Perhaps the most appropriate way to introduce this property is to start by
saying congratulations to whomsoever will become the next lucky
owner. I know, you're probably thinking that this is the strangest
way to list a property, but read on and you will understand why
our daughter cried when we first bought the property and why she
cried when we made our decision to sell.
When was the last time you built a dream with your own two hands
and then found yourself struggling with the thought of giving away
that dream to someone else? Well, as painful as it may be, this
is the decision that my family and I are faced with as we must sell
our beautiful dream home and our "little piece of tropical
paradise". Don't get me wrong, selling our home is for a good
reason as our business is expanding at an exponential rate, to the
extent that we must expand our business and life adventures into
Asia. Yep, we're migrating to Asia and our beautiful home is all
yours.
We left Canada (and the freezing cold) over fifteen years ago and
found two pretty little Caribbean islands called Antigua and Barbuda.
As a result, we fell in love with these islands and it's people,
built our home on Antigua and never left. Back then, it seemed like
we landed on another planet as the people were so friendly and welcoming
that we felt like they had known us for many years. Everywhere we
went on the island we were greeted with warm friendly smiles and
open arms. Perhaps this is why Christopher Columbus fell in love
with this enchanted paradise, when he landed on the island in 1493
and named it "Santa Maria de la Antigua" after a miracle-working
saint of Seville. Anyway, I digress.
Long story short, we spent months searching for the most ideal
location on the island to put down our roots. We visited house after
house but none of them spoke to us, nor did they have the key characteristics
we were looking for in a home. Until one day, we finally visited
a property that possessed all the ingredients and potential in the
world. Our first criteria was a location with a view of the ocean.
The property did not have to be located right on the beach, but
it had to be close enough for us to see the ocean in the distance.
To our surprise we got our first wish, a beautiful view of the bay,
hence the name "Bay View Place", and we got so much more.
