Luxury home sales in Reunion Resort continue to make headlines, and one of the most notable transactions of the past quarter was the sale of 1045 Jack Nicklaus Court in the exclusive Bear’s Den neighborhood. Listed and sold by Luis German of STORY GROUP, the property closed for $2,175,000, making it the highest residential sale in Reunion Resort over the past 90 days.
THE HOME
Located behind the private gates of Bear’s Den, this 8-bedroom estate offered the perfect blend of luxury, comfort, and resort-style living. Built in 2018 and meticulously maintained as a private second home, the property had never been rented and was presented fully furnished and turnkey.
The home featured more than 5,600 square feet of living space with 12-foot ceilings, eight full bathrooms, two half bathrooms, and an impressive floor plan designed for entertaining large groups while still providing privacy for owners and guests.
One of the standout features was the chef’s kitchen, highlighted by a dramatic double-island design, high-gloss cabinetry with illuminated glass uppers, quartz countertops, premium JennAir appliances, and three dishwashers. Corner sliding glass doors seamlessly connected the interior living spaces to the outdoor entertaining area.
Outside, the resort-style backyard offered a heated pool and spa, sun shelf, in-pool table and seating, waterfall pergola, gas fire pit, outdoor fireplace, summer kitchen, and motorized screens enclosing the covered lanai. A private gate provided direct access to Golden Bear Park, a residents-only amenity exclusive to Bear’s Den homeowners.
Additional highlights included multiple primary suites, a second-floor entertainment loft with wet bar and pool table, private balconies, two laundry rooms, and a whole-home audio system throughout the interior and outdoor living spaces.

REUNION RESORT

One of Reunion’s most unique advantages is its zoning for short-term rentals, allowing owners the flexibility to use their property as a primary residence, vacation home, investment property, or a combination of all three.
Within Reunion, Bear’s Den represents one of the community’s most exclusive neighborhoods, offering private gates, direct access to Golden Bear Park, and a collection of luxury homes positioned around the Nicklaus golf course.
