Steeped in Bahamian history and beautifully restored for contemporary island living, Hope Cottage is a charming 2,200 sq. ft. heritage residence set on a 12,502 sq. ft. lot in Governor’s Harbour. Originally built as a cobbler’s shop from hand-cut limestone blocks excavated from the property’s original rainwater cistern, the home retains its authentic character while embracing modern comforts. The two-bedroom residence features a farm-style kitchen with Wolf, Miele and Sub-Zero appliances, Restoration Hardware bathrooms, furnishings and lighting, and natural wood flooring throughout. The comfortable living area opens to a screened porch and private 18' x 10' swimming pool. Fully refurbished in May 2024, Hope Cottage also includes a Samsung television and Starlink. Restaurants and shops are nearby, while the famous pink sands of French Leave Beach are just a short walk away. A rare opportunity to own a beautifully restored piece of Bahamian history in the heart of Governor’s Harbour.
