This house for sale in Anguilla is beautifully decorated and easily claims a spot among the most tasteful properties on island. Located in the little-known Pelican Bay area, just a stone’s throw away from Blowing Point beach, this 3-bedroom waterfront home is part of a small but picturesque nest of residences that form a community of their own.

Key to the appeal of the property is the fact it got comprehensively restored and upgraded in 2019, elevating it from a heart-warming house to a luxury abode. The compound comprises two buildings, with the main house featuring a spacious master suite and a lush guest bedroom with its own bathroom, as well as a gorgeous open-plan kitchen and great room with dining area, rendered even airier by wooden French doors and the light cotton curtains flowing in the wind.

Exquisite details enhance the understated charm of the property, from the rustic touch afforded by Saltillo clay tiles throughout the property and echoed by the visible wooden beams of the extra tall ceilings to the impressively equipped centre island in the kitchen, not to mention the white marble countertop and backsplash in what is, quite simply, the perfect setting to show off your cooking skills.

The outdoor sitting room, part of the 2019 expansion, faces west and is protected by a further set of curtains to shield you from the late afternoon sun. However, the most meaningful addition from the renovation might well be the south-facing salt chlorinated pool with the clay-tile pool deck all around it and the meticulously landscaped tropical garden, irrigation system and all.

A separate building boasts a practical standalone apartment with its own bathroom and panoramic balconies in the upper level, as well as a garage and independent laundry room on the ground floor.

Additional features include individual split air conditioning units in the bedrooms and in the great room as well as a propane generator with capability to serve the whole house. The electrical system was updated in 2019. With the exception of some personal items and a selection of artworks, the entire furnishings are included in the sale. Asking price: US$1,500,000.
