Elmsbridge was established in 2008 by Brian and Kal Dobbin, bringing decades of international real estate and development experience to the Caribbean. Our work is rooted in a belief that homes should respect their natural surroundings while offering comfort, privacy, and long-term value for owners.

Brian began his career in Canada, developing major projects in both the construction and hospitality industries. After leading Newfound Developers and completing award-winning resorts in North America and Europe, Brian and Kal launched Elmsbridge to focus on premium communities in the Caribbean.

Since then, Elmsbridge has guided multiple landmark developments from concept to completion, including The Beach Houses and The Gardens, both recipients of International Property Awards for excellence in residential design. Alongside our sister company, Citizens International, we have also played a key role in integrating citizenship by investment with property ownership in Antigua and Barbuda.

With more than 30 years of experience and over 2 million square feet of construction overseen worldwide, the Elmsbridge team brings deep knowledge of design, construction, and sales to every project. From land acquisition to programming, branding, and property management, we control the full process, ensuring quality and consistency at every stage.

Our Ethos

At Elmsbridge, we believe a home should be more than a place to live. It should be a private retreat where you can gather with family and friends, a lasting investment, and a foundation for your future. Each of our communities is created with care, balancing privacy and natural beauty with access to amenities that support a healthy, connected lifestyle.

As a full-service developer, we manage every aspect of the process, from design and construction to furnishing and long-term management. Many of our homes also offer a path to citizenship, creating not only a beautiful residence but a secure investment.

01 Residential Design

We lead the design process from the first concept to the final plans. Our team works directly with architects, engineers and contractors to shape layouts, refine details and ensure each home is practical to build and appropriate for its site.

Each community has a curated finish palette that reflects its setting. We guide owners through choosing materials that are cohesive, durable and suited to life in Antigua, keeping the overall design vision intact.

Our furnishing packages are created to feel comfortable, cohesive and long lasting. We select pieces that work well in the Caribbean climate and prepare each home so it feels complete the moment you arrive.

Once selections are finalized, we manage all procurement with our established supplier network. We oversee ordering, shipping, customs and delivery to keep the process smooth and accurate.

Our in-house engineering and construction team oversees all contractor work, from structural and MEP to finishing. We focus on quality and delivery at every stage and provide clear, regular updates so owners can follow the progress of their home with confidence.

Our team handles the full on site installation. Every piece is placed as planned, every detail checked and the home is fully prepared for immediate use.

We support both our communities and external developments with a complete sales and marketing approach. Our team handles project positioning, marketing execution and the full sales process from first enquiry to final closing.

For third party projects, we provide strategic development support where it has the most impact. This includes site assessments, development planning, design programming and construction oversight informed by decades of experience.

Our principals have financed developments through public, private and equity-based models. We now co-invest with The Preserve Fund, offering structured options for individual or pooled investment.
