Jupiter home located in one of the nation’s most private communities with celebrity residents

Billy Nash of The Keyes Company’s Nash Group has announced the sale of a stately compound located in the exclusive Bear’s Club luxury residential and golf course community founded by the legend himself, golfer Jack Nicklaus, and his wife Barbara. The property was sold to an undisclosed domestic buyer on June 16 for $7,550,000 making it the second highest sale in the Bear’s Club in nine years.

The six-bedroom, seven-bathroom compound at 191 Bears Club Drive represented a rare opportunity to acquire a home within the private Bear’s Club, which includes a championship 18-hole golf course and Par 3 Nicklaus Signature course, as well as a 40,000-square-foot clubhouse. The community includes numerous celebrity homeowners who covet the exclusivity and amenities. Bear’s Club residents include Michael Jordan, tennis stars Serena and Venus Williams and PGA and LPGA touring pros Luke Donald, Ernie Els and Michelle Wie.

Custom built in 2005, the 191 Bears Club Drive compound has more than 17,000 square feet, with 13,000 square feet under air. The stunning home includes a 2,000-square-foot master bedroom, steam room/sauna and grand staircase that leads to a hallway specifically designed – with wall niches – to showcase fine art collections.

The more than one-acre property has expansive views of the third and fifth holes and is located just one mile away from the beautiful waters of Jupiter and 20 minutes from Worth Avenue in Palm Beach.

“Billy Nash and his team did a tremendous job creatively and aggressively marketing this one-of-a-kind property,” said Keyes President and CEO Mike Pappas. “At Keyes, we encourage our Sales Associates to embrace their independence while taking advantage of the innovative technology and other tools we have at our disposal.”

The Nash Group uses a world-class marketing approach to bring in potential buyers from around the world. The property was featured in a variety of publications, reaching an international audience in 44 countries. The property also headlined the Wall Street Journal’s “House of the Day” feature and was later voted to become House of the Week. It is now eligible for the publication’s House of the Year distinction. The listing was also worthy of the cover in DuPont Registry’s Fine Home Gallery.

“We are a proactive real estate team,” said Nash. “We don’t wait for the buyers to come to us. We create story lines for our real estate videos to visually stimulate buyers interests in the trophy properties we represent, we listen to the luxury market and most importantly we know how to get our clients to the closing table.”

Coastal Sotheby’s represented the buyer in the transaction.

The Nash Group specializes in ultra-luxury real estate, leveraging Nash’s exclusive relationships built over the last two decades. Within a week of getting 191 Bears Club Drive under contract, The Nash Group secured a $7.5 million listing for a spectacular waterfront estate located minutes away from the Jupiter Inlet.
