Fair Capital LLC and Brue Baukol Capital Partners Announce New Private Residential Community, The Strand, Turks and Caicos, Opening Late 2021
The Strand to Debut as the Caribbean's Premier Residential Resort Community with 46 Luxury Oceanfront Residences and Marina on Protected Shoreline of Cooper Jack Bay
DENVER, Dec. 18, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Fair Capital LLC and Brue Baukol Capital Partners today announce The Strand, Turks and Caicos, a private residential community located on 2,230 feet of pristine shore frontage on Cooper Jack Bay. Offering owners and guests an exclusive, sophisticated hideaway in a relaxed coastal setting, The Strand will be the first of its kind on the island with a limited collection of luxury beachfront villas, custom residences, and homesites along with access to vibrant community programming and full resort amenities and services.
Opening late 2021, The Strand is a thoughtfully crafted private residential community in the heart of Cooper Jack Bay, an undeveloped, unspoiled stretch of coastline on the protected south side of Providenciales. Boasting shallow, crystal clear waters with a soft, white-sand bottom, Cooper Jack Bay is a hidden gem and an ideal location to create the Caribbean's next ultra-luxury residential resort.
"We are creating a sense of place here at The Strand that will be an entirely new experience in Turks and Caicos—authentic to the destination while delivering that delicate balance between privacy and connectivity with the understanding that people seek both," said John Fair, managing director of The Strand. "The resort is being thoughtfully developed to take full advantage of the island's natural panoramic beauty, while providing the detailed services and offerings that will set the stage for The Strand to become one of the most exclusive residential offerings in the Caribbean."
Location
The Strand will rest on a gentle slope atop a dramatic combination of iron shore and white sand beaches overlooking the endless turquoise waters of Turks and Caicos. Offering trophy views and direct ocean access from every residence while feeling like a hidden sanctuary, The Strand will blend the sublime natural beauty of its surroundings and unparalleled privacy with full-service amenities and experiences unique to its destination. In addition to the beachfront setting, the site has 1,400 feet of canal and marina frontage, offering a marina and slips for owners, as well as several community yacht slips.
Private Amenities via The Strand Owners' Club
With a limited selection of just 46 residences, The Strand is intimate in nature with a deep sense of solitude, yet will also bring people together in public gathering spaces with a lively atmosphere and true sense of community. Owners will enjoy a collection of shared amenities for sport and socializing with access to the Beach and Tennis Club, a concept which does not currently exist in Turks and Caicos, further creating opportunity for connectivity among owners and guests.
The dramatic water's edge restaurant and bar extends from an indoor covered space to an outdoor beachfront patio with tables dotting a lush open-air garden. The Beach Club further flows into the centerpiece resort-style swimming pool, designed as a lagoon surrounded by native limestone, towering palms and soft lighting at night. The restaurant and bar will allow limited public access, with priority seating given to club members and guests.
Cooper Jack Bay is perfectly located with access to the island's top sport fishing and diving and is ideal for swimming, paddle boarding, and various other water sports for active spirits. Additional water amenities include access to The Strand's own Club Boat with a private captain, catamarans, kayaks, paddleboards, and more. Additional community amenities include a tennis court, two pickle ball courts, and a state-of-the-art fitness center with a secluded yoga deck. Scheduled yoga and fitness classes will be available for owners and guests.
An on-site caretaker/resort manager is available 24/7 for owners' and guests' every need. Additional a la carte club services include in-home spa services, housekeeping, pre-arrival shopping, private chef and catering, airport transportation, landscape maintenance, and security.
Architecture and Design
Each of the 40 villas and residences and six custom homesites is perched above the water's edge with convenient access to the bay below, with ocean-facing bedrooms and uninterrupted views. The design-forward residences—in collaboration between RAD Architecture, Inc., Modus Operandi interior design, and KEITH landscape architecture —are being carefully hand-crafted to celebrate the island's laidback, relaxed lifestyle. A constant balance between casual elegance and carefree comfort, The Strand draws its sense of sophistication from a focus of clean, modern architecture. Refined spaces will incorporate the raw, natural beauty of the location with rustic, primitive materials and a reverence to detail. The architecturally distinctive residences also incorporate living elements such as native plants, water, and bright, open air spaces, allowing the outdoors to become part of the interior experience. Timeless hand craftsmanship, stone, wood, and hand plaster is the simple yet elegant palette.
The Villas – These turn-key two-bedroom villas are designed with lock-off units on separate levels, offering one and two-bedroom layouts. Each exotic villa will have its own plunge pool and outdoor shower and soaking tub. An optional rooftop terrace includes an open-air kitchen, bar, and dining space. The Villas will have more than 3,000 square feet of indoor-outdoor living space and are priced from $2.2 million (from $2.4 million with a rooftop terrace with kitchen).
Luxury Residences – These elegant four- and five-bedroom residences feature a dramatic two-story great room overlooking the pool and the Caicos Banks. The main house has four oceanfront en-suite bedrooms, a handcrafted infinity pool, and a lush courtyard with outdoor kitchen. Certain lots include a courtyard plunge pool and spa, one-bedroom guest house, and family/flex room. Each residence has a built-in overlook at the iron shore edge and a grotto beach. Luxury Residences start at approximately 4,500 square feet of enclosed space and 8,300 square feet of indoor-outdoor living space. They are priced from $6.8 million.
Grand Residences – These six-bedroom, seven-bathroom homes are the largest and most luxurious residences with approximately 7,300 square feet of enclosed space and 14,000 square feet of indoor-outdoor living space.

Owners will be able to fully customize the home and landscaping. There are three Grand Residences available, priced from $10 million.
Custom Homesites – Six oceanfront lots are set aside for custom homes, allowing owners the opportunity to build their own personalized Caribbean retreat in harmony with the breathtaking ocean views. Custom homesites start at $3.5 million and will each have more than 100 linear feet of Cooper Jack Bay coastline to the front and 100-foot yacht slip in the rear, making these lots—ranging from 0.7 to 1.28 acres—among the most unique offerings in the Caribbean.
With rich airlift and tax incentives, Turks and Caicos is an ideal choice for those seeking a second home island paradise. Long established as one of the most exclusive luxury destinations in North America, Turks and Caicos receives nonstop flight service from 12 major markets, including Atlanta, Boston, Charlotte, Chicago, Dallas, Ft. Lauderdale, Houston, Miami, Montreal, New York, Philadelphia, and Toronto.
Remote yet easily accessible, The Strand is located a short five-minute drive from the Leeward Highway, the main east-west thoroughfare through the island.
