Nestled in one of Grand Cayman’s most exclusive locales lies a residence said to have been built by a real-life Tony Soprano.
If true, it is unsurprising that someone of such notoriety and wealth would have chosen this picture-perfect location for a hideaway in paradise.
Elevated 15 feet above sea level, and with uninterrupted views of the Caribbean Sea, the intriguing house is situated on Old Prospect Road – one of the most sought-after addresses in the whole of the Caribbean.
While undoubtedly a discreet setting for those who seek peace and privacy, it is also just minutes from the amenities of Harbour Walk and George Town, with their array of shops, restaurants and services.
Make it your own
The villa’s exterior was recently refreshed with a modern, neutral palette, but inside, the classic décor could well be a reflection of its reputed past. And although walk-in ready, the new owner could easily tailor the interiors to their own unique taste and give the home more of a contemporary style.
Featuring four bedrooms and five bathrooms, along with a private in-law suite, there are soaring 12- to 14-foot vaulted ceilings and travertine marble floors, as well as custom walnut woodwork throughout.
At 4,250-square-feet, the villa is ideal as a spacious family home, with an open-plan living area that flows seamlessly to the outdoor deck and pool.
The heated saltwater pool, Jacuzzi, and cantilevered gazebo add to the appeal, making it easy to imagine enjoying the cool sea breezes, cocktail in hand, while watching the incomparable Cayman sunset.
Sustainability and efficiency
But it’s not just glamour that the house has to offer – this elegant villa also encompasses sustainability and efficiency. There are solar panels as well as geothermal air-conditioning throughout, along with a whole-house generator and electronic hurricane shutters.
In the garden, four deep wells provide irrigation, keeping the grounds pristine year-round.
All these amenities provide peace-of-mind for hurricane season – essential for ocean-facing properties on the island – as well as remarkably low energy costs.
All in all, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to purchase a property of the size, luxury and location that rarely comes on the market.
So, regardless of the mystery surrounding its original owner, there’s no doubt this residence will make a storied home for whoever is fortunate enough to call it theirs.
