Goldeneye was originally built by novelist Ian Fleming, who created the James Bond character and wrote all of his Bond novels while living there. Fleming purchased 15 acres (61,000 m2) of land on a former donkey racetrack in 1946 after hearing about the property from a friend. The home was built on a cliff overlooking a private beach based on a sketch by the author and stressed such simple features as glassless windows.
