Nesfield, St Lucy, Barbados

Flanked by the ridge front of Mount Gilboa to the south, this 220 acre plot flows into lush fields below and includes the buildings of Pickerings Plantation. It abuts Castle to the east, Fairfield to the west and the Daryll Jordan Secondary School to the north.

The property currently has planning permission for change of use from Agriculture to a number
of Use Classes. There is a commercial section, organized along the highway, with the potential of a Town Centre, ideal for the Fairfield area adjacent to the parish Church. This highway continues eastward up to River Bay which is likely to be one of the next undeveloped growth centers for tourism.

The proposed Second Airport has been identified for an area to the north of this corridor on government lands occupied by the Hope Plantation.

The Pickerings Development embraces a balanced mixed use matrix. This comprises provisions
for:

160 low income homes 136 middle income homes.
260 middle to upper income homes
252 two and three bedroom Townhouses
60 Upper Income Homes
513,000 ft.² of Commercial and Shopping Facilities
174,000 ft.² of Industrial Facilities
148,400 ft.² of School & Daycare Facilities
162,000 ft.² Fish Farm & Processing Complex
322,400 ft.² of Sewage Treatment Plant.

The development is planned such that it takes advantage of the main artery to Speightstown
and to which all feeder roads join.

The site, particularly the ridge lots, enjoys a panoramic view of the northern coastline because of its terraced elevations.
