Address:

EL`LURE, our Bahama house, is located directly on the water between the villages of The Current and Lower Bogue. The house sits on a coral ridge covered with vegetation and an assortment of fruit trees, sea grapes and palms. There are steps leading into the water which varies from 1 to 3 feet, depending on the tide. The bottom is white sand and great for swimming, finding sand dollars and snorkeling along the rocky shoreline at high tide.

You can walk or swim for hundreds of yards from the shore, as there are no currents or drop-offs, just white sand. Very private. No one walking in front of the house. And no sand flies. The location of the house takes advantage of four (4) truly different Bahamian cultures:

The Current, Lower Bogue, Harbour Island and Spanish Wells.

The living/dining room area has a dining table which can accommodate six. There is also a service bar with a refrigerator. A CD player with an assortment of CD’s ranging from island music to jazz, classical, country and pops is located in the living room. Plus a bookcase full of assorted novels and informational reading.

Each room is equipped with a ceiling fan, with cross ventilation between windows and patio doors. There is always a nice breeze. Plus the house is equipped with Central Air-Conditioning.

The master bedroom has a queen size bed with the second bedroom having a set of twin beds. There is also a sleeping loft with two (2) full twin beds.

There are two (2) full bath rooms, each with a shower.

The kitchen is fully equipped, with dishwasher, microwave, gas range oven, refrigerator and all the necessary small appliances. My wife is a gourmet cook and Interior Designer, so we have at least one of everything! The water is fine for drinking or if you prefer bottled water is available at the grocery stores.

Outside living is accommodated by a patio which runs around the entire house and includes chairs, lounges and dining tables. There is also a patio near the water with its own thatched umbrella and a fresh water wash-off.
