Hey, Tiger: $16.8 million Vancouver home features 'resort style backyard' with putting green

If you really need to work on your short game, this $16.8 million Shaughnessy mansion might be for you.

While it seems like a lot to spend on being able to putt a round in the backyard, the four-hole green will be open, no matter the weather. And, lets be honest, if you're spending nearly $17 million on a house you probably have the scratch to put in a little mini-golf castle or a big seated Abraham Lincoln waggling his legs.

The house, located at 1626 Avondale Ave., isn't all about golf, though. There's also a spectacular deck and pool area, with a jacuzzi and a large set of doors opening from one of the living rooms out onto the said deck.

The front yard also has an interesting feature, with a couple of mature cherry trees offering prime blossom selfie opportunities in the spring.

Of note as well, according to the real estate agent is the "durable slate roof" and "spray foam insulation" if the yard fails to impress.

Inside isn't bad, too, with lots of hardwood floors, little chandeliers and the requisite five bedrooms and eight bathrooms.
