Filed under: Estates

Lyford Cay is one of the most elite spots in the Bahamas. This idyllic retreat has seen more than its fair share of billionaires looking for a private getaway. Jacaranda is a seven-bedroom retreat on 1.5 acres perched on the highest elevated ridge of Lyford Cay, next to the estate owned by the late Sir John Templeton. The home has views of the Lyford Cay Golf Course, the Lyford Cay Club and the azure waters of the Caribbean.

This home has been furnished and decorated in classic style and features a number of antiques and works of art by Vassarely, Calder and Miro. Escape with a book in the library which has a small bar and built-in bookshelves. A particularly nice touch is the family room separating the adults' guest bedrooms from the childrens' bedrooms. The home is in touch with island life and has a rainwater tank, a reverse osmosis water system and two standby generators. The two car garage comes with three golf carts. This home is listed at $16.9 million.
