Exclusive Listing with St Lucia Homes

Two Palms. A Cozy Cottage retreat in the Centre of Rodney Bay.

Yes, the beach and supermarkets and restaurants are only five minutes’ walk away, but relaxing in the garden at the back of this single storey cottage you would think you were in the middle of the countryside!

So, let’s start with this beautiful oasis at the back of this home. With an extended covered patio area there is room for dining, for an extra outdoor lounge or for relaxing on a sunbed. At night time the assortment of lights in the trees, gives the peaceful retreat at this home a beautiful setting to entertain friends with a glass of wine over dinner.

The garden has an unusual Julie mango tree, with an abundance of fruit in season. The Avocado tree has been known to have three hundred large creamy avocados in one season. Plus a lime tree, a sugar apple tree, a cherry tree… you get the picture!

The garden is also fully fenced for pets, There is space to install a pool… but would you need it with the beach and hotel pools on your doorstep?

The total land area is 16800 square feet and with land prices in Rodney bay at 150 ecd and rising, a square foot, this is a wise investment on land price alone. Water supply from the main is never a problem but there is a 3,000 gallon tank reserve for WASCO water and a rainwater tank for the garden usage.

The Cottage itself is entered from one of the roads near to the Royal Hotel in Rodney Bay. (Royal Spa and Gym and pool usage available to local residents for a small monthly fee!) There is a small front garden with driveway parking and a garage, which could be very easily converted to a third bedroom.

A covered conservatory fronts the whole of the cottage. The lounge and dining area dining area isn’t really needed, as eating on the back patio is much more enjoyable!) are open plan. This leads to a small kitchen which could easily be extended, at minimal cost.

Adjoining the kitchen is an extra room which could be used as an office or a breakfast nook extension to the kitchen. There are two bedrooms and two bathrooms. The master bedroom is ensuite, with bathtub and shower. The present owner has loved living here for a number of years and is reluctantly selling, and looking for a buyer who wants a retirement or vacation home in Rodney Bay… but who isn’t interested in a gated development or a modern condo with monthly fees, or no pets allowed.

A few changes may need to be made to suit a new owner’s taste, but no major work needed. The roof does need replacing with a new Caribbean Metal roof, but the owner already has the estimate for this and is willing to ensure this work is done prior to a sale (or allow for it in the price).

This property is also all about location, and land prices in Rodney Bay are certainly not reducing! 16800 square feet of Rodney Bay land with no house on would be priced at between $630,000 usd and $940,000 usd. So Twin Palms, as well as being an unusual Rodney Bay retirement cottage retreat, is priced to sell at $690,000usd.

A local bank mortgage should not be problem on this property. For foreign investors monthly loan repayability will need to be shown from outside St Lucia. St Lucia Homes team can help with arranging a mortgage.
