This amazing 4-acre property in the hills with an historic stone home was totally restored by its talented owner, who is a builder and designer. With all of the fixtures and finishes carefully chosen, this home is a showplace with a copper, stone and granite kitchen; cypress and cedar wooden interior, and 3.5 fabulous bathrooms, one with an outdoor stone shower. For many years the home of the island's top landscape team, the property is brimming with fantastic palms, fruit trees, and a wide variety of plants. There are three ensuite private bedrooms in the main house, plus a recently added caretaker's apartment. The pool is located behind gated walls surrounded by walls and plantings, reminiscent of an Italian Renaissance garden. There is room for expansion or development with other homes or guest cottages on this totally private, tropical oasis.
