Nestled on the serene shores of Cat Island, Bahamas, this custom-built beachfront estate offers a rare blend of tropical beauty, privacy, and direct access for both aviators and mariners. Spread across over two acres, the property features 250 feet of pristine beachfront and extends 450 feet deep, ensuring your own private stretch of paradise.
Custom-Built Comfort and Island Elegance
The main residence combines craftsmanship with coastal comfort. Inside, you’ll find two spacious bedrooms and two baths surrounded by cool ocean breezes and natural light. The chef’s kitchen features custom-built cabinetry, granite countertops, and a large entertaining island, making it a perfect space for gatherings or peaceful mornings overlooking the ocean.
A separate guest house provides space for extended family or visiting friends, with accommodations for up to six guests and an additional bath — blending practicality with island hospitality.
Aviation and Boating Convenience in One
Located within the exclusive Hawk’s Nest Resort and Marina, the property is a haven for both pilots and boaters. For aviation enthusiasts, the resort features its own 3,100-foot private airstrip, while the New Bight (MYCB) airstrip, just a short distance away, serves as the island’s official port of entry.
If your travels bring you by sea, the Hawk’s Nest Marina offers one of the finest facilities in the Bahamas. Only 100 yards from an 800-foot ocean drop-off, it gives direct access to deep-sea fishing and the region’s world-class diving and snorkeling sites.
True Bahamian Lifestyle
Cat Island remains one of the Bahamas’ best-kept secrets — 130 miles southeast of Nassau and 300 miles from Ft. Lauderdale. Here, life moves with the tides, the skies are clear, and community spirit thrives. Hawk’s Nest Resort hosts four annual fishing tournaments, attracting anglers from around the world and celebrating the vibrant culture of this breathtaking destination.
Whether you’re landing your own aircraft or docking a vessel at the marina, this home delivers the freedom and ease of an authentic island lifestyle — where luxury and adventure coexist in perfect harmony.
