The privacy, the views and the proximity of the homes to the water makes it feel like you’re a part of the sea and the islands,” said the owner, Janet Taggares, to Masion Global.

“The area is private and quiet and abounding in flora and fauna,” Taggares said. “We are seeing interest from folks with large yachts, those looking to create a family estate for many to come enjoy and people who want to escape the craziness of the current state of affairs on the mainland.”
