Description:
Located in the highly sought-after area of Upalong, is an uncommon offering that truly has it all: more than an acre property with 133' of beachfront, a private dock on Nigh Creek, excellent elevation, privacy, plus lighthouse & harbour views, all within walking distance to Hope Townâs shops & eateries. In Richard Seabergâs novel, âHope Town: Reality of a Dreamâ, the author writes: âUpalong area would have been the most desirable land in Hope Town, or Great Harbor as it was known then, considering its higher elevation and views to both the harbor and the ocean. The breezes would come from any direction depending on the time of the year.â If all thatâs been mentioned, werenât already enough, this amazing trophy property also comes with fame factor! Dr. George Gallup (founder of the Gallup Poll) and his wife, Ophelia, once owned the parcel and the adjacent homes on either side of the property. The Gallups would spend months at a time wintering at their private retreat. A truly unique offering for a collector of the extraordinary.
