St. James.
A cleared, freehold corner parcel on New Road — 474.8 square metres in a district where freehold land rarely reaches the open market.
The parcel
Every boundary here is a recorded measurement.
This plan is redrawn from the certified survey — the same bearings and distances lodged with the plan, not an artist’s impression. The western line runs 16.09 m along the New Road frontage. The eastern edge follows Bourne’s Ravine, pegged post by post across thirteen fence posts. Walk the figures around the perimeter and they close on 474.8 square metres.

The district
St. James does not go quiet.
You are minutes from the Western Main Road in one direction and the residential calm of Diego Martin in the other — which is exactly why land here holds value whether you build to live in it or build to rent it.
Policed since 1890
The Police Academy has trained officers from the historic St. James Barracks on the Western Main Road since 1890 — the oldest government building still in active use in the country, and a settled institutional presence right at the top of the district.
The Regiment’s home ground
Camp Ogden on Long Circular Road has housed the 1st Battalion of the Trinidad and Tobago Regiment for decades. Between the barracks and the academy, this corner of St. James has never been short of a uniformed presence.
Federation Park next door
Built for West Indies Federation delegates and now one of Port of Spain’s most established addresses, Federation Park runs directly along the district’s eastern edge — the kind of neighbour that anchors land values.
Shopping at your corner
Long Circular Mall — the country’s first fully enclosed, air-conditioned shopping centre — sits a few minutes away on Long Circular Road, alongside the banks, pharmacies and food strip that run the length of the Western Main Road.
Cricket at the Oval
Queen’s Park Oval is a short drive: Test matches, CPL nights, and the steady demand for short-term rental that comes with them.
Schools within reach
Fatima College and King George V Park both sit inside the usual school-run radius — part of why families keep choosing this corridor over the alternatives.
Into town in minutes
Port of Spain is a straightforward commute, without paying Port of Spain land prices to get there.
Carnival on your doorstep
The St. James strip runs all season. For a rental holding, that is a fixed annual peak you can count on.
On price
Comparable corner lots in St. James and Diego Martin have been listed between TT$2.4M and TT$2.5M. This one is at TT$900,000 — roughly US$132,900 — because the owner wants it sold, not marketed.
On tenure
Freehold land rarely reaches the open market in St. James — most parcels are leasehold, state land, or held within families for generations. When freehold title does come up, it tends not to stay listed for long.
