Fired Up By the Masters and RBC Heritage? See These Homes for Sale By Golf Courses
These five homes for sale are right by golf courses, so the beautiful game never has to end.


Charlotte Gorbold
Your jaw dropped in shocked silence when Rory McIlroy's putt slithered past the hole, sending him into a sudden-death playoff against Justin Rose. You stood, too nervy to stay seated, as the men played it out, dripping in tension. And then: The elated release as McIlroy did what he came to Augusta to do and took home the green jacket. As he cried into the green in joy, you at last let out that shout you were holding in.
Now, what if you could step outside your house and see that beautiful game any day of the week?
As part of Kiplinger's "Listed" series, I gathered several gorgeous homes for sale now that are all right by a golf course. Just imagine watching the Heritage Classic from your backyard pool knowing you can walk over and get in a round any time you want.
