Description
Tranquility, our Bahamian house on Great Guana Cay is just that. A wonderfully tranquil, congenial home with all amenities one should expect for a completely comfortable experience. Specifically designed for the site by renowned architect Thomas Frost, the view takes advantage of both the Sea of Abaco, with its interesting islands as well as the Atlantic Ocean. The interior walls are all cypress and the floors are easy to care for ceramic tile.
Cross ventilation, five ceiling fans, including the porch, and central air conditioning assures year ?round comfort. The cathedral ceiling and seventeen feet of front window space affords a spectacular view of the Sea and landscape. From the living room one enters the most used space; a screened and tiled lanai. This brings one close to nature and the nightly sunsets over the Sea are in full view. Carefull watching may, on rare occasions, allow a glimpse of the illusive, but much sought after, ?green flash.?
The main floor contains two bedrooms; one with queen sized bed and short-wave radio, the other with twin beds. Both with adjoining, full baths and there is also an enclosed out door shower.
The fully windowed loft and open deck is reached by a spiral stair case which affords a 360 degree spectacular view of the Sea, Ocean, Settlement and the natural landscape. The loft contains a futon for quite relaxation, contemplation and napping.
The uniquely situated house allows for a vast diversity of plants and trees to flourish. Paths through the natural coral garden highlight young citrus, exotic fruit trees and bromeliads.
For swimming/snorkeling, our Sea of Abaco dock and the Ocean itself are but seconds away by foot. |
