More Details: COCONUT PALM BAY – MAIN RESIDENCE

On the main level, below the expansive upstairs master bedroom suite and library / office, are the sitting room, dining room, breakfast room and kitchen. Off the entrance hall is a powder room and off the kitchen is a large pantry and a laundry room area. Beside and down a short covered breezeway “Sunrise” and ”Sunset” offer two very private guest suites. Little has not been thought of, from the stainless-steel roof, to the over 150 mph hurricane windows and doors, to the air conditioned and dehumidified air handling system, to the lower-level exercise room, spa bathroom and workshop / storage areas.

With three bedrooms and 5.5 bathrooms, a large sitting room, TV / study room and dining room / kitchen there is little more that could be asked for.

A hurricane proof sea wall cut painstakingly through solid rock opens through a 35 ft. wide entrance, into a private marina with a MLW depth of 8 feet and 390 linear feet of 9 ft. wide docks. A covered boat lift with 13,000 lb capacity and a boat house set up with freezers, a high capacity ice maker, rod and tackle storage, scuba equipment storage and much more offers the ultimate facility for inshore and offshore fishing, scuba diving and most conceivable boating activities.

A 1,283 sq. ft. maintenance building houses a 5,000 gallon a day reverse osmosis water maker which when needed can be fed into 200,000 +/- gallons of rainwater capacity. It includes a work shop facility, storage for house and garden inventory, vehicle garaging, laundry room and staff bathroom. The current Manager has operated the estate since it was purchased by the present owner and is directly responsible for the immaculate condition of the property as it is today.

Although main electricity comes directly onto the property, there are three backup generators which are housed in two separate buildings, one proximate to the marina and guest house and the other proximate to the main house. You can run the full facilities of the main house on the 75-kW generator, run the guest house and marina individually on the 40 kW generator, and use the 13 kW as a stand by for the main house when the owners are not in residence. There is ultimate flexibility designed into the system and this along with satellite internet allows for comfort and consistency of all types of communication.

Whether in the cabana on the Atlantic or Sea of Abaco beach front, whether walking the meticulously groomed coral walled walkways that permeate the entire estate, the allure of the fragrances of the bougainvillea, jasmine, hibiscus and oleander will relax you and make you feel you are in one of the most intimate and special places in all of the Bahamas.

Ocean frontage measures 983 feet, Sea of Abaco frontage 1,040 feet. Beautiful sandy ocean and sea beaches. Nearly one mile of illuminated golf cart roads surfaced with crushed limestone crisscross the property.
