Turks & Caicos Sotheby’s International Realty Official Broker for Shore Club

low rise condo building rendering

For the second time in 15 years, two of the most successful names in Turks and Caicos real estate development have formed an alliance.

The Hartling Group has named Turks & Caicos Sotheby’s International Realty (TCSIR) as the official broker for the Shore Club. The third luxury beachfront resort development for the Hartling Group, the $100 million Shore Club is now under construction on Long Bay beach.

Hartling Group CEO Stan Hartling, and Turks & Caicos Sotheby’s President Joe Zahm, first worked together in 1999, when Zahm provided consulting services on the design of phases two and three of Hartling’s first resort project on Providenciales – The Sands on Grace Bay.

The Sands became one of the first and most successful condo-resorts on Providenciales, and Zahm’s real estate agency (first established as Connolly Zahm Properties) became a powerhouse new development specialist before it morphed into its present form as TCSIR.

From that first occasion when Hartling and Zahm combined their collective expertise has come many years of professional respect and personal friendship between the two business leaders. “I’m really looking forward to working with Joe and his team again,” states Hartling. “We feel that combining our in – house abilities with Turks & Caicos Sotheby’s International Realty’s local, regional and international power, puts the Shore Club, and other Hartling Group developments in the optimal position to grow on our success. Joe, Nina Siegenthaler and their team have deep knowledge of the resort real estate model and luxury market, and have many tools at their disposal to penetrate the international market through the Sotheby’s International Realty Brand”.

Adds Zahm: “The timing is ideal for our team to represent the Shore Club to our international audience. Long Bay is now home to some of the finest completed and under-development estates in the Caribbean, with strong market demand and rapidly improving values. Just as Stan’s existing developments significantly exceeded expectations, so too will the Shore Club, with its highly evolved, lower density master plan, multiple swimming pools and restaurants, great condominium suites and incredible single family villas. Construction is progressing quickly and with over 60% of the condominiums sold, we look forward to introducing buyers to this exceptional opportunity to purchase a luxury condominium or villa within an expertly designed development in a private, exclusive setting”.

Beachfront condos at the Shore Club start from $1.4 million, and the six bedroom villas start from $5.5 million. The condos will be ready for occupancy in early 2016.

Dog-Friendly Turks and Caicos Estate Lists for $48 Million

Dallas investor Robert Haas and his wife Candice named the home they built on a Caribbean island “Oliver’s Cove,” after the first of their many rescue dogs. The guesthouse is named after Elmer, another canine family member.

The couple, who spend 60 to 90 days every year on their roughly 6½-acre estate on the island of Parrot Cay in Turks and Caicos, likes to bring two of their dogs with them each time to the house, which has an outdoor dog run with a fountain. But after many years, the Haases, who also have homes in Dallas and Malibu, Calif., have decided to put the property on the market for $48 million, citing the fact that all three of their human children now live on the West Coast.

As for the dogs, “I haven’t had the heart to tell them that we’re selling,” quipped Mr. Haas, 67, who became known in the 1980s for his leveraged buyouts, particularly a deal that combined Dr Pepper Co. and Seven-Up Co. More recently, he has published several books (one of them—“Miracle Man: 100 Days with Oliver”—was inspired by the property’s namesake).

With nearly 800 feet of beach frontage, the property includes a roughly 7,000-square-foot main house with four bedrooms, five full bathrooms and one half bath. Clad in coral stone with a cedar-shingle roof, the main house also has a fitness room and a two-level great room.

With nearly 800 feet of beach frontage, the property includes a roughly 7,000-square-foot main house with four bedrooms, five full bathrooms and one half bath. Clad in coral stone with a cedar-shingle roof, the main house also has a fitness room and a two-level great room. Outside Mr. Haas’s study there is a Zen garden where he likes to spend time meditating. The guesthouse next door, nicknamed “Elmer’s Bay,” measures almost 2,500 square feet, with three bedrooms and three bathrooms. Both houses sit on the sand, each with its own pool.

The roughly 1,000-acre private island is the site of the luxury resort Parrot Cay by COMO. Homeowners on the island have access to hotel amenities, such as room service, housekeeping and spa services. Other owners include Bruce Willis, Donna Karan and Christie Brinkley, who is listing her home there for $9 million.

The property is being sold furnished. Building and furnishing a home on a secluded island that has no stores on it “isn’t easy,” said Mr. Haas, who said barges were used to transport construction materials and furnishings.

The property is listed with Nina Siegenthaler and Joe Zahm of Turks & Caicos Sotheby’s International Realty.

Christie Brinkley’s Beach Home!

Lucky House Parrot Cay

Christie Brinkley’s Beach Home!

The description, “tall willowy and blond,” was considered to be the ideal woman long before the beauty with the smiling eyes, Christie Brinkley, was first discovered in a Paris post office in 1973 by American photographer, Errol Sawyer. As a self-described “California surfer girl,” she certainly never thought of herself as a model, but decided to give it a go when Sawyer introduced her to John Casablancas of Elite Model Management agency in Paris. After talking with him, she flew back to California to meet with Nina Blanchard, the Eileen Ford affiliate in Los Angeles, and from that point was propelled into the the modeling career of a lifetime. Most widely known for her record breaking successive Sports Illustrated swimsuit covers from 1979 to 1981, she also broke the record of having the longest contract in history for Cover Girl that lasted 25 years. Brinkley has graced the covers of almost every fashion magazine, appeared in roles in the National Lampoon’s Vacation films and has now appeared on Broadway as Roxie Hart in Chicago.

What sets Christie aside from most top-tier models is her astute business sense. Starting by producing two of her own calendars after the success of the Sports Illustrated swimsuit calendars, to amassing a fortune in real estate, mostly in the Hamptons, to writing, illustrating, appearing on sitcoms, designing clothing patterns and now with her own wig company, Hair2Wear, Christie has accumulated a net worth over $130 million. Not a flamboyant spender, she takes pride in managing a rather low key lifestyle. Now at age 60, Brinkley is selling her beach home where she and her children happily frolicked and spent valuable time together away from the eyes of the paparazzi, at her private beachfront island paradise in Parrot Cay in the British West Indies’ Turks And Caicos islands.

Parrot Cay is a private oceanfront resort of 1,000 unspoiled acres along more than a mile of white powder beach. Brinkley’s Lucky House is sited on 1.6 acres facing ocean sunsets from its 200 feet of beach. Surrounded by lush tropical landscaping, the 3,400-square-foot main house has three bedrooms, all with ocean views, four baths with the master suite located in its own detached pavilion only steps from the sand. Interiors exude the tropical feel with whitewashed walls, wood beams and floors. Outside is the infinity pool, terrace and gardens with a two bedroom guest house/staff quarters with additional storage and golf buggy garage. Resort amenities include the award-winning COMO Shambhala Retreat, which provides a range of holistic, Asian-inspired therapies as well as Yoga and Pilates. Services include estate management, private butler service, daily maid service, and in-villa dining. When not in residence, the property can be put into rental management and has been rented for over $8,000 per day.  For more information.

Christie Brinkley’s private tropical paradise retreat is now on the market. Previously priced at $10.75 million, now reduced to $9 million.
