Exterior

|
|
|
The large yard is enclosed by a stone wall to keep out curious cows and donkeys who enjoy dining on the periwinkles and other plants. The large mural on the end of the house was painted by a former owner, an artist, who also created the splashback in the kitchen.

Great Room
|
|
|
|
The couch converts to a queen size sofa bed and the dining table has leaves on either end to
seat 6 comfortably. The fans and windows, along with the 3-foot
thick walls, usually keep this room cool year round.

Kitchen
|
|
|
|
The tiny kitchen is a marvel of compact, modern convenience. You can stand in
one place and move the laundry from washer to dryer, get a glass of ice from
the refrigerator, rinse out your glass in the sink, and turn on the coffeemaker
or microwave. There are dishes, glasses, silverware, pots, pans and utensils enough
to entertain a crowd if you want, and the gas grill on the patio keeps the heat out
of the kitchen. The unique splashback behind the sink is created from fragments of
antique pottery and beachcombing finds.

Deck/Garage
|
|
|
|
The deck has chaises, chairs and a table so you can eat up here and enjoy the view.
Since it is the highest point in the island, you can truly be on top on the world!

View From Deck
|
|
|
|
Open on four sides, the deck offers views of the sunset (watch for the fabled "green flash" just as the sun slides into the ocean) and sunrise. The western view is of the placid sea, while the eastern one a more rugged coast and rougher waters. The bird sanctuary and tidal flats are great for beachcombing. The deck is also fine for whale watching. Bring binoculars!
