The ultimate vacation getaway
Leave your shoes and your worries behind, and enjoy the ultimate vacation in this brand-new beachfront home in Hope Town on the beautiful island of Elbow Cay, Bahamas. This secluded four-bedroom, three-bath house sits atop a spectacular bluff overlooking a beautiful Atlantic-side beach, with a healthy reef just offshore for snorkeling. It's a short walk from the charming Hope Town settlement, but is nestled in a palm grove, high above a pristine beach on a large private lot. With its open floor plan and inviting outdoor spaces, Hope Chest is designed to bring families and friends together while providing ample opportunities for privacy and solitude.
Hope Chest combines the best of island living with the comforts of home. This newly built, architect-designed home features an open floor plan, with a 20-foot vaulted ceiling above the "great room" -- a connected space that combines a chef's kitchen with dining and living areas.
The first floor also features three large bedrooms and two bathrooms. A private first-floor study offers a quiet retreat for reading, working, or simply enjoying a moment of solitude. Upstairs, a spacious bedroom, bathroom, and lounge await, offering a separate living area with a balcony that provides spectacular views of both the harbour area and the nearby Atlantic Ocean.
Outside, you'll find three distinct deck areas, each offering its own unique charm and views. The expansive 1000-square-foot covered front porch is the main gathering place, with its ocean views and ample seating -- providing the perfect spot for al fresco dining or simply relaxing with a good book. In addition, there's a sunny beachfront deck atop the dune and a private second-floor deck, providing faraway views of the ocean and "peekaboo" views of the lighthouse area.
The house is powered by a robust solar power system with a connection to the local utility, which avoids the unpredictable and disruptive power outages that are an unfortunate part of life on the island.
From snorkeling and sunbathing, to strolling along the shore and watching the sunset, to renting a boat and exploring the nearby islands and maritime parks, there's no shortage of ways to unwind and enjoy the natural beauty that surrounds you. Whether you're seeking adventure or simply seeking peace and serenity, this beachfront getaway in Hope Town offers the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and re-connecting with friends and family. Soak up the sun, breathe in the salty sea air, take a leisurely walk along the beach or through the downtown settlement, and experience the unique island of Hope Town in memorable fashion at this private beachfront retreat.
