Located between the villages of Calibishie and Woodford Hill on the northeast coast of Dominica, this unique master piece was designed by Architect Lyn Giraud (R I B A, B Arch Dip Bristol), who was trained in the UK but has worked for many years in Dominica. Meanwhile, the builder is Stephen Whitcher who has over 40 years experience in New Zealand, Canada, and Dominica – where he has lived and worked for 12 years. Many of the finest homes around Calibishie are witness to his quality building.
The site which is within a 1 1/2 mile radius of Calibishie, a favourite area of visitors and expats, offering a spectacular coastline which includes the island’s best golden beaches, as well as easy access to the main airport at Melville Hall. You can experience palm-fringed beaches, freshwater rivers with secluded bathing pools, tumbling waterfalls and the soft wonder of the rain forest with its exotic birds and lush vegetation, all within a few miles of the house and without crowds!
DESIGN:
The house which sits on 7,939 square feet of relatively steep land has been designed to make the most of its superb position. Despite being on a steep site, it has drive-on access close to the front door. The main level provides a roomy, airy living/dining/ kitchen room opening onto a huge 32 x 10 foot verandah. The spacious master bedroom shares the superb view and access to the verandah, as well as having an ensuite shower & toilet. The second bedroom also offers an ensuite shower & toilet, with a second access from the living room.
The design allows for a third, loft bedroom if required. Moreover, due to the steepness of the site, there is ample scope to create additional rooms, or even an independent apartment, below the main house level. Within view of a small hotel which has never opened for business, the site is accessible to electricity, water, telephone, cable television and internet. The public road is roughly 100 feet away.
