Valley Trunk Estate Lists for $49.5M, Offering Unrivaled Beachfront Luxury on Virgin Gorda
June 3, 2025 – A Caribbean estate of rare scale and provenance has officially come to market. Listed at $49,500,000, Valley Trunk Estate is a meticulously restored beachfront compound spanning over 18 acres on Valley Trunk Bay, one of Virgin Gorda’s most private and picturesque stretches of coastline. Co-listed by Christie’s International Real Estate | British Virgin Islands and Premier Estate Properties, the property sets a new benchmark for private resort-style living in the Caribbean.
Developed from the ground up by a single family over the course of four decades, the estate was originally envisioned as a secluded vacation retreat and later operated as a high-end rental destination. Following a comprehensive renovation completed in 2024, the property is now positioned for flexible use—either as a turnkey private residence or an income-generating hospitality asset.
A Private Bay With Over 1,000 Feet of Beachfront
The estate’s most defining feature is its total ownership of Big Trunk Bay’s entire beachfront—more than 1,000 feet of white sand and turquoise water. Set on a gently sloping hill, the home’s structures are surrounded by manicured tropical gardens, granite rock formations, and sweeping views of the Sir Francis Drake Channel. The landscape evokes similarities to the Seychelles, but with direct proximity to the British Virgin Islands’ marina, resorts, and natural reserves.
10 Suites Across Five Villas
Valley Trunk includes ten suites distributed among five standalone villas, all designed for maximum privacy. A recent interior redesign introduced raised ceilings, French folding doors, and a natural materials palette featuring handcrafted elements from Kenya, custom Italian cabinetry, and artisan furnishings sourced from across Africa and Europe. En-suite bathrooms feature travertine stone, custom vanities, and glass tilework, while windows and glass doors—sourced in Germany—enhance the property's weather resilience and indoor-outdoor livability.
A Main House for Entertaining
The Main House is the estate’s centerpiece, featuring an expansive living area, custom-designed lounge, home cinema, bar, and a fully renovated infinity pool overlooking the sea. A poolside seating ledge was added to maximize sunset views, while the pool itself received upgraded lighting, tilework, and filtration systems. Adjacent to the main living area are indoor and outdoor dining spaces, a professional-grade kitchen, and a dedicated service wing.
Mature Gardens and On-Site Nursery
The grounds are as thoughtfully curated as the interiors. Mature gardens include mango, starfruit, almond, and cashew trees—many of which were grown on-site in the estate’s own nursery. Several walking paths and nature trails weave through the estate, showcasing local flora and leading down to the beach. Interior courtyards and planters are refreshed regularly with plants cultivated directly on the property, creating a seamless blend between architecture and ecosystem.
Resort-Level Amenities and Ancillary Structures
In addition to the primary villas, the estate includes a two-bedroom manager’s house, separate staff accommodation, laundry and storage facilities, and a generator building. A four-bedroom guest villa with a floodlit tennis court can serve as guest housing, staff quarters, or be converted into a spa or fitness facility. All structures are air-conditioned and equipped with high-speed fiber internet, ensuring modern conveniences meet the expectations of today’s luxury market.
A Strategic Location in the British Virgin Islands
While privacy defines Valley Trunk Estate, it remains highly accessible. The property is located just minutes from Virgin Gorda’s central marina, restaurants, and upscale retail offerings. It also sits within easy reach of Rosewood Little Dix Bay and the North Sound, which is home to Necker Island, Oil Nut Bay, and other globally recognized resort developments. This makes the estate attractive not only as a private residence, but also as a strategic investment within one of the Caribbean’s most exclusive enclaves.
