Social & Environment Initiatives

Around the times of pirates and pillaging, the property was known as Stonehenge, so named for a clump of large stones resembling the ancient Druid structure in England withing view of the house in the sea. The house was renovated around 1930 to become the Italianate villa of tremendous proportions that it is today.

Many celebrities, royal, political, and glamorous, have lived in the villa over its fascinating history. From British Admiralty to the Greek Royal Family during World War II; diamond magnates to Jan Smuts, founder of the League of Nations, state president of the United Party prior to the apartheid years and friend and advisor to Sir Winston Churchill.
