If you were expecting to find information about Clark Cottage here,
we are pleased to announce that we have recently purchased and renovated
The Easter House, a property just across the street from Clark Cottage
in the same neighborhood of homes by the beach. (We are no longer
renting the Clark Cottage.) |
The house has four bedrooms and a spacious living room with breathtaking views of the ocean and southern Eleuthera. We have just completed an extensive renovation, including the three bathrooms and central air conditioning. The first floor of the house has an entry hall and large living room with glass sliding doors on two sides that open on to an outside deck. The living room also includes a dining area and a working stone fireplace. There is a spacious kitchen with a full suite of appliances, including a dishwasher, microwave and washer / dryer. There are two bedrooms on the main floor (one king and one queen)
both with en suite bathrooms and direct access to the large outside
deck. The upstairs bedrooms (both with 2 twin beds) share a bath and
have spectacular views of the water. There are also two small outside
decks upstairs. Harbour Island is the “jewel” in the crown of the Bahamas.
The bucolic feeling of Dunmore Town owes much to the architecture
of the American Loyalists, who colonized the island following American
Revolution. The easy rhythm of the island comes from the friendly
people who live there, the breathtaking beach, and the beautiful weather. |
