Overview
Cassava, Bequia, is a refined hillside estate positioned approximately 150–200 yards from the white sands of Lower Bay Beach. Designed by a renowned Mustique architect, the property serves as a turnkey investment with a verified track record in the luxury holiday rental market. It offers a rare combination of elevated privacy and direct pedestrian access to the shoreline via a private landscaped garden path.
Property Details
The villa features a four-bedroom, four-bathroom layout configured for maximum privacy and flexibility. The Primary Suite occupies the main living level, containing a timber-framed super king bed, a spa-style bathroom with a sunken bathtub, and a private balcony overlooking the bay. Two Lower-Level Guest Suites, accessed via a spiral stone staircase, feature private terraces and versatile bedding configurations (twin or king-size). A Fourth En-Suite Bedroom is located on the upper level, accessed through a sheltered central courtyard. Interior finishes include wooden flooring, white-and-steel professional kitchen surfaces, and 14-foot sliding doors that integrate the living areas with a full-width coral stone terrace.
Land and Water
The estate encompasses approximately 41,000 square feet (0.94 acres) of hillside terrain. [Verify: Source 1.2 cites 0.79 acres for similar hillside lots; listing data indicates 41,000 sq. ft.]. The property includes an adjoining parcel of land available by separate negotiation, which secures the private path to the Lower Bay shoreline. Maritime assets include a newly installed private swimming pool with a shaded deck area. The terrain is a gentle hillside designed to capture cooling trade winds and panoramic western sea views.
Access and Utilities
Primary access is via a hillside road with on-site parking for up to four vehicles. The property is five minutes by car from the service hub of Port Elizabeth. Confirmed utility systems include grid electricity, air-conditioning in all bedrooms, ceiling fans throughout, and high-speed fiber-optic Wi-Fi. Water is managed via an on-site cistern system, and a professional-grade kitchen annex features a barbecue and outdoor catering facilities.
Lifestyle and Value
Cassava is positioned as a high-yield rental asset or a primary private estate. The "Mustique-inspired" architecture and proximity to Lower Bay and Princess Margaret Beach provide significant land-banking value in a prime Bequia sub-market. The addition of the fourth bedroom and private pool infrastructure ensures the property meets modern luxury requirements for immediate occupation or commercial operation.
