What is a typical expat home or apartment like in Smith's?

"A typical expat home or apartment in Smith's, is often a charming blend of traditional Bermudian architecture and modern amenities. These homes are usually painted in bright, tropical colors, with white limestone roofs to collect rainwater, a necessary feature due to the island's lack of freshwater sources. The interiors are spacious and airy, with high ceilings and large windows that let in plenty of natural light and offer stunning views of the surrounding landscapes. Many homes have open-plan living areas, modern kitchens equipped with high-end appliances, and comfortable bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms. They often come with outdoor spaces such as patios, balconies, or gardens, perfect for enjoying the island's pleasant weather. Some properties may also have a swimming pool or access to a private beach. The homes are typically located in quiet, residential neighborhoods, close to local amenities like shops, restaurants, and schools. They are often surrounded by lush tropical vegetation, providing a sense of privacy and tranquility. Despite the peaceful surroundings, they are usually just a short drive away from the bustling city of Hamilton and other attractions on the island. In terms of furnishings, some homes come fully furnished, while others are unfurnished, allowing expats to bring in or buy their own furniture. The style of furnishings can vary widely, from classic and traditional to contemporary and minimalist. Overall, expat homes in Smith's, Bermuda, offer a comfortable and luxurious lifestyle, combining the charm of island living with the conveniences of modern life," remarked one foreigner who made the move to Smith's.
