Bulkeley Plantation
Bulkeley Great House is one of the more attractive and impressive great houses in Barbados. Originally owned by William Bulkeley who was listed as a landowner in Barbados in 1638, records show that Bulkeley Plantation remained in the Bulkley family until 1724 when Mary, daughter and heir of William Bulkeley married John Gould of Essex, England. The property changed hands over the years and was owned more recently by two of the prominent Barbadian family?s, the Sealey's and the Pile's.A spacious and charming Great House with a large front lawn, tropical garden and a recently built feature swimming pool, the property enjoys an impressive historical presence throughout with its thick coral stone walls, superb period arches, large stately rooms and gorgeous wooden floors.Situated in the heart of the St. George Valley which is known as ?the bread basket? of the island because of its fertile and bountiful production of sugar cane, one is immediately impressed when meandering through the main gates up the driveway to the house by its grand double staircase leading up to the main entrance and front porch of the property. The main hallway to the house leads past the large reception rooms (living, sitting, dining) to a large kitchen with access to the rear courtyard and the gardens.The accommodation includes:Ground FloorEntrance hallLiving roomSitting roomDining roomOffice areaKitchenPowder roomPatioRear courtyard covered areaFirst floorMaster bedroom with ensuiteBedroom 2Bedroom 3 with ensuiteBedroom 4Family bathroomOffices:Out buildings:Courtyard:House 10,000sqft approxGrounds 8 acres approxSALE PRICE: BDS$9,000,000 / US$4,500,000
