It’s time again for the High & the Low, a Curbed Austin column chronicling the most and least expensive homes sold in Austin in the last seven days. (Sales information gathered from Zillow, Redfin, and Realtor.) Let’s see what buyers and sellers bought and paid for this week!
A new Lake Austin home with more than 208 feet of waterfront and views of the Pennybacker Bridge was this week’s most expensive sale, and it went for a price higher than we’ve seen in a while. The two-story, 8,550-square foot house is clad in stone and stucco and has six bedrooms and seven and a half bathrooms.
The interior sports high-end features and finishes—including white-oak flooring and millwork, Venetian plaster walls & ceilings, stone from Portugal, and Italian marble—but the lakeside outdoor spaces, with abundant living areas, a negative-edge pool, a dock with lake access threaten to steal the show.
