Schooner Bay - An Abaco Real Estate Update

Has anyone been to Schooner Bay lately?
Our Abaco real estate agents visited the village site in South Abaco the other day and were excited about the progress.
The harbour at the future sport-fishery has been opened with 6,000 lineal feet of seawall.
The eco-friendly Schooner Bay village is expected to have loads of appeal as it offers the only navigable port along the 50-mile Atlantic shoreline of South Abaco. Developers say it will serve as both a recreational and a commercial hub.
About 14 homes are already being built – all in the charming Colonial style of the 1700s when the settlers fled the Carolinas, determined to remain loyal to the British Crown in their new home of Abaco.
Schooner Bay is designed as a pedestrian village with a visitor friendly attitude.
Conservation of the environment will be paramount in a village designed to attract families to live, work and play.

The village will centre around the generous harbour, a gorgeous beach and natural landscape with space for shops, restaurants and other mixed-use buildings, including a school house, an equestrian centre and a farm.
Long term plans include everything you need to live and work in a sustainable, people friendly community.
The developers promise a place with all the modern conveniences in an idyllic “out island” environment.
If you're in the market for a second home (a one day retirement home) or an investment property for your children, this exciting Abaco real estate development is really worth checking out
