Description

Located on one of the most sought after streets in Lyford Cay, POINCIANA, with its 5 spacious bedrooms and 6 and a half bathrooms, sits comfortably on a 3/4 acre canal front lot with 176 feet of frontage.

Ideally located in a 1,000-acre secure enclave a short distance from Nassau International Airport, the Club enjoys generally warmer winters and cooler summers than those typical of the Florida coast.
