Georgetown - Bermuda's Modern House

Georgetown - Bermuda's Modern House, 50A Harrington Sound Road, Bermuda – Sinclair Realty

From the moment we entered Georgetown -- a new modernist house in the heart of Walsingham district of Hamilton Parish -- we knew we were experiencing something special. One simply feels better in a well designed home, and this is clearly accomplished by Georgetown's Bermuda architect, along with Anders Lasater, the award-winning California architect responsible for the property's stunning landscaped entrance. The auspicious 1.3-acre site provides inspiring overland views to Castle Harbour and Harrington Sound plus shared water access to Castle Harbour with a short walk from the property. To the west of the main house, within Georgetown's grounds, lies the enchanting Emerald Bank Cave with its multiple natural salt-water pools and surprising natural light. Wide wrap-around travertine terraces embrace the stunning vistas. Georgetown's interior is characterized by 16' ceilings in many rooms and abundant use of glass balanced by the warmth of walnut flooring, as well as stone and concrete finishes. This is a home where art and architecture become one. To the left of the ledger-stone entrance hall is the open living and dining space with a striking glass painting by master craftsman Shimi Pelleg and sliding glass walls to the swimming pool terrace. The luxury center-island kitchen also features moveable glass walls leading to a wrap-around terrace and the pool, convenience to the internal access garage, and includes Italian-designed cabinetry by Snaidero, Dornbracht fixtures from Germany, commercial grade appliances, and Caesarstone solid and semi-precious stone surfaces. The upper-floor master bedroom suite is another stand-out with solid core doors and walnut flooring, a large private terrace, and an awe-inspiring walk-in closet and master bathroom. Flexibility of use is important to the Georgetown concept. Two of the possible four main-house bedroom suites are equipped for dual purposes as media room/gym and study. Accommodation also includes a beautifully finished apartment with a separate assessment number -- comprising 1200 sq. ft. with two bedrooms and two bathrooms. Technology at Georgetown includes provisions for addition of gated entry, security cameras, intercom, 4K TV viewing, Surround Sound, and integration for iPad stations amongst other features. A full list of finishes is available upon request, as is a RH Modern view book of interior design concepts.
