Schooner Bay Real Estate
Property Description
Great Opportunity for Island Get-away
The Schooner Bay model, Abaco, Bahamas, is an attempt to redirect the regional development trend away from sprawl and towards environmental responsibility and sustainability. All aspects of the building process will be environmentally-sensitive. Schooner Bay is a sustainable, environmentally conscious community with traditional Bahamian architecture.
The Schooner Bay Village site features sweeping views of the ocean and offers the only opportunity for a harbor on the Atlantic coast of the island for twenty miles in either direction. Accordingly, the harbour and marina function as the center of the community, and will be surrounded by shops, restaurants and other mixed-use buildings generating a civic and commercial vitality. The area offers significant space for community gathering, with a continuous promenade curving along the edge of the water, as well a central plaza overlooking the marina.
The master plan features a man-made island, offering cottages as part of a boutique island hotel program, with views of passing sailing craft.
Environmental planning methods include the creation of a greenway and other management techniques to maintain wildlife habitats. Notably, the 50 acre north/south greenway preserves the habitat of the Bahamian parrot, which feeds and migrates through the area annually. A buffered area along the beach also preserves the natural dunes and vegetation.
These two lots are been sold together and have 87 feet on the harbour, build your dream island home and enjoy the relaxed life of the islands.
