The brief

The reason to consider it.

If you’re seeking barefoot living with complete privacy in a truly rare location, this one-of-a-kind beach house offers an experience few even know exists. Tucked away on a pristine, untouched white-sandy beach in the quiet enclave of Freetown, Grand Bahama, this charming two-story retreat is the kind of secret only shared by those with true local insight. Off the beaten path and entirely off-grid, this sanctuary provides a level of peace and seclusion that’s nearly impossible to find—yet unforgettable once discovered. Upstairs, a sunlit open-concept layout features three bedrooms, two modern bathrooms, a spacious kitchen and lounge. Step out onto a vast, sun-drenched deck—perfect for soaking in panoramic ocean views, swaying in a hammock, or dining under the stars. Downstairs, a fully self-contained studio apartment offers flexible space for guests, rental income, or extended family, complete with its own laundry room. Thoughtfully designed, this eco-friendly retreat is solar-powered with a freshwater well. This is island living at its best—easy, peaceful and private.

What people say about Bahamas

Sources agree that foreigners can own Bahamian property outright and that an ordinary home purchase needs a registration filing through a Bahamian lawyer, not a discretionary permit.

  • Positive Foreign buyers mostly register rather than seek a permit; permit applies to large or commercial land
  • Mixed Closing costs are dominated by a 10% transfer VAT for foreign buyers, usually split with the seller, plus legal fees
  • Mixed Annual property tax is being reshaped in 2026 (new foreign owner-occupied category), and Bahamian realtors dispute fairness
  • Concern Vacant land owned by foreigners carries a notably heavier tax until built on
