Lots 18 and 19 as one estate
Lots 18 and 19 sit side by side at the end of the row. Together they make 3,894.45 m² with about 77 m along the sea, for US$7,788,900. These renders imagine one villa across both lots.
Concept renders over real drone footage of the island, imagining one villa across lots 18 and 19. It is one idea, not an approved design, and the dock and landscaping are illustrative. A real project has to follow the R2 rules (ground + 2 floors, half the lot covered at most, setbacks) and the project owner must approve the building plans.
