About this 8 - Detached |
A genuine opportunity of a lifetime! The Turks Head Mansion is one of the most important historic buildings in the Turks & Caicos Islands, and is exclusively for sale through ERA Coralie Properties.
This stunning Bermudian style mansion of over 8000 square feet was lovingly restored in 2009 by a team of craftsmen, with great empathy for the period architecture and detail.
The mansion was originally built in 1820 by a Bermudian shipwright, as a private home for the island overseer and has many unique architectural features. Over the years the property has had varied uses, including: The American Consulate for 88 years, Island doctors surgery, the first hotel in the history of the TCI, the first building to have electricity in the TCI; even John Glenn the astronaut stayed at the Turks Head Mansion after friendship 7 splashed down off the coast of Grand Turk.
In recent years the building has been a small boutique style hotel, with a popular bar, large restaurant area, retail area and office, large commercial style kitchen and a beautifully landscaped and secluded courtyard with a stunning hand built gazebo. Twelve feature length movies have been shot at the hotel, or used the hotel as a production base; the current owner is a famous Hollywood movie producer.
The property boasts eight bedrooms, all en suite with AC, and antique furniture, enormous upper level deck with ocean views, a large cellar (reputedly haunted) Upper level balcony, storeroom, laundry and multiple ancillary rooms.
The craftsmen level restoration was extensive from the ground up and encompasses almost 80% of the buildings area, inside and out.
This peerless, three story property would once again make a stunning family home, unparalleled anywhere in the region, or the ultimate property to operate as an income generating luxury Caribbean guesthouse.
