Description

A meticulously restored historic 6-bedroom Great House with a two bedroom cottage in Clifton Plantation, St. John.


This magnificent, meticulously restored historic Great House dates back to 1656.

The six bedroom/six-bathroom home with a two bedroom/two-bathroom cottage is located on almost 4 acres of grounds with mature trees, orchards and lawns.

This Great House comprises a generously proportioned two-storey front entry section, with a beautiful arcaded verandah on three sides and a double staircase to a central pedimented porch, which dates back to the home's origins.

The ground floor features a formal dining room, drawing room, study, and a charming bar area with a bathroom. The oldest part of the house, parts of which are rubble stone, dates back to the 17th century. It has a large kitchen, a laundry room, one bathroom, a powder room, and two small rooms used for changing by the pool.

Beyond the kitchen on the west wing, there is a comfortable sitting / TV room with a fireplace and an office, which opens to an al fresco dining and sitting terrace entertaining and lounging space overlooking the back garden and orchard. The three ground-floor wings open to a gorgeous courtyard with a pool.

Upstairs is the principal bedroom with a dressing room and expansive bathroom, and five other guest bedrooms, four with en suite bathrooms with coral stone showers.

The house offers over 1,271 sq m of living space and is decorated and furnished in keeping with its character and heritage.

The property also benefits from a separate two bedroom/two-bathroom guest cottage and further outbuildings providing a 3-car garage and two storage rooms.

The grounds feature a combination of beautiful mature flowering fruit trees, stately lawns, two entrances, and parking areas. The property was meticulously restored over three years from 2009 and has been used as a family home while hosting tours and events.

There are also opportunities to expand the business by adding additional outbuildings and renovating the garage to create additional bedrooms. This wonderful, historic plantation home is ideal for someone seeking a home of character, charm, and history or someone seeking unique business opportunities that will benefit from tourism concessions.
