The brief

The reason to consider it.

This elevated waterfront lot offers a rare opportunity to create a private coastal retreat surrounded by lush tropical beauty. Rich with mature fruit trees and native vegetation, the property provides a natural sense of privacy while capturing the essence of island living. A future home on this parcel would enjoy incredible ocean views, enhanced by the elevated setting and cooling trade winds. With approximately 28 feet of direct ocean frontage, the lot offers the potential to construct a small dock or design steps leading down to the water, creating effortless access to the sea for swimming, kayaking, or launching a small vessel. A drilled well is already in place, and electricity is available to the lot, offering valuable infrastructure for future development. For buyers seeking expanded possibilities, this parcel may also be purchased together with the adjacent residence, allowing for a larger estate, guest accommodations, or added privacy. An exceptional opportunity to build on the waterfront, where natural beauty, breathtaking views, and flexibility come together.

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
