There are oceanfront estates in the Caribbean. Then there is Black Urchin. Represented by The Agency’s Stefan Cohen, one of the most unique and architecturally significant private residential compounds in the Caribbean is now on the market. The estate spans 2.2 acres, boasting 365 feet of uninterrupted shoreline and direct ocean access. Singular in its class, this home pairs exceptional privacy with expansive proportions and elevated design.

Currently operating as a boutique beachfront resort (and zoned Beach Resort/Residential), the property is anchored by six contemporary residences, including two spacious private villas and four four-bedroom residences.

A reception building features a full commercial kitchen, staff back-of-house lounge, and additional laundry facilities. A fully permitted private dock provides an over-the-ocean pavilion.

The principal villa is a study in modern coastal architecture, offering five oceanfront primary bedroom suites, including a 1,200-square-foot top-floor ultra suite that spans the entire third level. Its east and west Pavilion Suites also offer sweeping 180-degree views of the Caribbean Sea and guests will enjoy their own private pool, hot tub, and a swim-up bar.

The second private villa is the most secluded residence on the estate, with its own dedicated pool, hot tub, two poolside beachfront cabanas, and the most expansive grounds, creating a completely private retreat. The quadplex shares an expansive resort-style pool with two hot tubs, submerged seating, a beachfront poolside bar, and a private cabana, forming an elevated gathering place designed for ease and relaxation.

At the center of it all: natural beauty. The architecture, landscape, and sightlines all work together to keep you connected to the sea. Mature landscaping, sculpted lawns, and layered terraces create quiet pockets for retreat as well as generous spaces for entertaining. The layout naturally supports large families, legacy ownership, or those who regularly travel with a full support team such as pilots, nannies, chefs, or security. Very few properties offer this level of discretion and functional versatility.
