Miramar is the ultimate expression of Caribbean luxury, located on a dramatic waterfront bluff at the edge of the sea that offers sweeping, panoramic views of the turquoise Caribbean Sea and the iconic Buck Island. This landscaped extraordinary estate seamlessly blends refined elegance with the breathtaking beauty of its natural surroundings, creating a private sanctuary unlike any other. Formerly known as the Appleton Estate and named among Elite Traveler's ''Top Ten Villas in the Caribbean,'' this exceptional property is a private sanctuary of sophistication and comfort, located in the coveted Estate Solitude on St. Croix's northeast shore in the prime location facing Buck Island. From the moment you enter through the private gate, a columned portico and tranquil fountain set the stage for the grandeur that awaits. Inside, the magnificent 2,400-square-foot Great Room welcomes you with soaring coffered ceilings, regal columns, Italian marble floors that extend throughout every room and outdoor deck area, and sparkling crystal chandeliers. Artful lighting, stunning sculptures and art, and walls of French doors frame breathtaking, unobstructed views of the sea, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor beauty.

Designed for both relaxation and elegant entertaining, the Great Room features a plush living area anchored by a 70-inch LED 4K HD television with surround sound, an elegant formal dining space with coral table for 12+ seating, and an 18-foot granite-topped wet bar facing the sea through large panoramic glass, complete with beverage coolers and an ice maker. The adjoining gourmet kitchen is a masterpiece in both form and function, offering black granite countertops, custom cabinetry, twin Sub-Zero refrigerator and freezer, Wolf and Asko appliances, and every culinary tool a chef could desire. Whether hosting intimate dinners or grand gatherings, this kitchen delivers the perfect setting for culinary excellence.

Step through the Great Room's French doors to Miramar's outdoor paradise. A heated infinity pool appears to merge seamlessly with the shimmering Caribbean Sea, creating a visual masterpiece that stretches toward the horizon. The Corazzo marble extends to the expansive terrace that is thoughtfully designed with cushioned loungers, shaded seating areas, a private breakfast table and seating area, and a large coral-stone dining table ideal for alfresco meals and sunset cocktails. A built-in stainless steel gas grill adds to the effortless enjoyment of outdoor entertaining, while panoramic views of Buck Island, passing yachts, and soaring pelicans offer a constant reminder of the beauty that surrounds you.

Miramar's fully screened and air-conditioned accommodations are equally extraordinary. In the east wing, the king primary suite is a private retreat featuring a spacious sitting area with two French double doors that open to the pool terrace. The ensuite large bath rivals a luxury spa, with separated double sinks and vanities, enclosed water closets, custom walk-in closets; a glass-enclosed shower, and a Jacuzzi tub. Descending from the primary suite, three additional bedrooms offer luxurious comfort - two with king beds, and a third with two queen poster beds, each having stunning sea views. Each room is air-conditioned and features an ensuite bath or shower with a private water closet, and French double doors that open to a two-tiered patio surrounded by vibrant tropical landscaping and mesmerizing ocean vistas.

On the main level's west wing, Miramar's second king primary suite offers another haven of elegance. With its sunken living area, expansive sea views, and French double doors opening to the terrace, this suite blends comfort and style effortlessly. The ensuite bath is equally indulgent, with double vanities, a glass-enclosed shower, a Jacuzzi tub, and a private water

closet. Adjacent to this suite, the wood-paneled library offers a distinguished retreat, doubling as a sixth bedroom with a convertible sofa. Its extensive book collection and refined atmosphere make it an excellent space for hosting meetings, catching up on work, or unwinding with a good read in a setting that exudes sophistication and purpose.

For wellness enthusiasts, Miramar's air-conditioned gym is fully equipped with NordicTrack equipment, free weights, and cushioned rubber flooring, all complemented by a satellite 4K Ultra HDTV and striking views of the Caribbean Sea. Whether exercising or simply taking in the scenery, this thoughtfully designed space makes wellness a pleasure.

Every detail of Miramar reflects impeccable craftsmanship and thoughtful design. Custom louvered wood panels allow for perfect light control, while elegant cabinetry, original artwork, and designer furnishings enhance the home's sophisticated ambiance. Beyond the main living spaces, Miramar includes a fully equipped studio apartment with upscale finishes, a 78-panel solar system with net metering, efficient LED lighting throughout, an attached one-car garage, and a detached two-car garage with additional lower-level storage housing a 60 KW automatic diesel generator. Along with a gated entry, Miramar has a security system throughout. Full DISH TV with HD screens is available in six rooms, ensuring modern comfort and connectivity throughout the estate.

A rare opportunity to own one of the Caribbean's finest estates, Miramar offers an exceptional lifestyle defined by privacy, elegance, and natural beauty. Meticulously maintained and offered at a fraction of its replacement cost, this property represents both a luxury retreat and an unparalleled investment. From its world-class amenities to its breathtaking setting, Miramar is a timeless masterpiece where Caribbean dreams become reality.
