The reason to consider it.
Located at the exclusive northern end of Man-O-War Cay, The Reach is 5 acres of property that overlooks the vibrant waters of the Sea of Abaco, and enjoys a view across the island to the deep blue Atlantic Ocean. Pathways lined with hand-cut native limestone meander through the property, leading to hidden vantage points and pristine snorkelling spots. Offering over 300 feet of water frontage on the Sea of Abaco, there is plenty of room to build a dock and an expansive building envelope for additional residences. The colonial settlement with shops, restaurants and services is just a 10 minute golf cart ride away. The quiet nature of Man-O-War Cay is a delightful reprieve from the bustle of some of the other islands of the Bahamas. The pastel colored homes and white picket fences make visitors feel like they are visiting a New England fishing village, and residents are very proud of their heritage and the natural beauty that surrounds them. Please note: The images displayed here were taken prior to Hurricane Dorian. The home which used to sit on this lot has been digitally removed.

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
