Windward House
The owner selected a site 300 meters from the sea, surrounded by open land. The eastern-most parcel in Sea Horse Ranch, one of the Dominican Republic North Coast’s premiere residential communities, the property enjoys constant easterly tradewinds, cooled by the nearby ocean. Six ensuite bedrooms take advantage of generous cross-ventilation while outdoor living areas abound. With floors of Italian marble, cabinetry of American Maple and windows and doors of exotic hardwood, Windward House answers the client’s call for a villa combining European elegance with American practicality. The equipment selected was the very best and unusual features like cascading fishponds, solar hot water heating and a climate-controlled 400-bottle wine cave define this remarkable home.
