When it comes to finding your dream home, there are several things to consider.

First, you’ll consider how connected your home is to work or whether there are good schools nearby for your children – if you have any, of course.

So how about a place that takes six days by boat to get there and is about 6,407 miles from UNITED KINGDOM – even if still technically part of Britain?

After all, you would still have a UK postcode if you’ve moved here – but it looks like you’d need more than just British citizenship to settle here.

The island we are talking about is Tristan da Cunha, located south Atlantic Ocean and is extremely remote.

It is 1,732 miles from Cape Town in South Africa and 2,454 miles from Mar del Plata in Argentina.

As you might expect, the island is sparsely populated, with only 236 inhabitants, according to their website.

All the residents are citizens of the British Overseas Territories and, with only 10 families living on the island, everyone knows each other quite well.

For this reason, residents feel very comfortable about the safety of the island.

During an interview for a BBC documentary, Britain’s Treasure Islands, in 2016, one resident said: “You can let the kids go anywhere, I mean anywhere.

“We don’t lock the door and bolt it, we leave our windows open, we leave our doors open. There’s no lock at all.”

Sounds pretty idyllic, doesn’t it?

Well don’t start looking visas For now, it seems like the only way you can call the island home is if you have an existing “family connection” there.

On the island’s official website, it bed: “Immigrating to Tristan is only possible if you already have a family connection to the island. Even then, there are certain residency restrictions. It is not possible to purchase real estate or a property on the islands.”

Settling on the island is an extremely difficult task, and that’s because there aren’t any there.

According to the website, very few expat jobs are available and these are fixed-term contracts.

These contracts typically last two years and are for professional jobs such as doctors, educational counselors and environmental advocates.

Job offers are shared two to three times a year, but applicants must be in good health, speak English and have the required qualifications.

If you thought you wanted to visit Tristan, it won’t be easy to do so.

The only way to get there is by boat.

Most ships towards the island, they leave from South Africa and take almost a week to arrive.
