The oceanfront land, harbor front land and two homes for sale are located in charming, peaceful Hope Town, Bahamas. Hope Town is a picturesque, 18th-century fishing settlement -- like a small, New England village on a tropical island. Set foot on this island and step back in time to a slow-paced, simpler way of life -- in short, to the kind of place you thought no longer existed:
a quiet pedestrian village where walking and bicycling are the main forms of transportation
a safe, family-oriented atmosphere where children roam free, playing along narrow, flower-lined lanes
a tranquil, friendly community where people know one another and doors are left unlocked
a village that maintains its historic charm while providing modern amenities.

Hope Town offers:
a relaxing, serene, "away from it all" atmosphere
the natural beauty of tropical foliage, exceptionally clear jewel-toned waters and secluded beaches with miles of white powder sand
spectacular sailing, boating, deep-sea and bone fishing, snorkeling, diving and surfing.
On a short walk through town, you'll find well-kept homes, a handful of quaint shops, several restaurants, a small hotel, and two tiny but well-stocked grocery stores. The village rings a sheltered harbor -- a haven for sailboats from around the world and the center of this boating community where many adults and children travel to work and school by boat. The four-mile-long island is populated by roughly 300 Bahamians, as well as seasonal European, Canadian and American second home owners and a sprinkling of discerning tourists.
