The views from this property are unique and spectacular. All within one’s line of sight are the colorful houses in Moroppo, the Isabel II Lighthouse, the deep blue colors of the Caribbean Sea, and sunsets over El Yunque rain forest. If you ever get bored with this view, you’ll never be pleased with one anywhere in the world.
This two unit building is situated on half an acre and survived without a scratch from Hurricane Maria. Thanks to the craftsmanship of a Maine cabinetmaker, this property was built sturdy with beams and bolts, all with decorative details similar to some of the older french-style homes in town. This house was built right, with style, and built to last.
The first floor unit consists of concrete walls and ceilings, and has a full bath, efficiency kitchen living room and bedroom. A two-stall enclosed garage can be found on this floor as well.
The second floor unit has an expansive covered deck, kitchen, living room, dining area, bedroom, full bath and office area. The French West Indies style architecture is most prominent in this unit, assuring oneself that they are indeed in the Caribbean. The large windows afford the spectacular view that can be found from this hill. The carpentry on this floor is reminiscent of many colonial buildings found throughout Vieques. Attention to detail is evident.
This 1700 square foot building can be adapted and used in various ways. The current owner is living upstairs, and using the lower unit as an artist’s space, while previous owners used the downstairs unit as an office. Both units could easily be combined or rented out separately. And there is ample space on the property to add another building, or even a pool off of the front deck.
