"Place of the Breeze"
Classic West Indian colonial "skirt & blouse" style house of masonry first floor and wooden second story decorated with traditional fretwork and railings. House is surrounded by lush, mature gardens, interesting rock outcroppings and a sloping site that overlooks a green valley and views out to the sea. Property is totally private, yet very near the plantation inns and restaurants, including Montpelier, Hermitage, and Old Manor. Entrance is through cut-stone pillars and metal gates to a sweeping drive fringed with golden palms to a parking area and terraced wood steps. Garden features a saman tree, petticoat palm, two royal palms, mango trees, and a wealth of Caribbean shrubs and ornamentals.
