Aptly named, this wonderfully artistic home fits into the landscape opening to magnificent views of the sea and St. Kitts and open terrain on the hillside near Montpelier Plantation. Designed as a Japanese pole house, the villa marries various types of wood into a warm, beautiful environment that is calming as well as rich. The minimalist-style is unique to Nevis, yet its roof design and open verandas are reminiscent of a West Indian style and work well in the environment and tropical climate, and were designed to face hurricane force winds. The large pool is great for lap swimming and the guest cottage is open for many uses at owner's discretion. The vantage point provides 360-degree views of Nevis Peak, the sea, St. Kitts and even Saba and Statia.
