Photos and Description of this British Virgin Islands holiday house 5 bedroom, 5 full bathroom, sleeps 10-12

No detail has been spared in the airy two-story Carolina-style home that is Frenchmans Lookout. Originally an infamous pirates' lookout because of its commanding views, its perch above Sir Francis Drake Channel is caressed by constant trade winds. The views are incomparable and have been called 'the best in the Caribbean.' The main level offers an elegantly furnished great room, a gourmet kitchen and grand dining room with banquet table and an air-conditioned queen bed/bath suite. On the upper level are 4 large bedrooms and 4 tiled baths, plus a well-outfitted office. Every room on both levels (including all bathrooms) opens via double mahogany French doors onto the generous wraparound decks, showcasing a captivating parade of sail and power yachts passing by. Just outside is the 50-foot freshwater pool with a shallow cove for children, surrounded by masonry patios and wood decks. Adjoining the pool is a gazebo and gas bbq bordered by lush flower gardens and manicured lawns.
