Owner profile


About the owner
Barbadian born, grew up and spent most of my working life in Canada. I always love Barbados; that's why I bought the house. My Canadian friends and family use it regularly and I take my family each year.

Year purchased: 2006

Why the owner chose a home in this location
The townhouse is located in Fitts Village not far from Jordan's Supermarket; and a five minute walk to the beach. The west coast of Barbados is one of the most well developed parts of Barbados with excellent amenities.

Unique benefits of the property
The surprising benefit is the quietness and tranquility, despite being fairly close to the shops and beach.
