- Island for sale in Bahamas
What’s better than having your own luxury resort in the Bahamas? Be the owner of a private island in the Bahamas.
Little Ragged Island, also known as St Andrew’s, is the largest private island currently for sale in the Caribbean paradise.
We are talking about more than 295 hectares of covered hills and white sand beaches. All surrounded by a warm blue ocean. It’s, frankly, a deep-pocketed developer’s dream.
This secluded wonderland connects to the rest of the world via a 10-minute boat ride to nearby Ragged Island. A private airstrip awaits you there. But if you prefer to arrive on a big yacht, because that’s the kind of life you lead, there is also access to deep water for big boats.
There are freshwater ponds, snorkeling and sailing opportunities. Also great places to fish and you can even relax on the beach and see flamingos.
Groupers, snappers, barracudas, and king fish swim among the reefs. While the forests are rich in lignum vitae trees, known for their medicinal properties.
If you prefer to climb a hill and contemplate with satisfaction the total wealth of your domain, the elevation reaches from sea level to a little more than 12 meters.
In terms of development opportunities, there is enough space to build a boutique resort with an 18-hole golf course. Or if you’re an evil criminal genius, you might have a really high-level Bond villain lair.
CocoCay: the $ 250 million private island 0:57Little Ragged went on sale through Concierge Auctions, a US real estate company that auctions properties to the highest bidder. And whose client list, he says, includes some names you may have heard of, such as Cher and Michael Jordan.
The company also commissioned the most expensive US home to come up for auction. So if you’re hoping to do some sort of negotiation on it, you’d better keep looking at the Zillow real estate search site.
To join the auction, you must make a deposit of US $ 100,000, but there is no reserve price. The list is trading at $ 19.5 million, although neither a minimum bid nor a minimum expected bid was established.
“We have received a great deal of interest in the auction so far. And it is expected to be a unique opportunity, ”Laura Brady, co-founder and CEO of Concierge Auctions, told Citizen Free Press Travel. “We are confident that the Concierge Auctions platform will offer unmatched reach to global buyers throughout the auction process,” he added.
Virtual private tours are available online. The auction begins on March 26, 2021 and ends on March 31.
If you miss out on this opportunity, Blue Estate Group recently revealed their plans for the artificial Blue Estate island near the Bahamas. There, property prices start at $ 19,800 and climb to more than $ 1 billion.
Several island traders have reported a large increase in demand for private islands in the wake of COVID-19. One of them told the newspaper The New York Times in October it had had its busiest two months in over 20 years.
