Photos: Bahamas home on prestigious Jack Nicklaus-designed course on sale for $1.45M

With its pristine white beaches and a Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Course that’s regarded as one of the best in the Caribbean, the exclusive area of Baha Mar just west of the Bahamanian capital of Nassau is a dream for visitors who grace the area.

But wouldn’t living there prove even better than sporadically stopping by?

No. 9 Lake Cunningham Estates is a golfer’s dream, backing up to the course, and getting the best of many worlds — close enough to Nassau with its dining and cultural options, yet secluded enough to enjoy peace, relaxation and a quiet 18 holes.

Here’s more from the listing at Sotheby’s:

This expansive home boasts a 5-bedroom main house, plus a 1 bedroom cottage overlooking the pool. The ground floor welcomes its owners and guests with a seamless, open floor plan featuring a generously sized kitchen adjacent to a comfortable family living room. Complementing this space are a formal living and dining area, along with a separate TV room that opens to the pool, and more.

Before Royal Blue Golf Course came into being, another golf course sat on this property, an additional chunk of bait used to lure potential travelers to this remote paradise. The 9-hole course, then known as Cable Beach Golf Club, was loosely associated with the British Colonial Hotel nearly four miles to its east, and offered Floridians (and others from the nearby Southeast United States) a slice of home — a flat, tricky run of holes with a constant threat of water. It was completely renovated and an additional nine was also added, one that works through elevation changes and rock formation.

Here’s a look at the home, which is currently for sale at the price of $1,450,000.
