Rifugio Cedar

Cedar Lodge is one of Bermuda’s most iconic and distinguished properties, a refined residence that blends historic charm, grand estate living, and modern comfort. This extraordinary home sits proudly atop a gracious sloping driveway off Harbour Road, on over 3 acres of beautifully manicured grounds which rise gently from Salt Kettle Bay, offering sweeping views across Hamilton Harbour.  The property’s desirable Paget Parish location provides the conveniences to all of life’s needs, while delivering distinction through its exceptional scale, setting, and enduring sense of place.

The property further benefits from 3 separate cottages of 1-3 bedrooms for guests, or additional family accommodation, nestled throughout the grounds.

The five-bedroom, 7.5-bathroom main house is designed in an elegant U-shape that gracefully wraps around a spacious, enclosed pool courtyard. A set of French doors from the grand entrance hallway/foyer open directly onto the pool and expansive entertainment terrace and can be viewed from the impressive games room, where the story has it that the snooker table was once played on by Sir Winston Churchill!   

Spanish Colonial style architecture is evident throughout, with generous proportions, high ceilings, rich character details, and a warm, inviting ambiance.

The main level includes a formal entrance hall, a large living room with fireplace, loggia, office/parlour, formal dining room with fireplace, powder room, two ensuite guest bedrooms, a bonus room and laundry, and the dramatic cedar-beamed games room with its own fireplace and bar. The spacious kitchen features a breakfast area for casual dining, while the east wing offers two additional ensuite bedrooms along with a secondary kitchen and its own sitting area.  

Upstairs, the large primary suite captures harbour views and opens onto a private veranda overlooking the pool and gardens.

The 3.5-acre Estate has water rights to the harbour and also features a tennis court and lifestyle amenities such as former horse stables (currently used as storage) and its own water catchment area. A dedicated and private right of way allows access on the south boundary of the property leading to Middle Road as a valuable additional amenity.  

 With its rare combination of heritage, acreage, and resort-style amenities, Cedar Lodge represents an unparalleled opportunity to own a true island landmark deserving of a new legacy, which is yours.
