Anguilla Real Estate For Sale...
Imagine That!

Update

This was written in early 2005. The market was already hot. Unknown to us, most of the boom-to-bubble cycle still lay ahead.

As Nori has written about, oceanfront Anguilla properties are getting harder and harder to find.

The local agents don't have any Anguilla real estate for sale!

So imagine our total surprise when this note arrived via the form (on this site) to contact Jackie Pascher...

I own 14.5 acres in the Farrington on the waterfront. It was sandy beachfront but the storms covered it with stones. I intend to sell. Please contact me.

I was excited!

I know that area. Heck, we know all the Anguilla real estate areas. This one is less developed, just a bit to the west of Long Salt Pond and near The Valley, as shown by the red arrow...

Actually, it's about a half-mile West of little-known Dropsey Bay, a wonderful, quiet spot for sunning and beginner-snorkeling.

3 Magnificent Views

A late discovery, I remembered this spot vividly, especially the views of...

1) St. Martin to the right

2) the triangular peaks of St. Barts straight ahead, and

3) open Caribbean as far as the eye can see to the left.

Three spectacular views are rare.

The trades are steady.

The waves are particularly rolling and rhythmic in that area, something that slows my internal clock. It's that sound (and sea-salt smell, of course) that pulls me to the ocean.

And the temperature in February is a definite plus, something that is always on a Montrealer's mind!

99% Of The Way There!

We were on vacation in Italy when we booked our flight to Anguilla. "Anguilla real estate for sale" does not stay "for sale" "for long!"

We had agreed to our particular 3/4 of an acre. As soon as that was confirmed and the subdivision was due to start, we decided to fly down, just to be 100% sure my memory was right, but mostly to stand on our future home in Paradise.

Too bad for Nori, though! She had to register for college. And my wife, Janice, had too much work to catch up on after five weeks in Italy.

So that left my younger daughter, Yuki, to accompany me. She has been wanting to contribute to the Web site, and it had been a long time since just the two of us had taken a trip together.

So off we went to see our very own (future) home... this particular piece of Anguilla real estate was about to become a reality!
