Offered At: $595,000 (SOLD)

Colorful gardens of bright bougainvillea, Areca palms, tropical flowers and lush shrubs await one when they arrive at this move-in ready, 3 bedroom property, overlooking the Caribbean Sea and Vieques Wildlife Refuge. Located on a southeast facing hill, this property is for those that love views, gardens and tropical breezes.

Casa Ananda is located in the Lujan neighborhood, centrally located between Isabel II and Esperanza on Vieques Island, Puerto Rico. Properties of this caliber are rarely listed for sale in this desirable neighborhood. The entrance to the Fish & Wildlife refuge is only 1/4 mile away, putting nature not only at your doorstep but visible to the horizon.

Recently remodeled, Casa Ananda is set on a hillside, slightly more than 1/2 acre, completely fenced, with privacy hedges and spectacular views of Puerto Ferro Bay. There are two bedrooms and two bathrooms in the main house, along with a full kitchen with sit-down counter bar, a shared dining & living room space, garage, laundry room, meditation space, tool room, storage area and two covered terraces. One of the terraces is a covered deck perfect for outdoor dining or entertaining, while the other is perfect for sipping morning coffee in the shade. The dining room has French Doors that open to dramatic views of the wildlife refuge and ocean, as does the master bedroom. Tiled throughout, the décor of this fully concrete and titled house is playful and colorful, reflecting the seascape views from the property.

An additional casita can be found off of the outdoor deck, which has its own sun terrace and half bath.

The hillside was hand cleared and terraced with rocks, stones and blocks to create garden beds for a tapestry of colorful and textural plants. Designed by the Master Gardner/Owner, the garden is meant to be enjoyed both from a distance and up close. It is filled with Ylang Ylang, several varieties of Palm trees, brightly colored shrubs, fruiting trees, several variety of heliconia, ferns, a huge rubber tree, bromeliads and vines. The garden provides a wonderland of exploration and discovery for humans, tree frogs, hummingbirds and raptors. As a mature garden, little care is now needed to maintain this tropical paradise.
