EXCITING NEW REAL ESTATE DEVELOPMENT BREAKS GROUND AMIDST TURBULENT TIMES

virgo — Thu, 15 Oct 2009 14:58:47 +0000

Moonshine Ridge is located within Apes Hill Club, Barbados’ most prestigious new residential community and golf destination. Moonshine Ridge will be home to some of the largest residential lots at Apes Hill Club. Bordered by the 10th and 11th holes of the golf course, the site for this premier neighbourhood slopes gently towards the Caribbean Sea. Nearly every one of the 31 residential lots commands a view of the island’s west coast.

The first residence will be a masterpiece—a 10,000 square foot show home featuring the bespoke elements making this development unique. This property will feature a 4 bedroom house, finished basement, ocean view wrap-around terraces, an 85 foot swimming pool and 2 bedroom cottage. Construction is scheduled for completion in November 2010. The sales office, set in a traditional Bajan chattel house, will open in April 2010.

Apes Hill is to be managed by the prestigious Wentworth golf course. This is the first time that Wentworth has lent its name to another venture. The principle is that Wentworth Club brings to Apes Hill its expertise in key areas such as golf, tennis, fitness, hospitality and banqueting, to ensure that this exciting new golf and residential community, that Moonshine Ridge is nestled in, achieves world-class standards of service. The Wentworth team will train staff, manage all aspects of the club’s amenity program and strive to exceed member expectations.

Moonshine Ridge offers a glimpse of hope in this current economic climate where several developments have had to postpone construction. By staying on schedule with construction, Moonshine Ridge looks forward to driving employment opportunities as the community continues to develop.
