About this property
Quiet, private nature retreat with pool and ocean views.
Large home on 11 acres surrounded by nature with a pool and ocean views. Need to get away from it all but want the comforts of home? Relax on the deck, cool off in the pool, enjoy the sounds of birds from either of 2 screened in porches, or relax in the airconditioned comfort of the living areas. Rooms are arranged on two floors with 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms upstairs and one bedroom and bath on the ground floor. Birdwatchers will see all of Cayman's woodland birds and seasonal migrants at home in the forest of native trees and plants. The wetlands below attract wading birds and local and seasonal ducks. Opportunities for exploring abound or just enjoy the pace of life in this peaceful village. A 3 minute walk and you are on the North Coast beach with superb snorkeling, fishing and shelling. A short drive away are restaurants, stores, watersports and natural attractions including caves and the botanic park. "A perfect naturalist’s hideaway unique to Grand Cayman This spacious house, owned by naturalist and photographer Frank Roulstone, sits on a forested hilltop on Grand Cayman’s Northeast coast overlooking the Caribbean Sea. The property is primary forest on karst limestone with many endemic plant species and other rare regional plants including West Indian Cedar, Ironwood and the Wild Banana orchid. The galleries around the home are one of the best places on Grand Cayman to identify and photograph the 13 endemic species of land birds including parrots, woodpeckers, vireos, and bullfinches as well as migrants from August to May with 60 species recorded. Across from the property are beaches with excellent snorkeling and seasonal nesting sites for 3 species of sea turtles. I cannot recommend this site more, it is spectacular. -Patricia A. Bradley, author of “A Photographic Guide to the Birds of the Cayman Islands” and co-author of “A Photographic Guide to the Birds of Cuba” and “An Inventory of Breeding Seabirds of the Caribbean”. Mrs. Bradley has authored several field guides and natural history books, and a British Ornithologists’ Union checklist. She is a founding and Life member of the Cayman Islands National Trust, chairing and serving on its Environmental Advisory Committee, and she has served many years on the Cayman Government’s National Conservation Council."
