This presents an incredible development opportunity for the discerning investor looking to create the quintessential Caribbean retreat. Set on the West Coast of Barbados with over 60 ft. of beach frontage and a generous setback from the main road, Weston is the ideal location for a stunning villa.
The property can readily accommodate spacious outdoor living areas and gardens, providing an ideal setting for seaside relaxing and entertaining.
The white sandy beach provides an ideal setting for sunbathing; the tranquil Caribbean waters provide safe swimming for adults and children alike. Weston boasts one of the best addresses on the island's West coast, neighbouring some of the most exclusive villas in Barbados such as Mango Bay, Cove Spring, The Dream and Gardenia.
Weston is also within close proximity to an impressive range of amenities. Nearby Holetown offers a wide selection of duty-free and boutique shops, epicurean dining and vibrant nightlife. Speightstown, a quieter town in the North of the island, maintains the charming architectural features of the past; with cosy beach-front cafes, art galleries and casual bars, it provides a relaxed atmosphere enjoyed by visitors and locals alike.
Both towns have grocery shops, banks and post offices.
For sports enthusiasts, Weston is within easy driving distance of some of the island's finest sporting amenities, including world-class golfing at Sandy Lane, Royal Westmoreland and Apes Hill and tennis at Sugar Hill, a David Lloyd Development. Some of the west coast's top beaches are also readily accessible, but having direct access to the white sandy beach and turquoise Caribbean Sea just in front of Weston will be difficult to beat.
