Texas’ luxury real estate market is showing no sign of slowing, with the reveal that a sprawling, $65 million estate in Houston is the most expensive listing for sale in the state.
A new national real estate report by online real estate marketplace Point2Homes determined The Lodge at Hunters Creek – a nine-acre estate located along Buffalo Bayou at 107 Timberwilde Ln. – is not only the highest priced property in Texas, it’s also the No. 8 most expensive residential property for sale in the nation.
If this estate seems familiar, it was also the priciest home for sale in Texas in 2022. At that time, it was going for $60 million. It was also on sale in 2021, at the current $65 million price. TexasAgs says that the owners are Michael and Colleen Holthouse; Michael founded Paranet, which was acquired by Sprint for $425 million in the late 90s.
Currently listed by Billy Dolan at Carolwood Real Estate, the property was built in 2005 and boasts a gigantic 22,000-square-foot main house, complete with six bedrooms and eight bathrooms. Each bedroom contains its own en-suite bathroom.
Floor-to-ceiling windows can be found throughout the house, allowing guests to get a picturesque view of the backyard pool, the expertly manicured garden, and the forest surrounding the home. The solariums are the ideal spot to sit and daydream, or perhaps do some yoga.
Guests can choose to relax in one of the many lounge areas throughout the house, including a cozy-yet-sophisticated study that comes with a fireplace, spiral staircase, and multiple bookshelves along the walls.

Tall, lusciously green trees wrap the spacious property with the perfect amount of privacy, but a personal 24-hour guard house also provides a sense of security for owners and guests. The gravel driveway into the property is a noticeable difference from the asphalt and paved driveways Houston is known for.
A two bedroom, two bathroom guest house with a private pool and spa can be found farther away from the main house for added separation.
Other over-the-top amenities at The Lodge include a multi-car custom showcase garage, a flexible sport court, an outdoor kitchen and bar, an on-site well, and more.
With this hefty price tag, The Lodge has received national attention, most recently in the Robb Report. More information about the property can be found on carolwoodre.com.
