Sick of the cold? Check out this $8.7M island retreat on an Ernie Els-designed golf course (with an amazing pool and ocean views)

What about permanently relocating to a place you can enjoy year-round?

Windy, wild weather has taken much of the country by storm this week. And while it’s fun to think about a short golf getaway to somewhere in warmer climes, what about permanently relocating to a place you can enjoy year-round?

Such is the case on the tiny island of Mauritius, a tiny island off the African coast that’s home to about 1.2 million residents and some of the most beautiful views on the planet.

This villa boasts sea, golf and mountain views, all alongside the Ernie Els-designed Anahita Golf Club. When you’re done with 18, it’s easy to dip in the 25-meter pool that could entertain quite the crew of golf buddies.

From the listing at Sotheby’s:

Located next to the stunning swimming pool, the large open plan kitchen and living space are the heart of this exquisite villa. Each of the rooms has been individually decorated and feature bespoke, locally made furniture throughout.

With beautifully designed spaces inside and out, Villa Extraordinaire is the perfect space to bring the whole family together.

Foreign ownership: access to Mauritian residence permit and a favourable fiscal climate.

And of course, there’s the weather. With temperatures in the summer hovering in the 80s and in the winter still jumping consistently into the 70s, this could be the perfect place if you’ve had enough shoveling.

Here are some stunning images of the property:

Gary McCord flipped this Scottsdale condo for a $2.5 million profit after buying it just four years ago

The former CBS Sports commentator was a winner in a recent real estate transaction in Arizona.

Although Gary McCord played in more thana 400 PGA Tour events, he never found the winner’s circle. But the former CBS Sports commentator certainly turned up on the right side of a real estate transaction in his adopted home of Arizona.

According to a blurb in the Arizona Republic, part of the same USA Today Network that runs Golfweek, McCord and his wife Diane recently sold their condo in the Kierland area of Scottsdale for $5 million.

Drs. Christopher and Irene Biggs paid cash for a Scottsdale penthouse in the Kierland area. The 4,059-square-foot condominium with three bedrooms and 3 ½ bathrooms has a private elevator, a 210-bottle glass wine wall, electronic window shades, custom chandeliers, floor-to-ceiling windows and a waterfall marble kitchen island. Gary and Diane McCord sold the home. Gary is a professional golfer and commentator.

The sale netted a 100 percent profit since the McCords purchased the home for $2.5 million in 2019. The property overlooks Kierland, a 27-hole spread in North Scottsdale.

At the recent Arizona Golf Hall of Fame induction ceremony for the Class of 2023, McCord was among the attendees as he was on hand to support his former CBS colleague and current podcast partner Peter Kostis, with whom he runs the Kostis/McCord Learning Center.

“I brought him here to Arizona,” McCord told Golfweek of his relationship with Kostis. “I knew him from the Tour and him teaching a lot of the guys. He got tired of Florida so I called him and I said, ‘You wanna come down [to Arizona]? I got a new place called Grayhawk. I’m going to start a golf school there, and I have no idea what to do.’

McCord and Kostis both left CBS after the end of 2019 after their contracts were not renewed. These days, the duo has a YouTube channel called “Kostis and McCord: Off their Rockers.”

Here’s a look at the property that McCord recently sold:
