Property Information
This magnificent new villa named Giselle is perched on a gentle hillside overlooking Plum Bay and the Anguillan Channel where the large cruise ships float by. Built in 2002, Giselle is located in Terres Basses, one of the few gated communities in the Caribbean featuring 2 1/2 acre home sites. The community is gated as is the villa property.
Giselle has four master bedrooms all with bathrooms enb suite and all the same size (there is no disputing as to who gets the biggest or smallest bedroom or the one with the best view. All four of these bedrooms as well as the kitchen, dining room and lounge have a spectacular 180 degree view of the sea. There is a fifth bedroom on another level.
As you enter your view is across a wonderfully furnished lounge, through a 30 foot open doorway, across a sheltered veranda, a hot tub and a heated swimming pool. That’s right, heated, one of the very few on the island; you might need it if the temperature at night dips into the low 70’s. And the pool is large enough for some exercise if you are so inclined or simply lounge by it and drink in the view.
The kitchen opens up to the outside. The dining room is outside under roof. There is a large television outside and plenty of space so everyone can go off for his or her own peace and quiet or gather in one of the lounges or at the kitchen counter for conversation. The joy of villas over hotels is the space they provide over and above your bedroom. However luxurious a hotel lobby may be it will still be thronged with strangers and as you get ready for a swim you might not want to be viewed by strangers. It is perfectly possible for a group of friends, family or acquaintances to live virtually separate existences or to enjoy times together; you set the program.
The bedrooms are air conditioned or you can enjoy the breeze. It seems there is always just enough breeze up here - one of the enormous advantages of being on a rolling hillside. Each bedroom/bath suite is like a separate cottage connected with a common roof and veranda opening onto the pool and the terrace. The en-suite deluxe bathrooms also have walk-in closets.
This wonderful vacation retreat also offers a 5th self contained bedroom, perfect for a nanny or staff ‘travelling with’ or teenagers looking for a shade of independence.
The magic is sealed as the sun romantically sinks beyond the horizon after another perfect day, illuminated by the colorful fibre-optic highlights in the pool and spa.
