These Six Private Islands Cost The Equivalent Of An Apartment In Europe, Interested In Buying?
JAKARTA - Owning a private island, with beaches and boat docks, year-round sunshine and away from the hustle and bustle, is a dream for many. However, not many are lucky enough to make it happen.
However, what if a private island was sold at the price of a private apartment in Europe? These six islands can be considered if you have a thick enough pocket.
Instead of buying apartments in big European cities, there's no harm in investing by buying one of these six private islands, as reported by Euronews.
Big Tancook IslandBig Tancook Island located in Nova Scotia, Canada for 56,898 euros is actually on the market as an island package, meaning you can buy part of the island for a family complex, hotel or campsite. A great purchase, considering we struggle to find a fair comparison of vacations with just one bed.
A space in this Canadian province provides a surprising deal for fans of the simple life. Nova Scotia's rocky coastline and large secluded ponds with fishermen, some of whom make up the small group of 125 residents who live there.
Danhattan IslandThe island which is included in the territory of the State of Connecticut, United States for 263,281 euros is suitable for those of you who dream of a comfortable log cabin and away from the hustle and bustle.
Spanning about half a hectare above Ashland Pond, buyers of this island will have the privilege of docking and docking their boats in land docks as part of the sale-purchase agreement.
Majestic IslandBeaver Dam Lake in the State of Wisconsin, United States is home to fewer than 26 creatively titled islands across its 6,718 acres. Majestic may be one of the less-than-sensible ones, but does it really matter when you're sitting on acres of private island?
Majestic is currently on the market with an off-the-grid lodge in tow, the perfect place to witness the gentle activity surrounding Beaver Dam's animal life. The price offered is very reasonable, 274,982 euros.
Bocal IslandWe enter the resort area here. This island in Nicaragua for 292,535 euros features a two-bedroom guesthouse, a caretaker's house, an infinity pool, a cement pier and miles of sandy beaches.
It would normally be marketed at a much higher price, given its surface area and Nicaragua's beautiful tropical climate. The reduction comes as the owners make major improvements to the island's features, so lucky future buyers have plenty of new things to look forward to.
Isla Carabana SolThe island in Panama for 336.782 euros is a pity to miss, seeing the completeness and facilities offered. There is a sailing boat mooring, a speed boat garage and a property with two self-contained apartments ready to live in.
It was likely designed with rollouts in mind, given its added features, a raised deck complete with BBQ, hot tub, tiki hut, private sandy beach and private clear water swimming lagoon.
To avoid feeling too disconnected, the island also offers good wifi and phone signal and is located just a few minutes' boat ride from a number of bars and restaurants.
Iguana IslandThe most expensive of our finds contains five hectares of white sand beach and sheltered rainforest, blanketed in coconut and banana trees for maximum privacy. Located in Nicaragua, the island costs 396,951 euros but is guaranteed to be reasonable considering what it has to offer.
The property includes a home with three beds, two bathrooms, a terrace, dining area, bar and living room, as well as staff accommodation. There are also walkways that run around the island and a 28-foot watchtower. All of this is equivalent to the price of a studio apartment like in Paris, London or Rome.
