Becune Point Development

Former home of Nobel Prize winning poet Derek Walcott, Incredible Blue (from his poem Becune Point) is a hidden paradise on the waters edge at Becune Point.

It is important to note that the purchase of this land and its properties presents a unique opportunity for the purchaser. The existing properties can be renovated or alternatively the land can be completely redeveloped to your own specification.

Location is everything

Imagine a place where the Caribbean Sea quite literally serenades you to sleep. Where dawn breaks with a quiet sense of promise and every evening gifts you a private performance of nature's most dramatic sunsets.

Such is the rare enchantment of this extraordinary 2.4-acre beachfront estate on Saint Lucia's prestigious Cap Estate peninsula. A tranquil expanse that whispers of privacy, serenity and the legacy of creative brilliance.

History

Perched at the water's edge, this coastal sanctuary boasts a legacy as rich as its panoramic views. Once the cherished retreat of a Nobel Prize-winning poet. That same artistic spirit still seems to dance on the ocean breezes. As you stand on the terrace, you'll drink in the sight of nearby historic Pigeon Island, surfers darting around rocky outcrops, the tantalizing profile of Martinique's shores shimmering in the distance. The maritime theatre unfolds before you in an endlessly fascinating display. Tall ships, sleek cruise liners, trans-Atlantic yachtsmen, jet skiers and vibrant speedboats glide past like actors in your own private seafront pageant.

Becune Point Development

Now is a most opportune time to secure your place in Saint Lucia's evolving luxury landscape. The island is currently experiencing a surge of remarkable investment in ultra-premium hotels, world-class golf courses, increased tourism and upscale amenities. This promises a future defined by sophisticated leisure and refined living. Against this dynamic backdrop, this Cap Estate enclave offers a double opportunity. Firstly the chance either to lovingly restore and refurbish its existing structures thereby honoring their historic charm and timeworn character. Alternatively reimagine the entire setting as a bold, contemporary haven, artfully complementing the natural beauty of your surroundings.

Existing Structures

Within the grounds, a thoughtful approach to privacy ensures that you feel comfortably removed from the world beyond, while still relishing the convenience of secure, easy access from above the coastal rise.

The buildings themselves, built over a quarter century ago, are arranged with a certain poetic flair. The main house perches dramatically on a waters edge, so close to the sea that the gentle sound of waves breaking provides a soothing lullaby. Here, you'll find a spacious one-bedroom suite, a dedicated office and an open-plan kitchen, living, and dining areas. Overlooking an azure swimming pool and the vivid turquoise waters beyond, it's a place to savor a cool sundowner and let the day's cares simply drift away.

Beyond the main residence, several smaller cottages and apartments await discovery. One sits quietly facing westward, its retreat welcoming guests with comforting simplicity, while another structure houses both a cozy studio and a self-contained one bedroom apartment, each with its own intimate patio and cleverly appointed kitchenette.

A caretaker's house nestles just behind, discreetly placed for practicality yet never encroaching on your sense of spaciousness and solitude. Taken together, these existing buildings offer ample inspiration, yet there's no limit to the possibilities if you choose to expand or reconfigure according to your own vision.

Very Rare Opportunity

In a world where beachfront estates in Cap Estate are very rare, this property's generous size and prime location distinguish it as a singular opportunity for those who understand that real value lies not merely in the land itself, but in the lifestyle, history, and boundless potential.

We'd be delighted to share every detail, helping you envision how best to transform this Caribbean jewel into your very own masterpiece.
