Luxury Real Estate

By Kieran Kelly of Cluttons Barbados

The England and Manchester United star and wife Coleen have decided on the Caribbean mansion after recommendations from a number for celebrity friends who have also purchased a luxury home at Royal Westmoreland, Barbados. Many English newspapers have reported that Royal Westmoreland has owners such as Wayne & Coleen Rooney, Joe Calzaghe, Ian Woosnam, Gary Lineker, Ashley & Cheryl Cole, Rio Ferdinand, Steve McLaren, Mike Gatting, Ant & Dec, Michael Vaughan, Andrew Flintoff and Kevin Pietersen, to name only a few of the more well known.

Wayne and wife Coleen chose their property — on the exclusive golfing estate in Barbados — from architect’s drawings. It has seven bedrooms, a cinema, swimming pool, Jacuzzi and a gym designed by Wayne. In addition Wayne, 23, and Coleen, 22, are installing a £35,000 security system before moving in on the 750-acre Royal Westmoreland Estate.

The villa overlooks a golf course and celebrities’ hideaway "Mullin’s Beach" on the Platinum West Coast of the island.

Kieran Kelly, Chairman of Cluttons Barbados, www.cluttonsbarbados.com, exclusive agents for Royal Westmoreland, was unable to comment, however did confirm that Royal Westmoreland is a very popular golfing estate for celebrities. Many of our clients are extremely wealthy or of celebrity status and Barbados and especially Royal Westmoreland is a "safe haven" to escape from the paparazzi and enjoy the luxuries related to owning a multi million pound home on one of the best golfing estates in the world. It is fantastic that Royal Westmoreland has proven so popular as the resort owner and developer John Morphet has invested heavily to ensure his owners have the finest homes, championship golf course, facilities, security and amenities. Cluttons Barbados is extremely proud to be involved with the property sales of Royal Westmoreland.
