Located on the West Shore of Lake Tahoe, this custom 4-bedroom retreat offers the ultimate luxury: a backyard that backs directly to National Forest land. It delivers the perfect balance of fresh, modern mountain living and peaceful, wooded seclusion. Step right out your back door to explore miles of forested trails, or head out to enjoy the very best of the West Shore. You are steps from the Rubicon Trail, minutes from first tracks at Homewood Mountain Resort, and a quick bike ride to lazy beach days at Sugar Pine Point State Park. A covered front porch welcomes you into a bright, open main level designed for gathering. Rich wood floors and warm timber beams bring classic Tahoe character to the space. The living area flows into a dining space and a gorgeous kitchen. With a beautifully appointed primary suite and a powder room also on the main floor, single-level living is easy. Upstairs, three additional bedrooms and a laundry room give family and friends plenty of space to settle in. One of the bedrooms features its own private deck—the perfect, quiet spot for a morning cup of coffee. Outside, the level lot is built for easy entertaining. A stone patio offers a great space for summer dinners under the pines, complete with your very own bocce ball court. An attached one-car garage handles the gear and everyday convenience. A Tahoe retreat with the option to purchase mostly furnished.
