Hamble House has a unique location within the prestigious Sandy Lane Estate in St. James as the property's eastern boundary adjoins the fabulous Sandy Lane Country Club Golf course providing sweeping views of the golf course greens, fairways as well as benefitting from unobstructed island breeze. There are also good sea views on the west side of the property and particularly from the master bedroom terrace upstairs.
Offering 6 bedrooms in all, 4 in the main house as well as a 2 bedroom attached cottage, the property is in excellent condition and very well maintained. The home was completely renovated in 2006 and the renovations were overseen by Larry Warren Architect Ltd with great attention to detail and finishes that feature pickled pine ceilings and a combination of stone, marble and wooden floors. Hamble House has two private driveways to the property, the main entrance leads to ample parking and the secondary entrance provides direct access to the cottage. The main house entrance leads to an indoor lounge that opens on the east to the wonderful covered terrace with golf course views and on the west to the covered dining terrace and inviting swimming pool and garden. Also on this level you will find the air-conditioned media room, the spacious and well equipped kitchen, staff rooms, store rooms and garage. The master bedroom occupies the entire first floor and includes an office/media room and balconies on both the east and west sides to take full advantage of this wonderful location.
There are 3 en suite guest bedrooms on the ground floor and all open to terraces, either to the swimming pool terrace or the well landscaped gardens. A corridor leads from the main house bedroom wing to the two storey cottage which has a steeply pitched roof. On the ground floor there is a kitchen, open plan dining and living room and a spiral stairway leads up to two bedrooms and one bathroom upstairs.
Guests to Hamble House enjoy the use of the private beach facility at Sandy Lane Beach alongside Sandy Lane Hotel where there are changing rooms, beach chair service as well as a cafe and bar. There are also flood lit tennis courts that Sandy Lane home owners may use as well as the Sandy Lane Golf Club which has three courses – the Old Nine, the 18 hole Country Club and the Green Monkey.
