Daydreaming about uninhabited islands could probably qualify as an official Virgin Islands pastime. What could you put there? An eco-resort? A little house with a shady wrap-around gallery? Or maybe you leave it as it is and host bourgeoisie weekend cookouts on your private island.
While the owners and agents of Christie’s International Real Estate USVI have been serving the St. Croix market for decades from its home base of St. Thomas, heightened interest from buyers over the past few years prompted the establishment of a bricks-and-mortar location on the island.
Steele Point, one of the British Virgin Island’s most recognizable properties, has been listed for sale, a real estate agent confirmed Friday. Current owners are asking $25 million.
Several of St. Thomas' most legendary structures are on the real estate market, including Skytsborgtarn, better known as Blackbeard's Castle, a National Historic Landmark.
The hilltop castle on St. Croix’s east end is officially off the market, sold to a native Crucian for $9.5 million, the real estate agent said Thursday.
Undeterred by the cold shoulder past attempts received, the V.I. real estate industry is again pushing for government intervention to renovate or clear derelict properties from the territory's cityscapes.
