SUPPLEMENT - ESTATE LUCKY BOTTOM (REMAINDER 104 CANE BAY et al.) The property has a gated entry from the lower main road and a gated entry just outside of the residence. A portion of the 18.5 acres has been manicured and fenced with weather-resistant aluminum "wrought iron" creating a yard perfect for pets and children to frolic or for outdoor entertainment. The grounds are abundant with fruit trees including key lime, pomegranate, breadfruit, guava berry, plantain, banana, Barbados cherry, Bay tree, Israeli tamarind as well as beautiful mature mahogany trees. Various historic ruins remain from the sugar factory/plantation and include a well-preserved sugar mill, date stone 1820, ox mill, smoke stack, sugar factory with rum still cistern and 3 "coppers" boiling vats reportedly the only coppers in the USVI that are intact. These ruins are part of the larger plantation which runs to the slave quarters by the Cane Bay Dive Shop and great house ruins in the adjoining area of Cane Bay Plantation. In addition to the total privacy of this homesite, it is within a short walk or just a few minutes drive to beautiful beaches (in fact a waterfront lot just down the hill from the homesite is included in this sale), many fun restaurants, world class diving at Cane Bay Beach along with good snorkeling spots due to the reef, an 18-hole golf course designed by Robert Trent Jones and, if that isn't enough to keep you busy, main access roads to all you need in any direction are nearby. The north shore offers some of the most spectacular views of any spot on St. Croix. More rural in nature, this area is characterized by lush stretches and rolling hills of undeveloped land dotted by sugar mills and swaying palm trees. The home has views down the coast line to the east and all the way to scenic Hamms Bluff with its lone light house to the west. Sunsets are spectacular and the night sky shines bright creating a wonderful sparkling canopy every evening. This property truly offers the sun and the moon.
