If you ask a group of people to name their ultimate dream, there's a good chance that at least one of them would mention owning their own private island in a glorious, tropical paradise.
Well, that's exactly what Crown Pigeon Island & Cays in the Bahamas offers.
This is an 11-acre private island currently listed with Bahamas Sotheby's International Realty, and what caught our attention is that the owners have created a golf course on the island itself.
Designed and built by Celebrity Greens, the layout has been worked into the island's natural contours and consists of three greens and multiple tee positions that can be combined to create up to 21 different hole configurations. Rather than a traditional course, it's a highly customised golfing experience designed specifically for the site.
Elsewhere, the island includes three oceanfront villas, three beaches, a beach club, a protected marina and additional oceanfront plots for future development. The surrounding waters are also known locally for their abundant turtle population and provide direct access to renowned bone fishing flats and exceptional deep sea fishing just offshore.
Additionally, the oceanfront villas are positioned to maximise natural light, sea breezes, and panoramic vistas. Villa One is a refined two bedroom residence with a pool, outdoor bar, and expansive entertaining deck, complemented by two guest cottages offering additional suites and workspace. Villa Two is a grand five bedroom home designed for gatherings, featuring a pool, generous oceanfront deck, and a swim up bar overlooking turquoise water. Villa Three provides a more tranquil setting with four bedrooms, including two master suites, along with two detached guest cottages ideal for hosting in complete privacy.
Modern infrastructure supports seamless island living, including underwater power, high speed internet, advanced water systems, organic composting, and backup generators.
On the leeward side, a fully protected 4-acre harbour offers over 600 feet of dockage, large slips, boat lifts, a hauling ramp, and ample operational facilities, including a well-appointed staff residence.
All of that - and your own bespoke golf course.
Mind you, it does cost $39,500,000, so we might have to put a pause on that fantasy for a while.
But we can all dream, right?
