November, 2009 - A private Caribbean oceanfront estate on St. John's famous North Shore (US Virgin Islands) is being marketed internationally by the Dalzell Group of Prudential Realty in Rancho Santa Fe, California. A gallery of images, video and an exclusive promotional packet is available at www.PresidioDelMar.com.

Just steps beyond the garden gate entrance lies unspoiled coral reefs carefully guard a shoreline that offers some of the best snorkeling and scuba diving in the world.
Caribbean Luxury Properties Specialist Jim Dalzell, who has sold ultra high end estates for more than ten years, calls representing Presidio Del Mar an unprecedented milestone.

"Peter Bay is home to some of the most magnificent private villas in the Caribbean," he says. "Presidio Del Mar is unquestionably the crown jewel. It not only occupies a prized private location on St. John's renowned North Shore, but it's completely surrounded by pristine National Park land. This once-in-a-lifetime setting inspired every detail of its design and construction."

Seven years in the making, the artisan-crafted estate is a masterpiece of aged native stone and brick, much of it lavishly inlaid with seashells in traditional St. John style. The St John Real Estate for sale residence has four detached guest suites totaling approximately 12,000 square feet enclosed. There are also some 6,000 square feet of covered outdoor living space, creating a breathtaking setting for al fresco entertaining on an expansive scale.

At the heart of the compound, a grand vaulted rotunda is ringed by seven arches positioned to frame seven dazzling ocean vistas. Exterior terraces on two levels are highlighted by an ocean view pool and hot tub and two covered patios with wet bars. A sandy pathway winds through flowering gardens to a stone staircase that provides private access to the sugar-white sands of Peter Bay Beach.

Every room in the main pavilion is oriented to the sea; even connecting hallways look out on ocean and sky. In the Great Room and gourmet kitchen, a dining nook is nestled in a rounded turret of arched windows overlooking the bay. Just beyond the main house with its expansive king master suite, two separate pavilions indulge guests with indoor seating areas, private verandas, and both indoor and alfresco showers.

Across the central cobblestone courtyard, stone stairs ascend to two more pavilion suites with breathtaking, elevated views. One pavilion is topped by a parapet with sweeping panoramas of the Presidio's one and a half lushly landscaped acres, the Caribbean, and the islands beyond. The other houses an apartment suite with full kitchen, living area and lavish king bedroom suite.

The exquisitely weathered beauty of this incomparable setting is complemented by a lavish array of modern amenities, including air conditioning and satellite LCD TV throughout, a superbly appointed office and a fully equipped workout room.

This St John real estate is listed for sale at $32,000,000.  To reach Jim Dalzell email Jim@DalzellGroup.com.  Presidio Del Mar is being offered for sale through the professional representation of the Dalzell Group, a San Diego real estate company specializing in luxury properties.
