Imagine your life on an historical island estate surrounded by native foliage and coconut trees, shushing in the easterly breezes; morning walks on a beach shared with only four other properties; jaunts to Rose Island on your boat, conveniently tethered to your private dock; gatherings with your favourite people on the spacious, tiered covered and uncovered verandahs, gazing out to the Bahama blue hued seas from the equally spacious, wraparound balcony. Everything about Stanley is grand yet understated, timeless elegance in the hub of east Nassau and yet one feels worlds away when standing at the top of the custom-made 1950s mahogany staircase or staring out at the incomparable views from the cherry wood lined study. Other bonus features: a wine cellar in the original limestone-walled basement (dates to 1780); 2 outdoor showers – one on the balcony and one near the beach; an 18th century carriage house converted into a 1 bedroom guest cottage with kitchenette & workshop, and a Bahama room opening on to a peaceful, shady back garden and pool. Owner's financing considered.
