Beach Resort or Family Compound for Sale in Stocking Island, Exuma, Bahamas

Beach Resort or Family Estate

Once in a lifetime opportunity to own an established and internationally recognized award winning eco resort on beautiful Stocking Island, Exuma. It is perfectly situated for conversion to a wonderful private family estate, or also possible resort expansion with adjacent undeveloped land which is also available for purchase.

Stocking Island is considered to have some of the most beautiful beaches in the world. This property spans sea to sea. On one side there is white sand beach bordering picturesque Elizabeth Harbor, a yachtsman's paradise. The other side of the property is located on a protected turquoise lagoon, with docks and moorings.

The developed property consists of ten separate structures connected by natural stone paths, leading to cottages, dining room/restaurant, beach bar and utility buildings and docks. The additional lot available is undeveloped, approximately 1 acre. It has great elevation and is perfect for possible expansion of the existing resort.

The two lots have a total of about 750 feet of water frontage, lush natural flora with abundant flowering plants, mature coconuts and bananas. The buildings are sited to be close to the water's edge, yet capture prevailing breezes and are elevated for panoramic views.

The buildings are heavy construction, pressure treated post and beam structures tied to limestone bedrock stone anchors, all stainless connection hardware. Hip roofs are coated with "hurricane proofing" elastomeric. Floors are saltillo tile. Total square footage including outside living areas is approximately 7200 sq. ft.

The resort has an established clientele and has been named as one of the three best eco resorts in the Caribbean. Most of the furnishings will be included in sale, including all appliances, china, silverware, linens and accessories for commercial kitchen/restaurant, commerical gas stove, freezers and refrigerators. Many of the furnishings are antiques and collectibles.

While the property has been operated as an eco resort, the large kitchen and dining building could be easily converted to a "great room" concept, making the property a wonderful six bedroom private family compound.

Boats and watersports equipment are included, along with satellite communication systems for internet, radio and television.

The facility is self contained with solar electric systems and ample 110 volt power. Water supply is rain catchments throughout the property.

The property has been meticulously maintained and upgraded through the years.

Remote but not isolated, this property while boat accessible only, is only 1 mile from George Town, Exuma and the international airport (GGT) and 90 minutes flying time from South Florida.
