Just 1.5 miles away from Meads Bay, the hottest commodity in the peculiar world of Anguilla real estate, this gorgeous lot of 0.5 acres of craggy land sits on the quiet outskirts of Long Bay village. Anguilla’s beaten track is never especially busy but Long Bay and its small community remain far apart from the bustle of seasonal visitors—despite the fact that they are literally right next to the island’s tourist hotspot.

A half-mile beach with a very subtle bend, Long Bay adorns the foot of Anguilla’s modest northern cliffs. The crunchy white sand contrasts with the intense hue of the sea on this part of the island to create a dramatic combination. Long Bay is not usually listed among Anguilla’s best swimming spots (the shallow end can be rocky, though far from unpleasant) but there is absolutely no question it boasts some of the most staggering views around.

Listed at US $430,000, this parcel of Anguilla real estate ideal for a spacious private house with land to spare for a charming garden. Make no mistake about it, though: the star of whatever gets built on this lot will always be the mesmerizing view over Anguilla’s northern shores.
