3 bedroom commercial marina opportunity for sale in Benjy Bay, St. George's, Grenada

An exceptionally rare opportunity to develop an existing villa and jetty on the island of Grenanda into a superlative yacht club, restaurant and marina. The vendor wishes to undertake the construction of the jetty extension and additional building in conjunction with the purchaser.


The vendor has the approval from the Authorities to transform the property into a marina. This will include:


* Extension of the existing jetty by a 100 feet long straight floating jetty with a 50 feet T section at the end. This can accommodate up to 17 yachts.


* Construction of an additional building on the premises close to the water front housing a bar, washrooms / shower facilities and a laundry.


* Transforming the ground floor of the existing villa in a restaurant seating up to 70 guests.


* The first floor of the main building is supposed to be the managers / owners apartment and office.

The vendors would preferably seek a purchaser to buy the project outright, but wishes it to be known that they would also consider selling a share of 25% - 75% to someone who wants to operate the marina and does not have the funding to buy it completely.


The villa currently comprises:
A recently constructed (2006) property, designed in the unique style of the old Caribbean estate mansions, complete with the typical Gingerbread decorations. Extremely high ceilings and extra tall windows and two-wing terrace doors keep the rooms cool without the need to use the air-conditioning.

The building compiles to the most recent standards of hurricane safety, and is located on 1300 square meters (13,000 square feet) of tropical garden fronting the shore of picturesque Benjy Bay with emerald water as calm as in a swimming pool. This small side cove of Clark’s Court Bay on the south coast of Grenada is backed on three sides by hills covered with green forest. Although it is surrounded by nature it is just a 10 to 15 minutes drive to the island's capital St. George’s and the main tourist area of Grand Anse. On the opposite shore of Clark's Court Bay, on the Mt. Hartman peninsula and Hog Island, Four Seasons is developing an 18-holes golf course with a villa resort and a luxury hotel.

Currently the property is used as residence of the honorary consul of a European country in Grenada.

On the ground floor the villa features a dining room open to the front and the back of the garden, the main kitchen, one large bedroom with en-suite bathroom, one smaller bedroom with a separate bathroom, and additional kitchenette, a laundry room and two storage rooms.

The upper floor features a master suite with bedroom, bathroom, living room and walk-in cabinet. I addition there are two more large rooms, which can be used as bedrooms or offices.

The small garden area behind the house towards the mountain is patio-like. Shaded with overhanging trees and giant bamboo it offers an open air living space with a tropical orchid garden and a small pond with waterfall.

The large garden area in front of the house facing the sea is slightly sloping down to the water and is beautifully landscaped with a pond, a Lotus water basin and many flowering trees and fruit trees such as Lime, Orange, Mango, Papaya and Golden Apple. The fully automatic watering system makes the garden easy to maintain and keeps it green even in the dry season.

In front of the house the private jetty is stretching out 20 meters (60 feet) into to bay: for mooring a boat, for swimming and for having some drinks on the 5 x 5 meter covered area.

A perfect place to live in the Caribbean. Check it out on Google Earth. The coordinates are 12 00 28.43 N and 61 43 38.13 W.

The property can easily be transformed into:


* a small marina with moorings for up to 16 boats, restaurant, bar and other required facilities, or
