St James, Carlton, Barbados

A stunning contemporary 5-bedroom, 7-bathroom villa set on more than half an acre of grounds, ideally located on the West 'Platinum' Coast of Barbados.

Carlton View is a quiet, upmarket family area, perfectly positioned to enjoy the best of the West Coast restaurants, bars, golf courses and beaches.

Elevated and West-facing, the villa has been designed to maximise the spectacular panoramic sea views, and the constant fresh breeze and is just a short walk from the beach.

Designed by a British Architectural Design team, with experience in building high-end properties in the UK, and also living in Barbados, the home's style ideally combines luxury European and outdoor Caribbean lifestyles.

With an elegant style and luxury in mind, and finished to a high specification, the spacious, 6,270 sq. ft (583 sq. m.) undercover accommodation, with a practical layout, makes this villa ideal as both a fabulous family home and a rental property aimed at a group of friends or a large family.

The villa is surrounded by landscaped raised gardens ensuring privacy, large terraces which are ideal for entertaining, and a 46-ft pool.

The driveway, through electric gates, has ample parking and leads to a garage and the stylish main entrance. From here, the hallway leads through to the vast open plan indoor-outdoor living space which instantly displays amazing ocean views, through large sliding doors and onto the deep terrace where there are varied options for relaxing and dining, perfectly positioned to enjoy the stunning view over the pool and gardens to the ocean and the beautiful Bajan sunset.

Along with the main kitchen, there is also a chefs' kitchen and an outdoor kitchen with a BBQ. On this floor, there is a bedroom suite with a private terrace which along with the luxury bathroom share a fabulous sea view. There is also a media room, 2 powder rooms, an office and a utility room. The lower floor has 4 bedroom suites, each having a bathroom and a dressing area. Each room opens out through sliding doors onto a large covered terrace, the pool deck and the secluded gardens. Two of these suites each also have their own private terrace opening out from the bedroom and the bathroom, allowing complete privacy. All 5 bedrooms can be set up as King size (UK Super King), with 2 rooms having the option of twin beds.

The main garden to the front is surrounded by lush plants and trees, there is also a side lawn of 18m x 10m set out as a games area for volleyball, badminton etc. A refreshing 'wet' sunken seating area next to the pool adds another relaxation area. With consideration given to the environment, ventilation has been achieved throughout using aluminum framed adjustable louvre windows and vents, planned to reduce the need for air-conditioning. 4 store rooms help make this a practical home, and also an ideal holiday rental property.
