Villa Melograno is one of those West Coast homes that quietly stands apart.

Set along Pomegranate Row in Sunset Crest, just off Sandy Lane, this contemporary four-bedroom villa blends Italian design with relaxed Caribbean living in a way that feels intentional, polished, and easy to live in. Everything you want is close by, yet the home itself feels calm, private, and residential.

This is a true 10/10/10 location.

• Five minutes on foot to Sandy Lane Hotel, Golf Club, and Tennis Centre
• Ten minutes’ walk to Sandy Lane Beach
• Fifteen minutes to Limegrove’s shops, cafés, and restaurants

You are right in the heart of the Platinum Coast, without the noise or foot traffic that often comes with it.

Melograno sits on 12,152 sq. ft. of land with approximately 2,503 sq. ft. of interior space. The villa has been carefully refurbished, with major upgrades completed in 2017–2018 and further improvements in 2024. The result is a fully furnished, turn-key home that feels current and thoughtfully finished.

The main living space opens into a bright family room anchored by a standout Scavolini kitchen imported from Italy. Clean lines, smart storage, pull-out pantries, and twin refrigerators make this a kitchen designed for real use, not just show. A full suite of black SMEG appliances includes a rare triple-stack unit with an integrated coffee machine, adding a strong European signature to the space.

From here, the home flows across gentle split levels. A few steps lead down into the sitting room, where high ceilings and soft natural light create a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere. Large doors open directly onto the covered patio and pool, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor experience. This is where mornings start slowly and evenings tend to stretch longer than planned.

Furnishings throughout the villa are by Calligaris, giving the interiors a cohesive, modern look that feels curated rather than staged. The style is clean, comfortable, and quietly confident.

Accommodation is generous and well-balanced. Two master bedroom suites offer a level of comfort that is hard to find in this location and price range. Both feel like private retreats and are fitted with Apple TV. Two additional guest bedrooms on the lower level make the villa ideal for families and visiting friends, while still allowing owners their own space.

Melograno is also exceptionally well-suited for modern living. Cat-5 cabling runs to every room, Wi-Fi hubs are positioned throughout the house, and the entire villa is air-conditioned. TGM Dreamliner inverter units serve the main living areas, while large Big Ass Haiku 84-inch fans in the family room, sitting room, and patio keep air flowing naturally. It works equally well as a full-time residence, a lock-up-and-leave home, or a remote-working base in the sun.

Outside, newly landscaped gardens surround the home with greenery without enclosing it. The pool and terrace feel private and calm, ideal for quiet afternoons or casual entertaining. Security has been well thought out, with electric gates, wrought iron detailing, cameras, motion sensors, and a remotely monitored alarm system.

Owners also have the option to join the Sunset Crest Beach Club, offering private beach access, an oceanfront pool, and easy access to the coast just minutes away.

Melograno delivers what many West Coast buyers are seeking but rarely find: a walkable Sandy Lane location, contemporary design, strong rental appeal, and a home that feels ready to enjoy from day one.
