The brief

The reason to consider it.

Estate Lucky Bottom is a rare piece of history in Cane Bay, St. Croix. This extraordinary 17.88-acre estate features a stately Greathouse with a saltwater pool and sweeping Caribbean Sea views, blending historic preservation with modern island luxury.

The 4-bedroom, 4.5-bath residence, inspired by Danish colonial architecture, showcases Brazilian cherry and travertine floors, a solar power system with backup generator, and fine craftsmanship throughout.

Behind the double gated entry, beautifully landscaped grounds with fruit trees unfold across rolling hills, surrounding rare 1820 sugar-mill ruins with an intact animal slue. The grounds are abundant with mature specimen trees—mahogany, baobab, kapok, coconut palms, and fruiting varieties like guavaberry, banana, and Barbados cherry—creating a lush tropical landscape.

The entire property is comprised of six separate parcels, offering complete control over privacy, access, and views across the estate. Ideally located near Cane Bay’s beaches, diving, and dining, Estate Lucky Bottom offers timeless history, privacy, and sustainable island elegance.

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
