Saving Grace Villa, Turks & CaicosSaving Grace Villa, Turks & CaicosSaving Grace Villa, Turks & CaicosSaving Grace Villa, Turks & Caicos

Proud developer/owner Adrian Elliot throws a house warming celebration to thank all involved in the project and to showcase the property, Saving Grace, to the TCI Community.  Attendees included, amongst other Provo residents and friends, leading Brokers, Sales Associates, Attorneys & Property Managers, who soaked up the opportunity to whet their palettes and indulge in all that is Saving Grace.  The plush $8,000,000 property sat perfectly positioned to provide its guests with a peaceful ambience, using nature’s sunset as its backdrop and the gentle lapping of the ocean as its soundtrack.

The exquisite beachfront home is a new build and unique design located in the up-scale residential neighborhood of Leeward on Pelican Beach.  Guests entering the event marveled at the 23-foot foyer with mahogany staircase leading to the upper level, but found themselves instinctively gathering in the 930 square foot kitchen and informal dining area of this custom built family home.  Canapes and refreshments were displayed and up for grabs along a walnut island, serving as the focal point of the fully equipped kitchen.  Other guests filtered their way out to the terrace to feel the cool ocean breeze and converse around the 42-foot swimming pool and many outdoor lounge areas set amidst spectacular landscaping and beach views.

Turks & Caicos Real Estate Market Report – 2nd Quarter 2013

MarketReport2ndQ2013After a tepid start to the year, Turks & Caicos had a strong second quarter to finish the first half of the year up 16.9%  in dollar volume over last year. This increase is mostly based on the 16.5M Grace Bay beach transaction to the same Venezuelan hotel developer (Desarrollos Hotelco Turks & Caicos Ltd. (DHTCI)), behind the JW Marriot project to the west of Seven Stars. In addition, the July 1st increase in stamp duty fueled a number of deals into late June closings.
