Audited financials are available for review under NDA with a bona fide binding offer to purchase.

OCCUPANCY The villa enjoys rentals throughout the year with the greatest concentration in the high season and the holiday periods. Overall occupancy varies from year to year due to fluctuations in the economy and overall tourism. On average, the villa has between 20 and 24 rentals per year with the 42 as the greatest number and 15 being the lowest number.

L O C AT I O N VILLA CASTELLAMONTE is located in a secure, gated community named Orchid Bay Estates. Orchid Bay is a small community yet contains many of the most magnificent homes along the north coast of the Dominican Republic. Many of these homes are provided as vacation rentals to discerning clientele from around the world when the owners are not in residence.

Orchid Bay Estates (www.orchidbay.com) contains twelve (12) villas of various sizes, yet most of them are exceptionally large and luxurious, and an additional ten (12) properties already owned and ready for development. The community encompasses three pristine golden sand beaches, one of which is adjacent to Villa Castellamonte. The community is located within the town of Cabrera (www.gocabrera.com), a quaint rural oceanfront town.

Due to the topography of the island, VILLA CASTELLAMONTE is facing due east which helps it to enjoy the prevailing (and nearly constant) east-west trade winds‌the same winds which brought Christopher Columbus to these very shores.

Rancho Monte RANCHO MONTE ALEGRE With mild yearlong temperatures, rolling valleys, majestic mountains and an endless stretch of the sea, SANTA

BARBARA is the perfect

place to call home. It is no wonder this classy city is referred to as

“The American Riviera.”

04 - RPLG

Alegre

by Jaclyn Ritter

Just ten minutes from Santa Barbara is Rancho Monte Alegre. This expansive property is one of the last pristine, expansive pieces of land remaining on the California central coast. Minutes from the city, Rancho Monte Alegre offers a country feel while never being far from the happenings of the city. This nestled and natural piece of land brings a new meaning to the word picturesque. The Santa Ynez Mountains and the Pacific Ocean create the perfect backdrop from any window of the house. With miles of private hiking and horse trails, you can explore the 2,800 acres of permanent nature preserve, refreshing creeks and waterfalls, and conclude the day picking fresh produce for dinner from your very own orchards.

The proximity to Santa Barbara is one of Rancho Monte Alegre’s best attributes. Originally under Spanish rule, agriculture and ranching was the primary focus during the mid 1800’s. After the Civil War, Santa Barbara witnessed a dramatic change. This little city that relied so much on the land and their crops, became vibrant community. As people flooded the area, the city’s charm intensified.

The mild temperatures and never-ending sunshine lend itself to grow the best fruit and vegetables the land has to offer. With fresh avocados, eggplants, squash, figs, pears, melons and much more, it is no wonder Santa Barbara is any food and wine critics’ playground. Some of the best chefs can be found in Santa Barbara, showcasing what they know best – great food! California’s great pinots and chardonnays are not the only pairings for these mouth-watering dishes. These award-winning restaurants are known for their fresh fruit sangrias and herb-infused cocktails. Locals and tourists alike look forward to the month of October when culinary greatness is on display. This 31-day festival honors and showcases the best of the best when it comes to Santa Barbara food and wine.

Enjoy the outdoors at one of Santa Barbara’s 50 public parks and picnic areas. Scuba dive, paddleboard or kayak along its miles of sparkling beaches. Not a beach-goer? Take a hike to the hot springs of Gabiota Peak or rock climb “The Y” at San Ysidro Canyon. For the National Geographic lovers, Channel Islands National Park is a string of 5 uninhabited islands that is home to unique plants and animals that cannot be seen anywhere else on Earth. Interested in a game of polo? Visit the Santa Barbara Polo and Racquet Club, where the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge stopped to play a round during their 2011 visit. Santa Barbara also offers many world-class golf courses with the most pristine fairways that would inspire any avid golfer.

Rancho Monte Alegre is located in one of the nation’s most beautiful hideaways. With Santa Barbara just minutes away, the high end shopping, 5 star cuisine, meticulous beaches and thrill seeking adventures are never far. But at Rancho Monte Alegre, burrowed between the mountains and the sea, you are truly home.

Lonesome Ridge AT LONESOME VALLEY, CASHIERS, NORTH CAROLINA

06 - RPLG

B

efore Cashiers developed into the quaint mountain village that it is today, the Cherokee knew this plateau at 3,500 feet as a cool, lush campground that figured prominently in their seasonal migrations.

Many others have since discovered the natural wonders of this temperate forest nestled high upon the ancient slopes of the Blue Ridge Escarpment.

Bisected by the Eastern Continental Divide and protected by thousands of surrounding acres of the Nantahala National Forest, Cashiers is cherished as a unique mountain destination offering nationally ranked golf courses, award winning restaurants, many notable communities and charming antique shops.

Current development is balanced with hundreds of miles of hiking trails and fly fishing streams, countless waterfalls, magnificent granite faces, and enough adventure to satisfy any outdoor enthusiast.

Cashiers is located in southwestern North Carolina, in the southern Appalachian Mountains, just north of the common boundary point of North Carolina, Georgia and South Carolina. Driving time is within three hours of Atlanta, Charlotte, Chattanooga, Augusta and Columbia and less than five hours from Knoxville and Birmingham. Nearby airports include Asheville (1.25 hours), Greenville (1.75 hours), Atlanta (3 hours) and Charlotte (3 hours).

Just two miles east of the center of Cashiers, Lonesome Valley enjoys a rich history dating back to 1895 when E.H. Jennings acquired over 35,000 acres in the mountains of western North Carolina. Following the development of several prestigious inns along regional lakes, the Jennings family retained 800 acres of the original holdings as their own private retreat. In 2004 the family decided to invite other families and friends to share their mountain cove, affectionately known as Lonesome Valley. And so this vibrant community began.

Founded upon the principles of true conservation, Lonesome Valley successfully blends thoughtful development with the protection of its vast natural resources. Over one third of the Valley is forever preserved as common green space, utilizing stream corridors, meadows and forests as natural buffers between generously sized estates. With sufficient golf and traditional country club amenities offered by other area communities, Lonesome Valley has instead focused on hiking, fishing, boating, swimming and other nature-based, family-friendly activities. Simplicity, rest and recreation combine with fine dining (at Canyon Kitchen with James Beard Award Finalist, Chef John Fleer) and festive gatherings to create the ethos of this community. Based on the enduring commitment to purposeful excellence established five generations ago, Lonesome Valley will continue to provide joyful family memories for generations to come.

Lonesome Valley is framed by Cow Rock Mountain and Laurel Knob along with other ridges that form the largest box canyon in the East. At 4,200 feet atop Cow Rock Mountain exists Lonesome Ridge, a 90+ acre park-like estate overlooking the valley below. With unsurpassed vistas in every direction, flat and gently sloping topography, paved roads and utilities already established, and several well groomed homesites, this estate can be preserved as a single large tract or subdivided into as many as six individual parcels.

Several trails link a variety of viewing decks, wildflower meadows, picnic and gaming areas on manicured lawns along with walking connections to Lonesome Valley to the west and Panthertown Valley to the northeast.

Panthertown Valley, comprising over six thousand acres of Nantahala National Forest, is known as the “Yosemite of the East” with its signature granite faces, trout streams and miles of trails for hiking and mountain biking.

Lonesome Ridge is a pinnacle property with exceptional characteristics, providing unique opportunities to invest in family, friends and the future.

BOULDER WRITTEN BY B. B. SMITH

O

ne of the most affluent communities in Colorado, Boulder is picturesquely nestled into a wide basin at the foot of Flagstaff Mountain, right at the point where the Rockies meet the Great Plains. It’s just a few miles east of the Continental Divide.

AN EXCITING YOUTHFUL CITY, BOULDER CONSISTENTLY RANKS AT OR NEAR THE TOP IN HEALTH, WELL BEING, QUALITY OF LIFE, EDUCATION AND ART. THANKS TO THE PRESENCE OF THE UNIVERSITY OF COLORADO, THE AVERAGE AGE IS 29 (NATIONALLY IT’S 35+).

Actually Boulder has too many accolades to list. Just a few include #1 – Ten Happiest Cities (Moneywatch.bnet.com); #1 - Top Brainiest Cities (Portfolio.com); #1 - Best Cities to Raise an Outdoor Kid (Backpacker magazine); #1 – Most Educated City (Forbes magazine); #1 –Top Triathlon Town (Inside Triathlon magazine) and #1 – American’s Foodiest Town.

It is, other polls say, in the Top Ten of “Best Cities for the Next Decade,” “Top 100 Places to Live,” “Top Arts Destinations for a Small City,” “Most Bicycle Friendly Cities in the World,” “Best Green Places to Live,” “Top Farmers Markets” and “Top 10 Cities for Artists.”

The great outdoors is so close and so magnificent; it’s hard to stay inside.

Boulder is surrounded by more than 36,000 acres of recreational open space, conservation easements and nature preserves. Just to the west are the Flatirons, imposing tilted slabs of sedimentary stone that have become a widely recognized symbol of the city, just as Wright Kingdom Real Estate is recognized as Boulder’s top realty firm.

World-class hikers, bikers and rock climbers are common on the more challenging trails and canyons, especially during the USA Ultimate.

Boulder is also headquarters for USA Rugby. The annual Bolder Boulder run attracts over 50,000 runners, joggers, walkers and wheelchair racers, making it one of the largest road races in the world — with, incidentally, the largest non-marathon prize purse in road racing. Held on Memorial Day, it has also earned the distinction of being one of largest celebrations of this day in the nation.

One count showed Boulder has as many bicycles as it does citizens. In fact, so many people bike to and from work in Boulder, the city sometime snow plows the bike paths before they plow the streets!

The city is named for tranquil Boulder Creek, so-called for the huge chunks of granite that cascaded into the creek over the eons.

hour period following specific guidelines — has brought Boulder many accolades, including Best Local Film Festival, Best New Festival and Best Festival.

The larger more conventional Boulder International Film Festival has, since it’s inception in 2004, hosted over 150 filmmakers from across the globe, including Chevy Chase.

Speaking of celebrities, Scott Carpenter was born in Boulder, as were Kristin Davis, Tony Boselli and Leon White, better known as “Big Van Vadar.”

Carpenter named his space capsule after his home on Aurora and 7th.

The capsule was Aurora 7.

Boulder was the setting for Mork & Mindy, Sleeper, Make It or Break It and Stephen King’s book, The Stand. King lived in Boulder while writing The Shining.

With affluent residents, explain the Wright Kingdom real estate agents, come all the exciting sophisticated and/or fun amenities that they demand. Excellence in schools, shopping, entertainment, arts and culture are a criteria easily met in Boulder.

One of the most popular sections of Boulder is the famous Pearl Street Mall, filled with exciting wares and hopping restaurants and nightlife.

Famous blues musician Otis Taylor makes Boulder his home.

In 1967, Boulder became the first city in the United States to tax itself for funds to be used specifically for the acquisition, management and maintenance of Open Space.

“GO GREEN”

IS MORE THAN JUST A SLOGAN FOR BOULDER. Just so you’ll know, you need a permit to exterminate a prairie dog in Boulder. This is the kind of “insider” information Wright Kingdom agents are able to supply, to help new potential luxury homeowners make the right choice in the right neighborhood. More than 90 Wright Kingdom Realtors are available, with an average of 17 years specializing in Boulder properties and lifestyles.

Wright Kingdom Real Estate has earned the Website Quality Certification (WQC), presented by Leading Real Estate Companies of the World.

GARY DEPERSIA OF CORCORAN GROUP REAL ESTATE

The Hamptons Luxury Real Estate Market Specialist

O

n the East End since 1995, starting with the legendary Allan Schneider Associates, now The Corcoran Group, Gary DePersia has participated in nearly $2 billion of real estate transactions. With hundreds of his exclusive listings sold and closed as well as matching hundreds of his own buyers and renters with the right properties, Gary’s almost 20 years in the Hamptons luxury real estate market has generated benchmark sales.

Gary was the listing broker on the highest priced land sale in Bridgehampton South ($37.5M in 2007); the listing broker on the highest priced residential sale North of the Highway in East Hampton ($12.5M in 2009); and the selling broker for the most expensive single family residence sale north of the highway and off the water in the Hamptons ($20M+ in 2005). Gary was also the listing and selling broker for the 55acre waterfront oasis Tyndal Point in Sag Harbor’s North Haven. At $36 million, it was the highest price residential sale ever north of the highway, plus the largest transaction for 2011, on the East End. Consistently ranked among the top producers in the Hamptons for the last 15 years, and a year-on-year member of The Corcoran Group President’s Council, in 2008 he was Corcoran’s top broker on the East End by sales volume and rental units. Gary was also ranked as the nation’s 4th top broker by sales volume with over $202 million worth of transactions in The Wall Street Journal and REAL Trends 2008 list of Top 250 real estate professionals. Qualifying as a national list maker since 2007, in 2014 he was again in the top tier with nearly $200 million of real estate transactions.

Gary realized early on the importance of deep local knowledge and the benefits of expert marketing other brokers have come to follow and emulate. Knowing each buyer or renter has their own idea of what and where their Hamptons experience should be, he is well-versed on the inventory of each village and hamlet. His office operates with four licensed assistants allowing him to build a business stretching from Southampton to Montauk and Sagaponack to Shelter Island. Gary is as comfortable assisting renters to find a modest summer cottage as he is showing off one of his spectacular multi-million dollar listings. His deep experience, affable nature and energized style make him a favorite of NYC and out of area brokers who want to refer their clients to a knowledgeable Hamptons realtor who truly cares about client service.

A strong believer in rewarding the confidence of those who have listed their properties with him, Gary is the East End’s most prolific advertiser. His exclusive listings are found regularly print and online in local, national, and international media. A role model in the use of cutting-edge marketing tools, he was the first Hamptons broker with his own personal website myhamptonhomes.com and broad use of social media.

An intrinsic and inimitable ambassador for Hamptons luxury real estate, Gary has regularly guided television viewers around the area’s finest homes appearing on NBC TV Open House NYC, CBS TV Living Large and the PBS series “Best Places to Live”. He is also tapped by top news media for his expert market views and exceptional listings.

Rare but quality downtime includes skiing in Aspen or heli-skiing the Selkirk-Monashee Mountains in British Columbia; windsurfing the waters of the Hamptons or St. Thomas, where he has a home overlooking Great Bay and St. Johns.

The Tower building, to its right, offers storage, bathroom facilities, a 4 bay garage and an office above which overlooks the harbor. A small multi-use building sits just behind.

Islip/Babylon WRITTEN BY B. B. SMITH

F

ew urban suburbs can boast ocean beaches, sparkling bays, historic villages, architectural treasures and beautiful vistas of lakes, canals, ponds and forest fields.

Islip and Babylon in Suffolk County, New York, are among the very fortunate few, according to Jim A. Netter of Netter Real Estate, premier Long Island property brokers. No wonder Suffolk was listed by Forbes Magazine as the fourth richest county in America.

Stretching northeast into the Atlantic Ocean, Long Island’s exquisite Suffolk County residential communities enjoy the same treasured settings as the area’s original settlers from Suffolk County in England.

Ironically that name means “southern people” (as opposed to the northern folks of “Norfolk). Attracted by the area’s temperate weather, abundant clean water and rich soil, these early settlers quickly gained a strong reputation as farmers extraordinaire — even for tulips and dahlia bulbs in Babylon. Within Suffolk County are more lighthouses than are found in any other county in the nation, with 15 of the original 26 still standing.

Islip was named for its founder’s English homeland, Islip, just north of Oxford, the birthplace of Edward the Confessor. One guess at the name’s origin is “slippery hill.” Located on Long Island’s south shore, Islip was home to Jacob Ockers, the internationally known “Oyster King” at the turn of the century, and his home is on the National Register of Historic Places. Ockers’ Blue Point Oyster Company brought such renown to the area, New York State passed a law forbidding any oysters to be called “Bluepoints” unless they came from the Great South Bay. Until around 1915, Islip streets were paved using oyster shells.

The 2.41 square-mile city of Babylon owes its unusual name to the mother of early settler Nathaniel Conklin who, in 1803, moved “to the hills” to what is now East Main St. at Deer Park Ave, a site now on the National Register of Historic Places. One story says his mother picked the name Babylon because she didn’t want to live there. Probably the name became even more appropriate in her eyes when she learned next door would be the American Hotel and Tavern. Ancient Babylon’s name was perhaps 56 - RPLG

an adaption an ancient Akkadian word for “Gateway of God” or the Hebrew word for “confusing” or “to confuse.”

Walt Whitman once taught school in Babylon, but charges were brought against him and some of his students for “rowdy behavior” by the farmer who owned the land where the new King Kullen stands on Merrick Road.

In the ‘20s and ‘30s, Babylon was as popular a resort for the rich and famous as the Hamptons are today. Fred and Adele Astaire were among the celebrities as was Rudolph Valentino whose movie “Vitagraph” used what is now Farmingdale Road (Route 109) for a chase scene.

Among the Babylon historical treasures are its town hall, the Nathaniel Conklin House, Sisters of St. Dominic Motherhouse Complex and the Frank W. Smith House.

Islip visitor George Washington stayed in Sagtikos Manor in West Bay Shore, one of the many mansions built by wealthy summer visitors from NYC. William K. Vanderbilt’s estate is now Dowling College. Singer Sewing Machine magnate Admiral Bourne’s home is now St. John’s University.

Eight nearby national wildlife refuges testify to the area’s appreciation of its natural resources. Its outer barrier beaches and hundreds of square miles of waterways have resulted in a longtime history of maritime surveillance and protection.

As one of the nation’s richest counties and one of the original Province of New York’s original counties, Suffolk offers its ten towns — including Babylon and Islip — the high level of amenities demanded by those who can afford the very best in lower and higher education, entertainment, cuisine, shopping, arts and culture.

An insider’s expertise is invaluable when searching for just the right luxury home. This is what Jim Netter’s expert team offers prospective homeowners in the Islip and Babylon areas. Personal attention, professional expertise beyond compare and state of the art real estate technology are the elements that have made this one-founder, one-owner company the goto resource for the perfect home in the perfect neighborhood.

TIR NA NOG – AN EXCEPTIONAL BEACH FRONT RETREAT ELEUTHERA, BAHAMAS

Welcome to Tir Na Nog, an exclusive and enchanting private estate near the historic town of Governors Harbour, Eleuthera, a place where the legend of “The Land of the Ever Young” can come to reality. Here the flowers bloom all year-round against the backdrop of fabulous views of the Atlantic Ocean, casting their scents within the peace and serenity of the 10 acre gardens and walkways. Tir Na Nog is located in the most sought after location in Eleuthera, the Atlantic seashore on Banks Road, where there are a select number of Estates overlooking an amazing beach and only minutes from nearby restaurants and the charming Village of Governors Harbour. At Tir Na Nog your senses will be indulged. Interiors were recently renovated and designed by the gracious David Flint-Wood, co-author of “Island Style,” a wonderful book of what Island Life is. Applying the very flair that made the Island Style decor renowned, he used simple wood and white linens, organic materials, soft lighting and tropical touches warm and soothing to the senses.

THE LAND 10 acres of coconut lined rolling dunes and pathways lead to one of the most fabulous beaches you have ever seen. Stroll the miles long beach; stop in at Tippy’s restaurant for a cool drink or a bite. Lounge in the sun, in the hammocks strung in the coconut grove or under the beachfront gazebo. Covered with coconut trees and a variety of fruit trees, there is always something to pick and eat.

THE HOME Tir Na Nog offers a very special set-up unknown in most places in The Bahamas. The “home” is actually 4 Cottages of brilliant design. The main one is home to the living areas complete with a beautiful kitchen, and living and dining area with high cathedral ceilings and dark wood floors.

There is a covered balcony on either side of the main house with one side overlooking the tennis court. Across the driveway is the main bedroom house complete with a beautiful covered veranda with three large bedrooms all decorated with a similar feel to the main house. Towards the ocean are two self-contained, one-bedroom cottages with an amazing view out over the palms and the beach beyond. These five bedrooms all have private entrances and en suite baths. Three bedrooms are located in a house across from the dining hall. They are private and tranquil with exquisite furnishings in the simple Island Style - crisp and refined. Two additional bedrooms are separate bungalows with private decks overlooking the coconut grove, and the shades of the crystalline of the beach and the azure of the Atlantic. Situated above the tennis courts with sweeping views of the estate and the sea, the living and dining room is a gathering place for all for fine dining, relaxation and entertaining. Outdoor grilling and dining is an option on the Northern deck, with upper deck for even fuller views and very much a retreat.
