Built over three years and completed in 2010, then fully renovated and newly furnished in 2022, this estate offers 1,450 m² of living space on a private 2,658 m² lot, about 300 ft from the sea.

A 100 m² entry hall with a 30-ft ceiling and a curved mahogany staircase opens onto the home. There are 7 double bedrooms, including two 100 m² master suites with sea-view terraces and dressing rooms, plus 9 bathrooms. The eat-in kitchen connects to an air-conditioned winter garden that seats 20, and a family room with a billiard table leads out to the gardens.

Outside: a 150 m² saltwater pool with pool house, two palm gardens, seven terraces, a double garage with four extra parking spaces, a laundry room and staff quarters for two.

Every door and window is solid Sipuro mahogany, a wood that can no longer be imported, fitted with Swiss hardware and double-paned safety glass. Storm-proof awnings protect the windows, and the roof uses multi-layer aluminum insulation to keep the house cool.

Floors are Marfil Caribe marble and Coralina stone, with solid oak in the master suites. The foundation is anchored 80 cm into the coral, the whole house runs on 110V and 220V, and all 10 air-conditioning units were replaced in 2022, along with a low-maintenance Swiss water system.

Sea Horse Ranch is a 100-hectare gated resort between Cabarete and Sosúa, designed by the architects Edward Durrell Stone & Associates. It has 24-hour security, five tennis courts, an equestrian centre, a beach club and restaurant by the sea, and a concierge at the gate.

Puerto Plata International Airport is about 15 minutes away, and the beaches, restaurants and watersports of Cabarete and Sosúa are minutes from the gate.
