Todds Great House, St. John, Barbados

Historic Plantation-Style Great House for Sale on 11.5 Acres

Todds Great House is a rare and distinguished opportunity to purchase one of Barbados’s finest historic plantation-style homes. Set in the peaceful parish of St. John, just off Four Cross Roads, this impressive coral stone estate offers the grace, scale, and character of a traditional Barbadian Great House, beautifully paired with modern upgrades and expansive country surroundings. For buyers searching for a historic home for sale in Barbados, a plantation house in Barbados, or a private countryside estate with heritage charm, Todds Great House stands out as a truly special offering.

The property comprises two parcels of land totaling approximately 11.5 acres, creating a substantial estate with exceptional privacy, mature grounds, outbuildings, and lifestyle potential. Parcel A, measuring approximately 3.5 acres, is home to the main Great House — a solidly built, two-storey, coral stone residence featuring six air-conditioned bedrooms, spacious reception areas, high ceilings, elegant proportions, and the timeless architectural appeal associated with Barbados’s plantation-era homes. The home reflects the grandeur of a bygone era, while also offering the comfort and functionality expected by today’s discerning buyer.

The Great House has been extensively refurbished and upgraded in recent years, with thoughtful improvements carried out to restore the property to its former glory. The works included replacing wooden sections of the home, redecorating walls, rewiring the electrical systems, replacing sanitary and plumbing fittings, and fully refurbishing the kitchen. An old garage was also converted into a self-contained two-bedroom apartment, creating excellent flexibility for guests, extended family, staff accommodation, or potential rental use. The basement area is also air-conditioned, further increasing the usability of the home.

Outdoor living is a major feature of Todds Great House. The property includes a large swimming pool, an expansive entertainment deck, a multi-car garage, a nursery wing, and additional outbuildings. Residents also benefit from access to the adjoining tennis court, making the estate ideal for relaxed country living, entertaining, wellness retreats, or a family compound. The overall setting is private, elegant, and authentically Barbadian, offering a lifestyle that is increasingly difficult to find.

Parcel B, measuring approximately 8 acres, further enhances the estate’s appeal. This parcel includes the manager’s house, a barn, workshop, stable block, horse paddock, and the tennis court. The land is relatively flat, with no anticipated drainage concerns, and presents excellent potential for equestrian use, agricultural hobbies, staff housing, further restoration, or estate expansion. The manager’s house is a two-storey rubble and coral stone structure which is currently in need of substantial upgrading and modernization. The barn, workshop, and stables are one-storey rubble wall structures with galvanised roofs and also require repair, offering an incoming purchaser the opportunity to restore, repurpose, or reimagine these traditional estate buildings.

Todds Great House should appeal strongly to sophisticated buyers seeking an authentic plantation home in Barbados, a historic coral stone residence, or an elegant country estate with room to grow. Whether envisioned as a private family residence, a heritage retreat, an equestrian estate, a boutique hospitality concept, or a legacy property, this is a home with presence, history, and remarkable potential.

For those looking to buy a historic home in Barbados, purchase a plantation-style estate, or invest in a character-filled Great House surrounded by acreage, Todds Great House offers a rare blend of heritage, privacy, scale, and lifestyle appeal.
