The brief

The reason to consider it.

Embrace this rare opportunity to own two homes on over half an acre in coveted Skyline Heights! Located between the lake and beautiful Cable Beach, this property is steeped in artistic history, created by famous architect Henry Malik and later home to esteemed artist Brent Malone.

This lush, tropical lot features the original 4-bed, 3-bath home and an all-wood ipe 2-bed, 2-bath vaulted-ceiling cottage, surrounding a pool and entertainment area.

Live in the move-in-ready cottage while you finish the main house, which has been emptied and prepared for renovations. This is an excellent opportunity to create your own bespoke tropical retreat.

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
