HOUSING IN GABON
There is also a large expatriate community in Libreville, made up of both Westerners and immigrant laborers from West Africa.
As for the American expatriate, there is the U.S. Government-owned housing at the Sabliere Compound, which is located 7 miles north of downtown Libreville, close to the airport. The compound, situated directly on the beach, includes six attractive townhouses, of which three have three bedrooms and three have two bedrooms. The residences are air-conditioned and completely furnished, including rugs and draperies.
Compound residents enjoy a common play area, large garden, swimming pool, and BBQ/bar area. The compound is nicely landscaped and ideal for children. The pool area was inaugurated in March 1999 and consists of a lap-size pool, children’s pool, bar, barbecue, and changing rooms. The grounds are attractively lighted for evening entertainment and residents often hold parties and barbecues.
Also, there are two large three-bedroom (plus den?) apartments in a new building near the beach. These apartments are open, have balconies, and can be entered directly from the elevator. |
