1/13Photography Courtesy of Sotheby's International RealtyThe luxurious listing for Bruce Willis’s vacation home—a treasure trove of Turks and Caicos real estate—has gone live after the actor announced he was selling it last week. Sitting on Parrot Cay island, the compound is asking $33 million, and would set a record for the string of islands should it sell for that price. Parrot Cay is known as a haven for celebrity privacy, with only about a dozen residences to be counted as neighbors. Donna Karan and Christie Brinkley both own adjacent properties.The home has been with Willis for nearly two decades, with the actor first scooping it up in 2000 and renovating it extensively. Another update came just last year, bringing the compound to 13,500-square-feet. That footprint includes five bedrooms in the main home and nearby casitas; two three-bedroom guest villas lie elsewhere on the property’s 7.37 acres.Asian-inspired and Atlantic-adjacent, the compound sits on the waterfront and exudes Elysian energy; extensive gardens, an especially-designated yoga space, and an outdoor pool with views of the ocean all transfuse tranquility. The exteriors and interiors alike are built almost entirely from wood, either natural finished or painted a soft white, to transcribe the natural allure into even the man-made aspects of the property. Private coves along the property’s 1,200 feet of water frontage provide a home to nesting sea turtles.The sale of the estate comes as Willis and wife Emma Heming Willis, who married on the island, prepare to move full-time from the East to the West Coast; their Central Park West apartment sold for $17.75 million in January of last year, while their Bedford Corners home hit the market just a few months ago asking $12.95 million.Photography Courtesy of Sotheby's International RealtyThe luxurious listing for Bruce Willis’s vacation home—a treasure trove of Turks and Caicos real estate—has gone live after the actor announced he was selling it last week.
