Located just 5 minutes from the glorious West Coast beaches on over 10 acres of grounds with established gardens and mature mahogany trees is Taitts Plantation - an exceptional and distinctive plantation house which has been lovingly and tastefully restored to its former glory taking you back to the charm an elegance of old time Barbados, evidence of which has almost disappeared from our shores.
As soon as you turn into the drive, which is almost completely enclosed by ancient mahogany trees which frame the house in the distance you can't help but notice the attractive proportions of this wonderful home which commands a elevated position offering panoramic views over the countryside and the Caribbean sea beyond.
The horizon swimming pool and sunbathing deck have been cleverly situated away from the house and there is also a cottage and coral stone ruin which could easily be renovated into another dwelling or into a garage or out house.
The covered terrace runs along the entire front of the property and captures the westerly breeze providing an ideal spot to watch the sun set in the distance, sleep after a sumptuous lunch prepared by the house keeper or simply enjoy a good book or magazine.
The front door leads onto the hallway with hardwood paneled stair case which leads you up to the upper floor and the 4 spacious bedrooms with sash windows, shutters and tray ceilings. There are 2 bathrooms on the upper level which include showers and cast iron baths, one of which is ensuite to the master bedroom.
The bedrooms as well as the living room include hardwood floors which help add to the enchanting ambiance of this wonderful home.
The lower level includes a comfortable living room which includes 3 grand arches and original inset sash windows with shutters - the living room also opens onto the covered terrace and sitting / dining areas.
Adjacent to the living room is a formal dining room which leads onto the magical and welcoming kitchen which includes flag stone tiles, ornamental antique oven and doors which open onto the cottage garden to the rear of the property or to the parking area to the front
