Bahamas Real Estate "Pink Dolphin" Hope Town Abaco

Bahamas Real Estate listing in Hope Town, Abaco - "Pink Dolphin" offers almost 3/4 of an acre with 100 feet of ocean frontage http://goo.gl/fcKqsX "Pink Dolphin" is one of Hope Town's largest historical beach properties. The home is located in the area known as Upalong - with its rich history, beautiful sandy beach and private location, but within walking distance to all amenities. An excerpt from Richard Seaberg's book: "Hope Town Reality of a Dream" states that "Upalong was likely developed in the mid-1800s when the more affluent inhabitants built. The area would have been the most desirable land in Hope Town." According to a family member, Dr. and Mrs. Gallup wintered in Hope Town. Void of electricity and running water, they had gas lanterns for their light source, and pumped water by hand. In the evenings Dr. Gallup would write his speeches and Mrs. Gallup would paint. They loved the seclusion and privacy of their island home, and played scrabble every night without fail. In time and with the next generation, the house was upgraded with all the modern conveniences. Sited on excellent elevation, with its trade mark pink concrete wall and gated entrance, the property is teaming with mature tropical foliage. The home is 836 sq. ft. with 3 bedrooms and two bathrooms. It still retains most of its original Loyalist style construction including the high pitched shake roof, open beam ceilings, wood floors, locally hand-milled Abaco Pine frame, and the traditional style wood shutters on windows and doors. Designed to maximize the cross breezes, the home features open porches and a detached bedroom pod. The home is of museum quality, and would make a remarkable island haven.
