Located on the Texas Gulf Coast, Wolf Point Golf Club is a 1,688-acre compound with an exclusive, world-rated golf course and private 5,000-foot runway with 13,000-square-foot hangar. A world-class golf, hunting, and fishing destination in the waiting, Wolf Point will auction next month No Reserve via Concierge Auctions in cooperation with Rick Doak of Republic Ranches. Bidding will be held February 24-27 via Concierge Auctions' online marketplace, ConciergeAuctions.com, and culminate at a live auction event in Dubai on February 27th.
The crown jewel of Wolf Point is the golf course, named "Texas' most intriguing and secret golf course" by Golf Advisor. Designed by Mike Nuzzo and Don Mahaffey, the 18-hole course has been ranked as one of the top 150 courses in the world, and has earned the nickname, "the St. Andrews of Texas."
"Wolf Point, by any measure, is a world class golf course, and I hope it lives on for many years," stated Mahaffey. "But that's not what I hope for most. The man we built it for played it every day it was 60 degrees or warmer. I once asked why he never takes his clubs when he traveled. He smiled and said, 'Why would I ever play anywhere else?' My strongest hope is it ends up in the hands of someone who learns to love it as much as he did."
The club also features a beautiful clubhouse with his-and-her locker rooms and a large bar and gathering area overlooking the course. The greens were thoughtfully designed to fit into their Gulf Coast surroundings, but to also be as low maintenance as possible. A 12-acre lake provides water for all course irrigation, which can also be refilled via a large irrigation well with a 75 HP submersible pump well. There are also two large barns to house all the equipment necessary for general upkeep, as well as a cart barn.
"The auction presents a rare opportunity to own one of the most exclusive golf courses in America, played by fewer than 200 people in its lifetime, along with a spectacular estate and over 1,000 acres," stated Doak. "The amenities included at Wolf Point are truly priceless. I'm proud to partner with Concierge Auctions to market this incomparable opportunity on a global scale, which will surely result in a favorable outcome for our client and a profitable investment for the buyer."
The course is surrounded by a variety of wildlife including white tail deer, dove, duck, and other animals. The property extends all the way to Carancahua Bay, which opens into Matagorda Bay and could be easily turned into a fishing pier or a boat ramp for potential use as a fishing lodge. The land is currently low fenced, except for the 5,000-foot paved runway and the climate-controlled airplane hangar. Known as Shank and Bank on the Houston Sectional Chart, the airport's runway was recently built to TxDot specifications and can accommodate almost any size aircraft. The hanger holds both 100LL and Jet A aviation fuel and is connected to a large office.
"Wolf Point is an iconic property with limitless potential, which makes it a perfect fit for our platform" stated Chad Roffers, Chairman of Concierge Auctions. "Selling a property of this magnitude would typically take years on the traditional market, whereas our process brings multiple buyers to the table in a matter of weeks. Concierge Auctions has an unrivaled history at marketing these rare properties and orchestrating record-breaking transactions of similar significance, and we're honored to be tasked with the sale of another peerless property. We expect Wolf Point to join the ranks of our many successful marquee sales, including Playa Vista Isle in Hillsboro, Florida, Crespi-Hicks Estate in Dallas, Texas, and Villa Passalacqua in Lake Como, Italy."
The main house sits on an elevated plot of land with incredible views of the course and was constructed to withstand extreme weather, including high winds and forces of hurricanes. The estate features floor-to-ceiling windows, vaulted beamed ceilings, and modern lighting. A state-of-the-art commercial-grade kitchen is the heart of the home, with its stainless steel, stone, and wood finishes. The island and breakfast bar offer casual seating, and opens the kitchen to the great room, which is perfect for entertaining. Additional outdoor features include an infinity-edge swimming pool and many mature trees across acres of lush landscaping, including live oaks and other hardwoods.
Located less than an hour from the coast, Port Lavaca is a haven for sun, water, and nature lovers. The full-service marina is the perfect home base for exploring Matagorda Bay and the Gulf Coast, which is stocked with redfish, trout, flounder, and black drum. The expansive wilderness around the property is the perfect backdrop for hunting, hiking, camping, and horseback riding. Wolf Point Club is an easy flight from most major metropolitan cities in the U.S.
