WATERFRONT “Presidio del Marâ” is sited on the point of Peter Bay, a gated enclave within the Virgin Islands National Park. Its commanding views encompass the adjacent white sand beach, (accessed from this gated estate by a paved pathway), Cinnamon, Maho and Francis Bays to the east and the British Virgin Islands across the water to the north. A masterpiece of understated sophistication this 6 bedroom stone “Fortress of the Sea” on 1.63 acres, is surrounded by 645 of natural shoreline overlooking pristine coral reefs, with extraordinary privacy and unobstructable views. This one of a kind property combines refined old world elegance with the latest in modern technology and Caribbean luxury.

The main residence features craftsmanship on a grand scale in the octagonal entry foyer. To the right is the East Verandah– perfect for outdoor lounging and dining, a comfortable great room with breakfast nook and impressive gourmet chefs kitchen, formal dining room and butlers pantry, an elegant powder room and leeward barbeque court. On the lower level are a spa and grand tiled pool with swim in grottos, a covered poolside bar, an exercise gym, and a private guest suite. In adjacent buildings are two additional guest suites and there is a fully enclosed, 4 car garage plus a trellis covered carport off the parking court.

The west wing of the main residence houses the airy North verandah with pool table and fireplace, a comfortable club room, an executive office, and the elegant master suite which is detailed to perfection. An arched stone bridge and steps lead up to another guest suite and a separate guest house with its own sitting area, kitchen,
bedroom suite, and a lower level office. The “Presidio Parapet” is a roof top sun deck which overlooks the entire stone walled compound with
unparalleled views. This property is like no other and is the Caribbean estate to which all others will aspire.
