Two high-end Central Texas properties — one an architectural showpiece in Austin, the other a golf-and-lake retreat in Horseshoe Bay — are heading to the online auction block this month, and both are being offered with starting bids that are less than half their previous list prices.
Interluxe Auctions, which describes itself as the leading online luxury real estate auction marketplace, will open bidding on both properties Monday, October 26, 2026 at 9:00 a.m. CDT. The Modern Rollingwood Sanctuary in Austin is a contemporary residence with indoor-outdoor living just minutes from downtown, while The Horseshoe Bay Golf Course and Waterfront Estate offers Lake LBJ access and sits alongside the 12th-hole peninsula green of the Apple Rock course.
The Modern Rollingwood Sanctuary | Austin, Texas
Bidding opens October 26th.
Previously listed for $3.99 million.
Starting bid: $1.75 million.
Located in Rollingwood, one of Austin’s most sought-after residential neighborhoods, the property combines privacy and architectural sophistication with close proximity to the city center. The home sits beneath a canopy of mature trees, giving it a secluded feel while remaining walkable to Zilker Park and less than 10 minutes from downtown Austin, Barton Springs, and the shops and restaurants of South Congress. It’s a blend of quiet neighborhood living and easy access to the city’s cultural, recreational, and culinary offerings.
The 4,171±-square-foot contemporary residence includes five bedrooms, four full and two half bathrooms, and a design that emphasizes indoor-outdoor living. Black-framed glass expanses, wide-plank wood flooring, Brazilian Garapa wood accents, and natural materials create a warm, modern feel. Large sliding doors open to a private pool and spa courtyard, covered entertaining areas, and landscaped grounds. The open-concept kitchen features a 14±-foot island, custom cabinetry, and premium Dacor appliances. The main-level primary suite has direct access to the pool and gardens, dual closets, and Italian and Turkish marble finishes. An additional en-suite guest bedroom and office are also on the main level, while upstairs there are three bedrooms, a game room, a second laundry room, and an outdoor terrace.
The Modern Rollingwood Sanctuary is being offered in cooperation with Kathryn Scarborough of Engel & Völkers Austin.
The Horseshoe Bay Golf Course and Waterfront Estate | Horseshoe Bay, Texas
Bidding opens October 26th.
Previously listed for $3.95 million.
Starting bid: $1.5 million.
On the shores of Lake LBJ and adjacent to the Apple Rock Golf Course, this estate combines waterfront recreation, golf, and resort-style luxury. The property sits alongside the dramatic 12th-hole peninsula green of the Robert Trent Jones, Sr.-designed course, offering sweeping views of both the water and fairways. Located about an hour from Austin, Horseshoe Bay is a popular destination for luxury lakeside living in the Texas Hill Country.
The 4,348±-square-foot residence is designed to take advantage of its setting, with a dramatic sliding glass wall that opens the great room and kitchen to more than 2,700± square feet of covered terraces, a private pool and oversized spa, and an outdoor kitchen. A private dock with boat lift and wave runner ramps provides direct Lake LBJ access, and a spacious sun deck adds more entertaining space.
The five-bedroom home features en-suite accommodations throughout, including two main-level suites and three upstairs. An interior elevator, game and media room, oversized two-car garage, and separate golf-cart bay add convenience. With an extensive short-term rental history, the property is one of the few income-producing opportunities of this scale in such a coveted waterfront and golf course location on Lake LBJ.
The Horseshoe Bay Golf Course and Waterfront Estate is being offered in cooperation with Kale Stephens of Horseshoe Bay Living.
Bidding for both properties will take place online exclusively at www.Interluxe.com beginning Monday, October 26, 2026, at 9:00 a.m. CDT. Previews will be held Friday, October 23rd, from 11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.; Saturday, October 24th, from 11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.; and Sunday, October 25th, from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. Buyer’s agents are fully protected, and a commission is being offered.
