Cockade House, St. Thomas – Theatre design meets architecture

A private estate sitting on 5.5 acres of land and located east of the esteemed Sandy Lane Estate, Cockade House is an original plantation house completely refurbished by the current owners. Cockade House boasts a charming eccentricity in design owing to its total re-design in the 1970’s by the famed theatre stage designer, Oliver Messel.

Surrounded by the perfectly manicured lands of Sandy Lane, Cockade House looks over a professionally laid cricket pitch and pavilion, frequently used by a local Cricket Academy. The main house retains the Palladian style of Messel’s vision, with 7 beds, 7 baths and formal entertaining areas.
