Sprawling Development Parcel in Greenwich Hill, St. Andrew

Perched high in the Blue and John Crow Mountains, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, this rare offering presents approximately 9.046 acres within the exclusive Greenwich Hill community. Located just past the historic army camp at Newcastle and sitting at just over 1,100 meters above sea level, the property occupies a cool, elevated setting historically developed as a “change of air” retreat. Greenwich Hill began as a collection of modest timber bungalows used as weekend retreats by those seeking relief from city heat and noise. Over time the area has seen thoughtful reinvestment, with several original cottages transformed into larger, architecturally designed residences that respond to the mountain context.

The land offers a range of possibilities for a buyer with vision: construct one or more cottages inspired by nearby Strawberry Hill, establish an organic orchard or cool-climate berry farm, cultivate ornamental plantings, or develop private residence(s) that take advantage of the serene mountain environment. Terrain, elevation, and the community context lend themselves to designs that celebrate natural views, breezes, and the area’s botanical potential.
