Vacationers looking for a private beach retreat, take note. The most expensive single-family property in the Bahamas just hit the market for $38,523,575.

Set in New Providence Island’s Old Fort Bay neighborhood, the 14,071-square-foot oceanfront estate, known as Aspara, comes with private beach access.

“This home was custom built by the current owners and is located within Old Fort Bay Club, where members have access to the best beach club in the Bahamas,” says listing agent Matthew Marco.

So what does “the best” beach club in the Bahamas get you? Exclusive access to two restaurants, two bars, basketball courts, tennis courts, playgrounds, a swimming pool, event space, and the marina.

The eight-bedroom property sits on a little less than an acre, with water on both sides, and is just a 10-minute drive to some of the nicest resorts and internationally acclaimed nightlife and restaurants.

“The property alone … is like a private oasis,” Marco says. “Add a house of this caliber, equipped with the finest of everything, and we are shopping it to the top 1% of the world market.”

The sleek, spacious, open-concept home offers private seating “pods” and features a 1,500-square-foot, spa-inspired primary suite with a steam shower and gas fireplace. Two guest suites and all of the common areas are on the main level, which is more than 20 feet above sea level—affording front-row, ocean views.

Deluxe details include a fitness center; 876-bottle, glass-enclosed wine cellar; office; elevator; and staff quarters.

“The residence has been kept fully up to date with regular smart home updates over the years, together with a full-time staff that maintain everything to a level not typically seen in the Bahamas,” Marco says.

On the garden level, there are seven additional bedrooms with en suite bathrooms.

Outdoors, a resort-style swimming pool, outdoor kitchen, and bar await. Other fab features include a koi pond, 150-foot boat dock, and boathouse.

“The location can not be duplicated,” Marco insists. “There’s simply no land left, and to have an acre of oceanfront and marina property like this, in the best club in the Bahamas, is simply unheard of.”
