Prince's Turks and Caicos compound for sale

[JimmyHoffa 1188]

I'm guessing a little more than a few dollars.

Prince‘s estate is selling off the late singer’s private retreat in Turks and Caicos in a closed bid auction on July 12. While there’s no minimum bid for the property, which is set on five sandy acres on the island of Providenciales, the $100,000 check required of interested buyers for the opportunity to bid offers an idea of the price point.

 

The compound itself is about 10,000 square feet and includes 6 bedrooms and 6 baths. It has two private beaches, a tennis court, and a 200-foot personal dock, but the standout feature pays homage to the music icon: a purple-painted driveway

You have to share the island with that pink house next door.  No thanks

[TornACL 7698]

The tennis court doesn't even appear to have a net. Fuck that.

No shit, and hard surface instead of clay so that's a deal breaker for me.

The pool is way too small

Too many Turks live there

I don’t mind the Turks, but I don’t even know what a Caicos is.

well that's nobody's business but the Turks?

[Liquor and Poker 3659]

Why does it even need a driveway?  For the golf cart?

I'd fill that in with some purple magic sand.
