Description

This is a highly unusual opportunity to acquire an idyllic parcel of beachfront property adjacent to a stunning anchorage in the British Virgin Islands, with potential for residential and commercial development.

.

Cliff Cottage and Beach Cottage

The property was first developed in the 1950s with a simple 2-bedroom cottage on the hillside above the beach and became a much-loved family retreat.  Although now  in need of restoration, Cliff Cottage occupies a beautiful site overlooking Manchioneel Bay.  The house is approached by a trail from the beach. The private trail continues above Cliff Cottage to a lookout that provides panoramic views of the Virgin Islands.  A utility and dinghy storage building on the beach, the Beach Cottage, was added to the property in the late 1980s.

.

Title

The legal description of the property is Parcel 2, Block 4033B, Southern Cays Registration Section.  Title is freehold with a seabed licence for the dock.

.

Development Potential

In all, the property encompasses 2.25 acres.  It has over 500 feet of white sand beach frontage to Manchioneel Bay where there is lovely snorkeling amongst the corals near the shoreline.  The property has its own private dock, measuring approximately 110 feet x 8 feet.  It has potential for both residential and commercial development.

.

Cooper Island

Manchioneel Bay is well known to all yacht charterers who visit the British Virgin Islands.  It is often the first or the last overnight anchorage on a sailing trip around the British Virgin Islands and is home to the popular Cooper Island Beach Club.  The Club includes a bar, restaurant, rum bar, boutique, dive shop and rooms providing overnight accommodation.
