Property description

Situated amid 3.75 acres on exclusive Paradise Island in The Bahamas, this immaculately maintained, turn key home truly defines luxury living at its finest. With 1, 750 feet of water frontage on both the north and south sides, and a white powdery sand beach on the north side, it is an oceanfront paradise. The use of open floor plans, wrap around patios, high tray ceilings, accents of magnificent antiques, native flora and hundreds of palm trees create a pronounced Bahamian character throughout the estate. Residents will enjoy the self-sufficiency afforded by such amenities as two standby generators, the standby rainwater tanks that hold up to 360, 000 gallons, stainless-steel electric shutters, a standby reverse osmosis plant, a new breakwater and a strong seawall. The property comprises an east guest cottage, a central main house, service buildings, a west guest cottage and The Gunpowder Room. The interiors and patios were decorated and furnished by Robert Kime, the well-known English designer. Central main house: With wrap around patios, a living room, and dining room, the ground floor of the main house presents a wonderful venue for entertaining. A fully equipped gourmet kitchen features a butler's service area, coffeebar, walk-in freezer, separate pantry for service ware, wine cooler, service hall, and executive chef full-service equipment. On the second floor is the master suite, which boasts his and her bathrooms and closets, a kitchenette, and balcony with spectacular views of the ocean and Atlantis Resort. This grand home offers more than 6, 000 square feet of covered space. Between the main house and the guest cottage is a beautiful 60- by 30-foot heated swimming pool. The accents surrounding the pool such as imposing antique olive jars from Spain, assorted planters, and antique stone and wrought-iron benches create a relaxing and private haven, which exudes luxury. An elegant pool pavilion on the north side conveniently provides guests with a bathroom, changing room, and kitchenette. East guest cottage: The spacious guest cottage, finished with travertine tiles and elegant fixtures, provides two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a living room and outdoor patio areas. Breathtaking views can be enjoyed from both the north and south patios. West guest cottage: This lovely two-story level cottage features a beautiful deck/patio area, second-floor guest living area with full kitchen, estate offices and executive staff quarters. The executive staff quarters comprises three bedrooms and is adjacent to the executive offices with its private deck/patio area. The estate offices have their own separate walkway and entrance for privacy. Service buildings/staff quarters: Self-contained with its own private patio and service entrance/dock, the service buildings include laundry facilities, a staff dining room, butler's quarters, a seaman's house, night watchman's quarters, numerous storage sheds, and plant houses. The gunpowder room: One of the estate's most unique features, this structure was originally built by the British in 1826 on the harbour side to store supplies of gunpowder. Now fully restored and provided with a full-scale kitchen, it is used for guest entertainment, and it features its own dock with slips for 12 boats. Dockage: Other important elements of the property are three docks and a 45-foot-wide cement access ramp to enable heavy trucks and equipment to be barged in from the mainland when necessary. Helipad: A large flat area of open ground, which can be used as a helipad, is near the West Guest Cottage. Featured in the October 2001 issue of Architectural Digest, this estate presents impeccable quality and breathtaking elements, making it a truly unique place to call home.
