Exuma Private Island Private Island in Exuma

Description

An exceptional property in one of the most beautiful places on earth…”Freyed Knot” Elizabeth Island, Exuma. Comprising the middle third of the island, this stunning 25.38-acre property, surveyed in 2022 features incredible elevations and palm shaded beaches. Striking upon approach, four peaks dominate the property, with some of the highest elevations in the Exumas, around 70 feet above sea level. There is virtually no place on the property that doesn’t have an incredible view and a spot to enjoy the sweet tropical breeze.

Seamlessly merging the outdoors with the indoors, this home’s floorplan is open and airy to optimize the views of its surrounding landscapes and ocean. Multiple sliding doors open onto large decks, with a variety of open-air and covered spaces to relax and enjoy panoramic sunrises and sunsets. 4-bedrooms and 5-bathrooms provide ample space for a family and guests. The kitchen wing enjoys 360-degree views and superior ventilation with commercial kitchen equipment and “Blue Louise” Brazilian granite counters. The home is fully equipped to operate by solar or generator power, has a large water holding tank and a dock with a boat lift for easy access.

The acreage offers multiple locations, some with greater elevations than the existing home, to dot the landscape with additional cottages. The bay side beach is protected from the predominate wind and offers the ultimate private space to swim, sail and paddle board, where meals from the grill are frequent and nights around the fire are a must. The sound side beach, bordering Exuma Sound, is a visual treat and allows access to an abundance of reefs that skirt the shore.

Elizabeth Island is one of the barrier islands that make Elizabeth Harbour, one of the largest naturally protected harbours in the Caribbean area. The ocean surrounding the front of the property are deep water, where ships of the 1700’s would anchor and, today, transient sailing and motor super yachts moor offshore to enjoy the visual delights of the surrounding ocean and landscape. This truly is a one-of-a-kind opportunity.
