Tilloo Pond, an enchanting island estate in the Abacos, has been named Home of the Year in its price category by a world class luxury real estate magazine.
The 11-acre oceanfront estate was short listed by the staff of Unique Homes and then opened to online voting.
The property is listed exclusively by Coldwell Banker Lightbourn Realty.
Unique Homes kicked off its 40th year by selecting 40 favorite listings from 1,000 pages of 2010 listings for a special Homes of the Year section, according to Mark Moffa, managing editor of the magazine.
Unique Homes website visitors were asked to vote for their favorites. Tilloo Pond beat the other nine finalists in its price category.
The sea to sea property boasts its own beach, protected private dock and a day dock on the Sea of Abaco. The uniquely designed 5,400 square foot home has a beautiful vaulted ceiling fashioned from carved, wooden beams. It has exquisite furnishings and high end finish work, including granite countertops, travertine tile and exotic hardwood.
“I’m not surprised Tilloo Pond won the award,” said listing agent Mailin Sands.
“As soon as it was nominated, I researched the other properties and none had anything close to the beauty of the Abaco Cays, coupled with the incredible craftsmanship and high quality finishes that this property has. CEOs have stayed on the property and celebrities have visited. It’s the perfect combination of privacy and luxury in the most beautiful island setting.”
Mrs. Sands sees a strong 2011 for Abaco real estate as prices have been adjusting to the markets and buyer confidence is increasing.
