5 BD | 6F + 1H BA | 5000 SF +/- | 0.5 AC | OCEANVIEW | $17,500,000 Located on one of the highest points Point Milou, and with 270º ocean views showcasing the tropical sunrise to sunset, Villa DOL - La Danse Des Étoiles, or Dance of the Stars - offers some of the most spectacular panoramic views one will find on St. Barthélemy. Designed by famed modern architects Barnes Coy and fabricated by local master builder Xavier David, the nearly 5000sf home features five bedrooms, six full and one half bath set on lushly landscaped .5 acres. An additional 1600sf of finished outdoor living space adds to the magnificence of the property, which is completed by a 70’ solar heated infinity waterfall pool finished in black lava stone. Constructed using only the finest - and strongest - materials, Villa DOL is framed in steel and clad with imported Pennsylvania Limestone, chosen not only for its aesthetic appeal, but for its ability to withstand the intense tropical elements. The stone is complemented by teak and mahogany trim work and finishes, adding warmth and a zen spa feel to the villa. Floor to ceiling retractible glass doors can be opened to let gentle sea breezes pass through the home, and maximize the indoor-outdoor living experience. On the main level, three en suite bedrooms also feature private outdoor patios complete with outdoor showers, each protected by strategically placed natural stone walls to ensure total privacy. A gourmet chef’s kitchen features top line appliances, fixtures, and finishes, the quality only exceeded by the stunning views out to sea across the bays of Lorient and St. Jean, with St. Maarten and Anguilla in view. Indoor dining and living spaces flow seamlessly to the outdoor entertainment spaces, where the western views offer the most dramatic sunsets. Downstairs, an additional two en suite bedrooms are bright and filled with natural light, and are completed with a gym, treatment room, recreation space, and media center as well as laundry and mechanical rooms. Once outside, the grounds are a mix of natural and manicured specimen plantings all designed to complement the structure and the views. Multi-level patios offer multiple private places to relax, all centering back under the covered living space and outdoor kitchen. An architectural outdoor open air bathroom and shower is a marvel in itself, and as daytime turns to evening, all of this is enhanced by dramatic outdoor lighting creating a perfect place to watch the dance of the stars.
