Two Austin custom home builders are building a Southern Living magazine showcase home on Lake Travis that ultimately will be sold for $1.5 million.
Currently under construction in Lago Vista at Waterford on Lake Travis, the 4,400-square-foot house will be finished around the holidays and will be shown to the public as a fundraiser for several weeks in February 2013.
The Austin showcase home features wood beams, limestone rock and panoramic windows that create a strong sense of the outdoors, Grimm said.
Henley hopes the Southern Living showcase home draws about 15,000 people when it’s open Feb. 8-24, 2013. Though ticket prices have to be set, the proceeds from the home tour will benefit the Ronald McDonald House Charities of Austin and Operation Finally Home.
