Property Details

Set on the front line of the historic Holders Polo Field and surrounded by over 75 acres of protected countryside, Buttsbury Court offers one of the most exceptional and private settings in Barbados, a rarity on the island unless you live on the edge of a golf course. With no adjacent neighbours and no overlooking, it delivers peaceful seclusion while sitting just two minutes from the Caribbean Sea.

Originally built in the 1960s as three separate dwellings, the estate has been completely reimagined by the British design house Bonham & Bonham, renowned for their architectural craftsmanship and bespoke cabinetry. Today, those once-disconnected structures have been unified into a single, flowing home, a seamless fusion of English precision and Caribbean rhythm; an estate that finally belongs to itself.

Spanning approximately 5,700 sq ft of interiors within 28,100 sq ft of landscaped grounds, the villa is anchored by a spectacular light-filled atrium dining hall, created from the original courtyard and transformed by a solar-efficient daylight roof. The open-plan living and dining areas spill out to shaded terraces overlooking the polo field, framed by Strada Starburst chandeliers, GP & J Baker acoustic wall panels, and Minoli Italian porcelain flooring.

At the centre of the home is a chef’s kitchen crafted by Bonham & Bonham in England, complete with Corian work surfaces, a full suite of KitchenAid and Smeg appliances, twin ovens, a wine cooler, an ice machine, and a statement Arturo Alvarez lighting cluster above the island. This is a kitchen designed for gathering, entertaining, and enjoying island life.

The main house features three Super King en-suite bedrooms, each with walk-in dressing rooms, bespoke cabinetry, Elitis Paris wallcoverings, and bathrooms by Riluxa Italia with Hansgrohe fittings. A detached guest cottage offers a fourth Super King suite with its own terrace, kitchenette, and dual bathrooms ideal for guests or as an alternative master suite. Planning approval exists for a fifth bedroom suite and an additional pool, offering future owners room to expand.

Outdoors, the villa flows into landscaped gardens, a fully equipped pool bar, furnished terraces, and a music-responsive illuminated pool. The majestic Banyan tree positioned behind the main water feature, anchors the garden and offers a spectacular natural focal point. Comfort is enhanced by automated gates, app-based security cameras, ducted air-conditioning, and smart irrigation systems.

With front-row seats to the island’s polo season, a prestigious sporting heritage, and immediate access to Holetown’s fine dining and beaches, Buttsbury Court is equally suited as a private family retreat or a high-performing rental property during Barbados’ celebrated social and sporting calendar.
