100 Acres of Genoa Splendor — Two Home Sites, 360° Views Rarely does raw land offer this kind of drama. Perched above Jacks Valley and gated for privacy, this 100-acre parcel unfolds along a two-mile scenic private drive that climbs through Water Canyon before opening onto sweeping, unobstructed 360-degree views — Genoa's historic valley floor, the patchwork of Jacks Valley below, and the full sweep of the Carson Range rising to the west. Golf course, meadow, mountain, valley, and city views layer together from nearly every angle of the property. The land offers two distinct potential home sites, giving a builder or owner flexibility to choose the most dramatic vantage point — or to create a family compound with separate residences. Bordering BLM and National Forest land as well as adjoining undeveloped acreage, the setting feels far larger than its acreage, with a mix of level building pads, sloped terrain, and wooded, rural character that horses and outdoor enthusiasts will — horses okay. The property is served by a private, gated, road. A well and septic system is needed, and utilities are not yet in place — a true blank canvas for a custom mountain estate. Minutes from historic Genoa — Nevada's oldest settlement — and a short drive to Lake Tahoe, and world-class skiing, this is a rare opportunity to build where the view does the talking.

Eagle Ridge at Genoa, located between Genoa Lane and Foothill Road, is a residential and golf-adjacent Genoa neighborhood with Sierra foothill views and quiet cul-de-sacs. The neighborhood reads as contemporary mountain-suburban, with stucco-and-stone exteriors, wide driveways, and streets that track the slope toward open rangeland. The character concentrates around the Genoa Lane corridor by Mormon Station State Historic Park, where porch-fronted storefronts and heritage buildings set a small-town pace. Community pillars include the Genoa Bar & Saloon, the Genoa Courthouse Museum, and the annual Candy Dance Arts & Crafts Faire grounds. Trailheads and ranchland edges shape daily routines, while nearby fairways and valley vistas keep the horizon in view.
