Pro-golfer Davis Love III recently listed his Golden Isles home for $4.48 million.
The PGA Tour winner’s plantation-style residence is a unique property offering potential owners a blend of farm and beach life. Because of this unique mix and the number of other luxury properties in the area, the home has been on and off the market since 2015. That’s a shame, because the beautiful but oft-ignored island chain is the perfect spot to relax while working on your golf game, and the property is lush and private.
Located about halfway between Savannah, Georgia, and Jacksonville, Florida, on St. Simons Island, Love’s estate spans 5 acres, and is a completely functional farm. High-end interior details include dramatic pitched ceilings with dormers, wood paneling, and grand fireplaces. Pine, quarter-sawn plank floors, and oak are all used heavily.
The home’s elevated dining room is a unique design that raises the communal act of daily dining to an occasion, while the French Country-style kitchen boasts light custom cabinetry, a large eat-in island, and stainless steel appliances for a plantation-style appeal. The bedrooms all work with familiar elements, but the master’s fireplace, quarter-sawn plank ceiling, and outside terrace make it a winner.
Love has won 21 PGA Tour events during his long career.
