Caribbean Home: A Modern Wonder on the West Coast of Barbados

By: Caribbean Journal Staff - February 9, 2014 - 9:51 am

IT DOESN’T look like the traditional home you’d expect to find in Barbados.

But that’s what makes Atelier House in St James so spectacular.

The four-bedroom, 4,330-square-foot villa is a contemporary marvel, with an infinity pool, a large roof terrace and a one half-acre of lush gardens.

All of the lighting is LED, all of the kitchens came in from the United Kingdom and the entire property can withstand hurricane-force winds.

Atelier House, which looks out on the sea, is listed by West Coast Villas Sotheby’s International Realty for $4.75 million.

Why not take a permanent vacation to Barbados?
