On to the Back Nine

DeBordieu’s #10

Ok…..you’ve tallied up your score, stopped by the 19th Hole for a sandwich and your favorite beverage. You've got your second wind. You are ready to tackle DeBordieu’s back nine. C’mon now….you can ‘Dieu” this!

“Although it is a slight dogleg left and you will want to keep your drive to the right, beware of the stand of pines on that side which will block your approach shot, should you find your ball behind them. The fairway slopes devilishly downward toward the right, guiding your ball in the direction of the trees. The green is protected to the right and left front by the Dyes’ ever present bunkers.”

But wait,….there, right off the green….you see a small pink surveyor's ribbon, indicating that there is a lot for sale. You think to yourself, “Whoa….what a spectacular view I would have if I built a house right there!” And you would be right!

Click on one of these pictures for details on that great lot. Then email me at TroiKaz@DeBordieu.com, or call me 843-455-4523, and let’s go check it out!

Rub-a-dub TUB????? or Luxury Shower?

What's your preference?

As stated in an article in the Charlotte Observer today, many folks in the remodeling or building process are opting to do away with the over-sized whirlpool or garden tub and go with a luxury shower. That's true also with some homes at DeBordieu, but by in large, we find more Whirlpool Tub/Luxury Shower combos.

Pictured here are some of the Master Baths in homes currently on the market that feature Luxury Showers.

Remember the Bagpipes on Hole #9?
The private DeBordieu Club Golf Course opened for play in 1987. I remember, like it was yesterday, seeing and hearing that bagpiper walk very slowly down hole number nine toward the crowd of eager DeBordieu Club members waiting to tee off. It was a great moment! You won’t hear the bagpipes today, but here’s what you can expect from hole #9:
“The Dyes require that you finish the first half of the course with a blind drive on this tricky par five. Knock your ball up onto the hill rising 13 feet from the lake level. Stay toward the right, away from a long finger of lake that runs along the left. Where it ends, a thick natural area begins. Keep your approach shot straight, for the left is guarded by mounds and pot bunkers, with bunkers on the right and behind the green.”

There is a great lot for sale on number nine. For details, click on the picture, email TroiKaz@DeBordieu.com, or call me at 843-455-4523.
