INFINITY

This most impressive hilltop estate offers a grand sense of scale and pure blue vistas of sky, sea and pool. An electronic gate gives privileged access to Infinity's lushly landscaped grounds; the moment you enter, you'll be enchanted with the beautifully-designed floor plan and its inviting interiors, elegant and superbly equipped but ultimately comfortable and relaxing. The two-story main pavilion houses the living area, set with plump sofas and chairs and a large-screen TV; Infinity's floor plan flows effortlessly into the gourmet kitchen and continues on to the villa's scenic dining area. Screened pocket doors (all equipped with electronic roll-down shutters) lead out to Infinity's deep covered and shaded verandahs which border the large pool. Far below like a postcard lies our picturesque harbor and the red-roofed town of Charlotte Amalie. The custom-designed gourmet kitchen boasts handcrafted mahogany cabinetry and a granite island with gas cooktop; nearby is the wet bar with mini-fridge, icemaker, wine fridge, and a glassed china cabinet. Just outside the dining area is the professional stainless steel Viking gas grill. Up a polished mahogany staircase is the spacious master suite with a separate small sitting room outfitted with a twin daybed. The air conditioned and fully-screened master bedroom offers a queen four-poster bed and a trellised balcony just outside which overlooks the pool, gazebo and harbor views; a very large his-and-hers blue and white tiled bath adjoins. Below, one of the largest pools on St. Thomas beckons - it has an infinity edge and is artistically tiled in a mosaic of many shades of blue, dotted with palms, and bordered by a hot tub on one end and a romantic gazebo on the other. Set at a right angle to the pool and sun deck are three air conditioned guest suites, beautifully situated for maximum privacy and accented by decorative pergolas and gardens. One private pavilion houses a queen four-poster bed and its own covered porch and bath. The second guest pavilion offers two air conditioned bedroom/bath suites with a connecting door. Infinity is truly in a realm of its own, beautifully designed and executed with a refined touch, and offering many delightful and luxurious details. Original Caribbean art and large sculptures from Zimbabwe provide added flourishes to the overall ambience of this superlative residence, but you'll find this architectural showplace extremely comfortable and welcoming throughout. Five stars!
