Description
The Estate which dates to the 18th century and the property built sometime in the 1700s were of a dual role.
- To process the sugar cane into sugar. A few items that were used to process the sugar cane are still on the property to date.
- It served as the residential home of the British owners.
In possession is a July 1796 listing of 132 names of persons who lived and worked on the property.
The original owner was related to the British Brand’s owners, Dewar’s Scotch Whisky. Over the years, the property had several owners, Mrs. Gloria Chaderton, the last owner and residents such as the local Catholic Church’s nuns.
This historic gem sits on just about 2 acres of landscaped perfection in Dewar’s bordering Beacon Heights Development with spectacular views of the Caribbean Sea, the South East Peninsular, and the sister-island – Nevis.
It embodies years of historic structures and elements, established well in concert with an abundance of fruit trees including star apple, and mango, to name a few. It can be used for either commercial or residential purposes. Also, the grounds were lovingly restored with no expense spared by the current owners.
A secluded environment, yet just minutes away from nearby supermarkets, the cinema and the 24-hour gas station, and the heart of Basseterre, indeed affords one of the best of both worlds.
