A good place to find a quiet community, there are many residential areas about ten to fifteen minutes away by car from George Town. The local shopping facilities are superb and if you like boats, the convenience of owning a dock at the bottom of your garden is also hard to beat. Skateboarding and surfing opportunities and tuition are available at the nearby Black Pearl Skateboard & Surf park, located at the most handy Grand Harbour Shopping Centre on Shamrock Road. Here you will find all the basics such as groceries, video rental, books, liquor, clothes, shoes, a pharmacy, bars, restaurants and an art store. On Shamrock Road you'll even find a very good Chinese restaurant, Pizza restaurants and a 24 hour convenience store.
Despite all the new developments, this is not a new town area. The first royal land grant signalling a permanent settlement on Grand Cayman was recorded in 1734, covering three thousand acres of land between Prospect and North Sound.
A mix of inland and waterfront properties are still available for purchase in this area. Due to the general desirability and rate of growth in this area, it's a good place in which to invest and call home. Pricing for properties starts from mid range apartments to very exclusive million dollar homes situated in areas such as Patrick's Island and Prospect Road Point. There is also a large rental selection of homes and condos.
