Virgin Gorda - Whale Bay

About Whale Rock House

Beautifully Crafted Oceanfront Estate in Whale Bay

  .

Set in the highly sought-after enclave of Whale Bay, this exceptional estate emphasizes privacy, natural beauty, and thoughtful design. The community’s private roads follow the contours of the land, ensuring generous space between homes and preserving the area’s serene, unspoiled character. Designed after months of living on-site to observe sun, wind, and views, the home’s orientation and architectural details reflect a deep understanding of its surroundings. The result is a residence that feels perfectly placed—shielded, comfortable, and open to the sea.

 .

Situated on over two acres directly facing the ocean, the property offers 3 bedrooms and 3.5 baths, a freeform swimming pool with rock-lined fountain, an oversized garage, a two-vehicle carport, and a generator/utilities building. Two substantial concrete cisterns collect rainwater from the roof, and the well-regarded local Cromaglass system manages wastewater. For those seeking additional space, the expansive lot provides ample room for construction of further accommodation.

 .

Crafted for longevity, the home is built entirely of heavily reinforced concrete—roof and walls—some of which incorporate natural boulders in place. The plastered concrete ceilings gently curve to follow the roofline, adding both strength and style. Solid mahogany doors and shutters with Rocky Mountain bronze hardware secure the openings. The master bedroom and study feature rich Ipe hardwood flooring, while the remaining rooms are finished in porcelain tile, custom-cut around natural stone formations. Areas where moisture is expected transition to imported flagstone for added safety and comfort.

  .

The guest house includes a convenient mini-kitchen. Abundant ceiling fans throughout, including in bathrooms, pair with steady ocean breezes to maintain comfortable temperatures without reliance on air-conditioning. Unique artistic touches include a bespoke ceramic wall mosaic by a California ceramicist in the powder room and glass vessel sinks that complement the surrounding seascape. Mosaiced fountains at the main entry and guesthouse garden add subtle points of interest.

  .

Though just a short walk from The Baths, the home is completely private and hidden from public view. A shaded carport and welcoming pathway lead to the front gate; beyond it, the house opens toward sweeping ocean vistas. Thoughtfully angled wings shelter the terrace, and frame panoramic views of the deep, shaded porch, the pool, and the dramatic boulder-strewn shoreline. No neighboring homes interrupt the landscape—or the quiet.

  .

A final delight: on a moonlit night, approach the home from the private road to see its sculpted roofline echo the iconic boulders of Virgin Gorda.
