Villa Vesper

Clinging to the hillside within a private estate in Lurin, Villa Vesper looks out over the bay of Saint-Jean and the ocean; from the private parking area, a stone staircase winds through its vast tropical garden. Built on three levels in a modern architectural style, it embraces a sober, minimalist aesthetic. The large living room, fully open to the terrace, combines a lounge with an immense solid-wood table for twelve; an adjoining room holds a second lounge, ideal for film evenings, close to the equipped kitchen with its long counter and wine cellar. Outside, the 18-metre heated pool stretches across the full width of the house, between palms, sun loungers and a corner sofa facing the open sea. The four air-conditioned bedrooms, each with its own bathroom, sleep eight and look out over the bay or the hills. Gustavia and the beaches of Gouverneur and Saline are just minutes away.
