Accessed by a narrow path, through the dense island vegetation, sits this 5 bedroom, 4 bath hilltop home over looking the Sea of Abaco. Built in 2010, this Bahamian style cottage features 2,400 square feet of interior space, opening to 1,100 square feet of wooden decks.
With vaulted ceilings throughout, the open plan kitchen and living area is cool and bright, and overflows onto the wide entertaining porch through impact-rated sliding doors. Each of the three bedrooms on this level opens to the surrounding decks, and enjoys spectacular panoramic views over the island landscape, the Sea of Abaco, and Atlantic Ocean.
The master suite features a private balcony on the Atlantic side, and sliding doors on either side of the room that allow the cooling sea breezes to flow through.
On the lower level of the home, accessed by stairs off of the main porch, is an additional two bedrooms and a shared bath. Currently used as an artist’s studio, one of these rooms features built-in shelving and storage and could also serve as a home office or gym. In addition to the main level pantry with stacking washer and dryer, on the lower level there is a laundry room with full size washer and dryer which also accommodates additional storage and workshop.
A wooden boardwalk meanders from the house, down the shoreline, to the Sea of Abaco and dock. Offering more than 6 feet of depth at low tide, the dock can accommodate multiple vessels up to 60 feet, with plenty of room for installation of a boat lift.
Additional amenities include dedicated beach access, large capacity icemaker, 12,000 gallon fresh water storage, and portable backup generator.
Due to its sturdy construction, this home survived Hurricane Dorian with only minor damage. Â Repairs are currently underway, and the offering will now include a new generator and new dock.
