Full Description

This property is locatedin the hills of Dominica. Approximately 190 acres of unspoiled land surrounded by a beautiful mountain range, this land provides the ultimate in privacy and unspoiled beauty. Only 20 minutes from the main town of Roseau up the Imperial Road, it was once a productive estate and has all of the infrastructure remaining with roads and building sites. Although Dominica is known for its abundance of rainfall, the estate has its own spring and water supply. This land provides a most unique opportunity to create ones own retirement mansion, a subdivision of high-end homes, a first class eco-resort, the possibility of numerous agriculture ventures, or a combination of all of the above.

Much of the land is flat and the building sites command some of the most inspiring views of the mountains, valleys and a piece of the Caribbean in the distance. There is currently some farming on the land of bananas and produce but most of the land sits vacant. Part of the land goes up to the mountain ranges and is designated "water catchment" which cannot be developed at this point but provides the privacy and security that is so valuable.

Dominica has been called the "greenest" jewel of the Caribbean. Unlike most of the other islands, the island is of volcanic origin and comprises a land of steep and ruged mountains (Mt. Diabolitin rises 4,747 feet), verdant countryside, lush rain forests with wildlife, and plemnty of rainfall. The island lies in the middle of the eastern chain of islands which enclose the Caribbean Sea. The grey Atlantic lies to the eastern side and the blue Caribbean to the west. It boasts a fresh water lake, a boiling lake, sulfur springs, cascading waterfallls and as many rivers as days of the year. The flora and fauna is unparalled and the it is truly an island of breathtaking beauty.

Dominica is one of the last islands to grow economically and as the concept of eco-tourism becomes more popular, there has been more and more small hotels and resorts being built to accomodate the growing influx of visitors. There is  improved infrastructure and communications, a stable government and support for external organizations are contributing to making the country attractive to outside investment. The people are warm and friendly and the opportunities for business and development is unlimited. 

This is one of the largest parcels of land currently available not only on Dominica but throughout the Caribbean. The final contract would be subject to a survey to determine the boundaries and  once a deposit is placed on the land, an Alien Landholder's lisence  must be appied for which is a process that can take several months. Investing in the island is encouraged by the government and they attempt to expedite the process once all the documents have been completed. These would include particulars of ownership, purpose for which the property is to be utilized, the surveyors plan, and approval from the building department for any building(s) to be constructed. 

This unique estate is now being sold by the family that bought it almost 80 years ago. It is one of the most beautiful parcels of land and it offers unlimited opportunity now and for the future.
