Duluth Auction Opens With Luxury Items at Huge Discounts

If you love scoring a big deal, you’ll want to move quickly on this one — BIDDING STARTS NOW!

The next Duluth Seize the Deal Auction opens at 12:00 a.m. Wednesday, August 19, with thousands of dollars worth of big-ticket items up for grabs. But there’s a catch: bidding closes at the end of the day Thursday, August 20, so you won’t have much time to make your move.

And there are some seriously tempting items in this round.

The biggest item is a 2026 Viking Regal P+ Hot Tub from Pools of Fun, valued at $8,495, with an opening bid of just $3,400. Imagine having that waiting for you when a Duluth winter decides to turn the temperature to "absolutely not.”

There’s plenty more, too. This auction includes gorgeous jewelry from Nummi Jewelers, including white topaz and diamond earrings and a diamond pendant, plus a retro-inspired Bulova Jet Star watch and a $500 Nummi Jewelers gift certificate.

With opening bids well below retail value, there’s potential for some huge savings, but the clock will be ticking from the moment bidding begins.

Remarkable Property Now Listed For Nearly $12 Million In Duluth, Minnesota

Set on more than 20 acres above Lake Superior, this Nor-Son-built estate sits right up against the Hawk Ridge Nature Reserve, one of the most protected and scenic stretches of land anywhere near Duluth. It was finished in 2015, and at nearly 10,900 square feet, it offers a sense of scale that is hard to find this far north.

The kitchen is the heart of the main floor, tucked beneath a curved, Tuscan-style barrel ceiling. Two islands give you room to spread out, a walk-in pantry sits just off to the side, and the appliance package is built for cooking for a crowd rather than a weeknight dinner.

Step into the main living area, and the ceilings climb. A large fireplace anchors the room, which then opens into a dedicated piano room, and that tells you plenty about how the whole house is meant to be enjoyed.

The showstopper, though, might be the room the sellers call "The Lodge." At just under 1,300 square feet, it plays like a private Northwoods getaway dropped inside the house, all reclaimed wood and exposed post-and-beam work.

There is a stone fireplace, a wet bar, a wine room that holds roughly 2,000 bottles, and a screened porch right off it for the warmer months.

The owner's suite is practically its own apartment. At around 2,800 square feet on the main level, it includes two separate sitting areas, his-and-hers closets, a marble bathroom, a steam room, and yet another fireplace.

Head upstairs and you will find a loft, another guest suite, and a home office, all opening onto a large deck with long views of the lake and the trees. There is even a separate guest suite over the garage for company.

However, as impressive as the inside is, the outside really sets this one apart. There, you'll find a 1,000-square-foot screened veranda with its own outdoor kitchen that looks over a 36-by-18 heated pool and the water beyond.

Keep walking, and the grounds open into an apple orchard, a stocked trout pond, and a skating pond with a warming house for Minnesota winters.

The property also backs directly onto hundreds of acres of protected land at Hawk Ridge, and a neighboring 100-acre equestrian farm can be purchased separately.

All of this luxury is just minutes from downtown Duluth, the airport, and major medical facilities. Take a look through this impressive estate, which went on the market in June 2026 for $11,999,000.
