Description
Tucked quietly into a cul-de-sac within the 24/7 guard-gated community of The Hills, 5 Championship Drive occupies one of the rarest settings in the neighborhood — an extraordinary .85-acre homesite with approximately 287 feet of golf course frontage along Hole 9 of the Jack Nicklaus Signature Course. Once home to Jack Nicklaus himself, this property offers a combination of history, privacy, scale, & positioning that simply cannot be recreated today. The lot immediately separates this property from nearly everything else in The Hills with expansive golf course frontage, mature trees, generous setbacks, & wide fairway views that create an uncommon sense of space rarely found in golf course communities. Positioned on one of the community’s most recognizable streets, the home was intentionally designed to stay connected to the landscape with nearly every major living space engaging the outdoors & golf course beyond. All bedrooms are ensuite, creating privacy & comfort throughout the home, while a spacious detached casita offers tremendous flexibility for guests, multigenerational living, long-term visitors, or a private office setup. The casita includes a large bathroom & generous walk-in closet, allowing it to function as a true extension of the home rather than simply additional guest space. The outdoor living experience is equally compelling with a massive covered patio featuring a fireplace & expansive entertaining area positioned to fully capture the peaceful golf course setting. Upstairs, the primary suite opens onto a private balcony overlooking the course & is complemented by a recently renovated primary bathroom. Additional highlights include an oversized 4-car garage & a location within walking distance to The Hills clubhouse & restaurant — a convenience rarely found on lots of this scale & caliber. Properties with this combination of provenance, frontage, walkability, privacy, lot size, & overall positioning rarely become available within The Hills.
