Mahogany Inn is a historic, well maintained commercial complex in the heart of Christiansted just one block from the Christiansted Historic National Park. Current owner made vast improvements to this property which houses a restaurant in the courtyard, offices upstairs, the Fritz Henley art studio, as well as an inner-courtyard of professional suites and 4 Company Street retail shops. Mentioned in the 1747 Danish building code, much of the Danish Colonial charm is retained throughout. The property enjoys the ability to house offices and retail establishments with the conveniences of today, in a beautiful colonial-era setting that is unmatched in the US Virgin Islands. See supplement and documents for more information. Mahogany Inn, a 250-year old "small in town great house" and National Historic Site in the heart of charming downtown Christiansted, is a rare investment opportunity for the discerning buyer. Where Danish and Island families once lived, horse drawn carriages traversed, and commerce was conducted on the street level spaces, a tasteful commercial complex now gives opportunity for modern offices in a charming Danish Colonial setting. The original cookhouse is located at the rear of the courtyard, shaded by the large Mahogany tree, each of the substantial arches housing restaurant seating once housed a carriage. To this day, a long hook hangs in the entrance which was used to pull down burning thatch if the roofs caught fire. A tombstone situated in the third archway commemorates Ruth Hugh and her daughter, Mrs. Anne Furey, both families owned the house in the 1800's. D. Hamilton Jackson, esteemed Crucian labor leader, purchased the home from the Fureys. Renamed the Mahogany Inn in 1958, when the first restaurant on this site was opened, the area now designed for office space were hotel rooms, and the newer offices in the rear cover where once was a swimming pool and now is an underground cistern. Mahogany Inn offers a new owner unlimited opportunity to enhance and preserve the rich and invaluable ambiance of St. Croix's colorful heritage.
