The Old Battery is a stunning way of spending your free time, somewhere in the heart of Bermuda, where a 4.5-acre stretch of land shows off a charming mansion, along with two self-contained cottages, dubbed as the Powder Keg and the Bluebird cottage. If you were looking for the best vacation spot, we are offering you something even better, the chance of owning the perfect vacation home.
Currently on the market for a cool $23 million, this massive estate benefits from nine bedrooms, nine baths and two partial baths. Once you get past its doors, this home will amaze you; who wouldn’t be impressed, considering the ground floor’s layout, two-storey high living room and dazzling Palladian staircase?
I’m sure future owners of this beauty will appreciate the cedar panelled bar as well, the powder room or the wine cellar.
There’s even more to discuss, and probably more to be enjoyed, but no text or description will ever get even close to one’s experiences; I will, however, try. The second floor includes a wonderful romantic dining room, with a high ceiling and rural-looking drapery, while the kitchen boasts a chic white theme, complemented by wooden chairs or fresh green table and chairs.
The remaining rooms of the house put out a 1970’s and 80’s vibe, while the glamorous master bathroom will take up more time than expected. There’s glitter specks in the wall, a Gothic-looking octagonal mirror, as well as an oval Jacuzzi complemented by a charming decor.
I would rather spend my time outside though, considering the white, sandy beach and the kidney-shaped vanishing-edge pool. $23 million may sound like a lot of money, but nothing can compare to waking up in this home.
