Fond memories remain long after viewing this charming caribbean villa. Folie a Deux boasts dramatic views of Brewer’s Bay with its two beaches and nightly displays glorious sunsets that can simply take your breath away. “Dancing for Two” lingers in your thoughts as the setting sun takes its final bow and dips over the horizon showcasing both Jost van Dyke and St Thomas in the distance.
Island visitors are often enchanted by its well-planned design, perfect for either quiet relaxation or entertaining. This spacious 3 bedroom, 3 bathroom restful getaway, complemented with lush gardens and quiet location is only a 10 or 20 minute drive to shops, restaurants, seaports and the International Beef Island Airport.
Folio a Deux rests on .77 of an acre and boasts its short walk to the secluded north eastern section of Brewers Bay Beach (where a tumble of shoreside rocks conveniently separates this secret beach from the primary Brewers Bay beach).
The main house dwelling consists of a grand 30’ x 19’ foot Great Room complete with entertaining kitchen designed by two renowned chefs. It includes an oversized kitchen island, a pantry, a broom closet, and hidden spaces for countertop wares neatly tucked away behind roll down kitchen cabinetry. The adjoining living area boasts a 15 ft high vaulted ceiling with several ceiling fans and six 8 foot high double French doors which grant access and picture perfect views to either a covered dining and lounging garden or an outdoor veranda overlooking the serene waters of Brewer’s Bay. The veranda is framed with Caribbean accents of decorative gingerbread trim, enhanced by the aroma of fragrant frangipani and hibiscus blossoms. A gracefully curved swimming pool with extended wooden decks and garden terraces offer relaxing sunbathing with lounge chairs nested behind the mature gardens and shaded by tall palms and overhanging tree foliage.
With the French doors opened, the main house extends to incorporate both the seaside facing shaded veranda and the courtyard garden patio which flow together to create a large entertainment pavilion, perfect for intimate indoor/outdoor dining, quiet afternoon teas, celebratory family dinners, large garden parties and/or casual neighborhood get-togethers.
The foundations and structures have been designed and constructed to last a lifetime and are designed to meet both BVI and Miami Dade Hurricane building codes, using reinforced steel, concrete and heavy beamed cathedral styled ceilings of pressure treated pine beams bolted and secured into the supporting ring beams and foundational columns.
Similarly constructed are the three additional air-conditioned bedroom pods, each with spacious king-sized bedroom floor plans while also offering en-suite full bathrooms and extra deep walk-in wardrobes.
Below the southern most master bedroom is a spacious storeroom/laundry room which could be converted to a 4th bedroom, if needed. The first guest bedroom located closest the to the kitchen/living room structure is presently used as a 2-person office with an extended painting studio or arts and crafts area.
The adjoining walkways are finished with native stone walls and imported Saltillo Mexican clay tiles, which connect each bungalow back to the covered courtyard, complete with both outdoor lounging and dining areas surrounded by a canopy of Petra vines, hanging orchids and night blooming jasmine.
This part of Tortola has only a scattering of a few nearby family homes, formed within a small covenanted private estate, and bounded by the protected waters of Brewer’s Bay below and Anderson Point National Park, which also provides access to a government boat ramp and trailer storage area.
Folie a Deux is being sold with most of its current furnishings. The interior decor is a testament to its well-designed sophisticated Caribbean style. Surrounded by mature tropical fruit trees and fragrant gardens, Folie a Deux will cast a spell on any who wander into her charming embrace.
