An exceptional St. Croix estate with privacy, views and resort-style amenities. Driving up towards the Southgate Estate, the drive climbs through three private acres on the hillside above Green Cay Marina, and the first thing that greets you is the sea. The view stretches across the marina to Green Cay and Buck Island, then out over open Caribbean water, and it stays with you in nearly every room of the house. This is an estate built the way few private homes are. The structure was constructed to commercial standards, and you feel that quality the moment you step inside. The great room is the heart of the home, a grand, open space where the kitchen, dining and living areas come together beneath a soaring tongue-and-groove wood ceiling carried on massive commercial-grade beams. It is a room scaled for gatherings, yet the warmth of the wood keeps it inviting. A long line of arched windows and French doors opens the entire room to the sea, letting in the light and the trade winds and drawing everyone straight out to the terraces. The kitchen sits at the center of it all, so whoever is cooking never misses the view or the conversation. High-gloss white cabinetry, granite countertops and a mirrored backsplash surround a generous angled island with a cooktop, set on polished tile floors. Built-in Sub-Zero refrigerators, a new wall oven, cooktop, dishwasher and ice maker make it as practical as it is handsome, whether you are preparing a quiet dinner for two or catering an evening for a crowd. The private quarters are thoughtfully spread across the home's wings and levels. Five bedroom suites give owners and guests genuine separation, so a full house never feels crowded. The main-level suites open toward the terraces and the water. Upstairs, two additional living areas, one opening to its own balcony, offer room for a media room, a home office or a quiet place to read. Below, a separate one-bedroom apartment with its own living room, bath and terrace welcomes extended guests or staff in complete privacy. Its kitchen has been newly renovated with all-wood white shaker cabinets, quartz countertops, a breakfast island and new appliances. A garage completes the lower level. Step outside and the estate truly comes into its own. Covered verandas lined with graceful arches wrap the main level, connecting the great room to the bedroom wings and opening onto the pool deck. The tiled pool, recently re-grouted with a new pool light, is the centerpiece, framed by a terracotta deck for lounging in the sun and shaded dining beneath the arches, all looking out to the sea and Buck Island. Mornings begin with coffee on the veranda. Afternoons drift between the pool and the shade. Evenings end with dinner outdoors as the lights come on across the marina below. Beneath the terraces, a lower covered walkway lined with arches leads to a wide lawn framed by bougainvillea and palms, stepping gently down the hillside. Up the slope, past the lighted tennis court, stands the property's most memorable feature: a stone Sugar Mill transformed into a private retreat. Inside its stone walls, the craftsmanship and custom woodwork are exceptional. A custom bar, an upper floor, a full bathroom, a tall arched window and arched wooden doors make it a one-of-a-kind setting for sunset c
