Welcome to “Sugar Ridge”, a spacious 5-bedroom home of minimalist design located on a serene ridge with one of the most breathtaking panoramic sea views of the west coast, no more than 10 minutes away from any amenities desired or required.
This unique, much-loved family home was custom designed and built in 2010 and has been thoroughly enjoyed by the owners ever since. The exclusive location of Bakers Plantation offers a level of privacy beyond that of your traditional neighbourhood or gated community without burdensome communal fees, representing a significant saving to any potential buyer.
Sugar Ridge is designed as an eco-friendly home strategically positioned to take advantage of the constant and cooling easterly breezes that flow freely throughout the property. In addition to passive ventilation features, the home includes extraordinarily high ceilings and jalousie shutters throughout. On entering Sugar Ridge, you are immediately struck by the generous space apportioned for the open-plan living and dining area which allows for a seamless flow into other areas of the home and to uninterrupted vistas of blue skies and the shimmering Caribbean sea.
A fully equipped and outfitted kitchen, enclosed kitchen garden and TV/entertainment/media room are situated to the back of the home with 4 substantial bedrooms positioned on either side of the central living space. The 2 master suites both include 8 folding doors which open the entire western wall of each bedroom onto the spacious pool deck area, allowing in as much or as little natural light as desired. Along with ample space for sun loungers and tanning on the pool deck, there is a covered gazebo for outdoor dining, family gatherings, weekend BBQs, sundowners and a few moments escape from the sun.
With “working from home” becoming the norm instead of the exception, Sugar Ridge offers a large loft space perfect for an office. This elevation is open and can be enclosed and air-conditioned if required, or even converted into an additional bedroom. Either way, this space overlooks the pool and provides spectacular west-facing panoramic views from the home!
