Description of this Single Family Home Property in Abaco
Located in the highly sought-after area of Upalong, is an uncommon offering that truly has it all: 133’ of beachfront, a private dock on Nigh Creek, over an acre of property with excellent elevation and privacy, 3-bedroom cottage with lighthouse views, all within walking distance to Hope Town’s shops & eateries. In Richard Seaberg’s novel, “Hope Town: Reality of a Dream”, the author writes: “Upalong area would have been the most desirable land in Hope Town, or Great Harbor as it was known then, considering its higher elevation and views to both the harbor and the ocean. The breezes would come from any direction depending on the time of the year.” If all that’s been mentioned, weren’t already enough, this amazing trophy property also comes with fame factor! Dr. George Gallup (founder of the Gallup Poll) and his wife, Ophelia, owned the property, and built The Green Dolphin, a sister cottage to The Pink Dolphin which was sold some years ago. The Gallups would spend months at a time wintering at their private retreat. A truly unique offering for a collector of the extraordinary.
