This five-bedroom villa is a historic property that features exquisite design and grounds. Stone foundations are all that remain of the former cannon platform that once protected English Harbour, and the villa is actually built on top of them.

Sitting on more than one acre of private gardens and grounds, it offers an impressive 270-degree view of the beautiful harbour setting. The property itself has been lovingly redone according to the classic Georgian style. Wooden shingle roofs, corner stones, and observation areas will make this a hit with kids of all ages.

The gardens surround the pool terrace, which is framed by a brick surround and features walls of the original structure. Steps up from the pool, you reach the main villa, and here you can enjoy a variety of gazebos that offer you places to dine or lounge and take in those views.

The upper terrace area leads to the equally impressive interiors. A great room features a nautically inspired blue and white palette, but keeps things casual with rattan and wicker pieces that work beautifully with the terrazzo floors. There is a casual living room, dining area and fully-equipped kitchen in the main villa.

The bedrooms are divided between the great house and a guest house. There are three in the main house, and all are king suites with verandahs or balconies and luxurious bathrooms. The guest house is self-contained and features two suites with private baths and garden views.
