The brief

The reason to consider it.

This 80-acre natural treasure is one of The Bahamas best opportunities for iconic residential living and luxury beachfront development. Gun Point is on the northern tip of mainland North Eleuthera, in close proximity to Harbour Island and Spanish Wells. This unique location establishes it as some of the most valuable real estate in the country, given Eleuthera’s current trajectory. The land runs out to a peninsula, with pristine white sand beaches on either side and 2 miles of water frontage. The main residence is 3,786 sq. ft. 4 bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms. There is also a 2,500 sq. ft. cottage with 2 bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms. A tennis court, gazebos, rainwater catchment system and reverse osmosis system, multiple generators, 175 ft. dock and boat ramp, on-site vehicles and open zoning are all invaluable features to this prominent property. Gun Point is 200 miles east of Florida and 50 miles east of New Providence, making it a convenient trip by boat or plane. It is a short drive from North Eleuthera International Airport, which accommodates both private and large commercial aircrafts.

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
