exclusivity with simply outstanding views unparalleled on Bequia.

Living Spaces with Panoramic Views
Based on the Moorish principle of using water as a central feature, the main focal point of the entire house is the central infinity pool, providing unparalleled views of the ocean and Grenadine island chain beyond. Most of the rooms lead directly off the elegant pool, merging the interior living space with the stunning landscape, making this property spacious, cool and airy, yet still surprisingly intimate. Looking south from a height of 600 feet down over the jewel-like Southern Grenadines, the house has truly breathtaking panoramic views all around. The wooden sundeck, located at treetop level just below the pool, is ideal for enjoying those fantastic views. The living spaces grouped around the central pool emulates high end house design in Morocco – where careful alignment to the prevailing breezes, plenty of shade and a pool become very much part of the house – providing wonderfully cool living spaces and an elegant atmosphere throughout the day.

2 self contained apartments complete the property and offer excellent flexibility in terms of additional guests and / or staff quarters or owner space if the new owner chooses to rent the property. Magnificent Interior Living, Games, Bedrooms, Guest Wing, Media, Terrace, and self contained flat (sleeps 12, plus housekeeper flat for 2)
There are 5 large bedrooms in the main house, plus one in the separate self-contained Guest Wing which has it’s own separate kitchen, balcony and terrace. All the bedrooms except one have their own ensuite bathrooms with walk in shower. Most of the rooms have pleasing pitched roofs which gives a spacious airy feel throughout.

Exquisite Details
The grand louvered doors and windows are all made from the extraordinarily durable and hard to source Brazilian ‘Ipe’ wood. All the showers are pebble lined, the built in seating, stairs and shelves have been carefully rounded off to soften the impact of such bold architectural lines.

The house is designed to be low maintenance and energy efficient. From the coloured render on the outer walls and polished concrete floors negating any need for repainting, to the long lasting Amazonian hard wood used.

Water tanks are located at the base of the five towers with a total fresh water capacity of 130,000 gallons (all collected via the roof during rainy season so is free and plentiful for all the needs of the house & pool).
