Description

Quiet and exclusive, Seasage Hill Road in Long Bay runs parallel to the Long Bay Canal at over 60’ of elevation, offering uncompromised views and unparallelled waterfrontage in as natural a setting as one can now find on Providenciales. At 2.44 acres, this one-of-a-kind property slopes from panoramic views abutting the newly paved Seasage Hill Road down to sea level and offers 145’ of canal frontage with 10’ depths along the widest part of the canal. A meandering concrete path driveway, weaves through natural vegetation, cautiously cleared and augmented with fruit trees and carefully selected flowering plants. The beautifully designed 2-bedroom bungalow, designed by one of TCI’s leading architects, was conceived in 2015 as a guest house, with designs for a larger, main house to be built higher up the slope. The landscaping was thoughtfully arranged by one of TCI’s leading environmental scientists incorporating wildlife-friendly flowering plants woven into low maintenance natural vegetation to maximize habitat value for wildlife. The bungalow enjoys unobstructed views to the west where flamingos frequently forage during the day, and stunning sunsets in the evenings light up Juba Sound in brilliant hues of reds, magentas, oranges, and blues. The interior of the bungalow is an open plan with vaulted, open rafter ceilings and an inviting sunken living room area with screened windows on 3 sides, designed to take in the panoramic view. The open nature of the living area ensures cooling breezes throughout but is protected by power rolldown shutters for security and breezy/rainy days. All glass windows in the bungalow are hurricane-rated, and the other windows are louvered, allowing natural cooling breezes and security when open and hurricane protection when closed. The kitchen is well proportioned and appointed with a central island and stainless-steel GE Profile refrigerator and stove. The main bedroom is a calming space with a custom mahogany, four-poster, canopy king bed and custom woodwork. The second bedroom is set up as a dual purpose office with custom built- in desk and shelving and a guest bed. A spacious bathroom boasts a large bathtub for 2, a bidet, and custom cabinetry. The entire bungalow is floored in hand-carved, native limestone. The outer decks, and surrounding mature trees only add to the serene and calming nature of this special property. There are many possibilities for this property whether to live in your own secluded bungalow and build out the main house with existing plans available or look at subdividing the acreage to create an enclave of Villas with canal access. The added benefit to any possibility is the location of the canal that now passes through the newly developed South Bank Resort and Marina only a few minutes by boat to the south. This unique island retreat feels nestled in nature, and far away from the hustle and bustle of Provo, yet it is a mere 7- minute drive to Grace Bay on paved roads.
