Featured on House Hunters International!
Built in the late 1800's by the island's first contractor, he named the home "Chatterbox" for his wife. Whether or not she appreciated the honour is not known, but the care and detail that went into construction is obvious.
Located in the heart of Dunmore Town, Chatterbox is a three bedroom (two queens, one twin), two bath home with wood floors, comfortable furniture and lots of charm. A second floor patio and widow's walk offer stunning sunset views. A porch swing on the front patio encourages late afternoon naps and an appreciation for the island breeze.
Literally steps away from the grocery store, bakery and deli nothing is out of reach. The pink sand beach is only a short walk away and golf carts are available for hire for exploring the island. Bone fishing and deep sea fishing, SCUBA diving and snorkeling are all easily accessible services! The services of a housekeeper are included each morning except on Sunday's.

Chatterbox is magical!

I have vacationed at Chatterbox multiple times, and it is the trip I look forward to the most each year. The beautiful interiors and amazing outdoor space in the back patio area and up on the widow's walk are such a relaxing combo. Chatterbox is a short walk from some of my favorite restaurants, and in the mornings it's a quick scoot over to the beach. The owner has done a beautiful job of decorating Chatterbox while maintaining all of the old charm that one wants in Harbour Island.

Chatterbox is not only centrally located to everything you want to do on Harbour Island, its character makes you never want to stay anywhere else! The outdoor terrace is amazing for entertaining and enjoying cocktails before heading out. The interior style is island chic and makes you truly enjoy the bahamas the way you want to. With three bedrooms, its provides plenty of space, and a great size living room and dining room for sitting down and enjoying a meal together. I had a wonderful visit and highly recommend this home.

Having stayed at Chatterbox a number of times, I can say it is a wonderful house. The location in town is ideal. Close to the shops and galleries in town, and (like everything on HI), a short golf cart ride to the beach. The rooms are comfortable and spacious, and the huge kitchen is great to cook in. We spent a lot of time on the back porch and the upstairs deck, which has great views and is a perfect place to relax. Can't wait to go back!
