The brief

The reason to consider it.

Just minutes from Treasure Cay, this exceptional 2.4-acre parcel offers breathtaking views across the Sea of Abaco, overlooking Treasure Cay’s Windward Beach and stretching all the way to Great Guana Cay. With approximately 101 feet of sheltered beachfront and nearly 975 feet in depth, this property provides both privacy and opportunity in one of Abaco’s most desirable areas. The parcel fronts the highway with electricity and telephone utilities readily available and has been partially cleared, making it an excellent site to build your dream estate or establish a charming cottage rental. The area has seen steady growth in recent years, with vacation rentals becoming increasingly popular. Restrictions are limited to residential use. Known for its natural beauty, this shoreline is home to young sea life, while world-class pelagic and flats fishing are only minutes away. Marsh Harbour, with its expanding selection of shops, restaurants, and services, is just 20 minutes away, along with the international airport, which offers direct flights to Miami, Ft Lauderdale, Palm Beach, and Atlanta.

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
