Tortuga Cove

Description

“Tortuga Cove”

Tortuga Cove is a distinctively beautiful and impeccably maintained Mediterranean style villa with spectacular ocean views and serene surroundings. The villa is constructed on a double lot in Belair, which leaves room for expansion.

The upper lot features the entirety of the villa, where the lower lot features a tropical garden. The main house comprises three (3) bedrooms and three and a half (3.5) bathrooms, plus a bonus room on the first floor of the villa which could be used as a fourth bedroom, nursery, library or office.

The first floor Master Bedroom features direct access to the pool deck and wonderful views of Little Bay and Saba. Its en-suite bathroom contains a floating double sink vanity, modern Euro-style toilet and a 1 meter wide walk-in wetroom with rainshower and handheld shower jet. The upper portion of the villa holds two more large bedrooms, both with full en-suite bathrooms, lots of built-in closet space and Juliette balconies offering ocean views.

The property’s grand entrance and architecture is showcased with an impressive ten (10) meter turret complete with spiral marble staircase, as well as distinctive arches, mosaic tiles and a well maintained blue zinc roof.

Tortuga Cove includes a fully equipped one (1) bedroom in-law apartment with private entrance and ocean view porch. A full property renovation in 2013 included DryVit stucco coating of the villa exterior, a new Diamond Brite pool lining, and updates to both villa and apartment kitchen appliances (i.e. stainless French door refrigerator and matching dishwasher in the villa; new refrigerator/freezer in the apartment). Furthermore, the villa is equipped with an expansive underground cistern and Solahart, and every room holds split airco units and ceiling fans. The property also offers a very large oversize garage, a separate outdoor carport, and a dedicated generator room. Locked gated entrances exist on both Kangaroo Road, below the villa, and on Otter Road, above the villa, offering the convenience of pass-thru driving.

Tortuga Cove’s location is central to Philipsburg, the hospital, schools, supermarkets and all major routes (i.e. Link 1, 2, and 3). Belair makes a fantastic family neighborhood that offers a secure and friendly atmosphere for children, pets and parents alike. To add to its allure it’s less than a five minutes walk to Little Bay Beach. Tortuga Cove is the epitome of a Caribbean escape villa, vacation home and/or investment property.
