Tucked away in the Virginia City Highlands, this one of a kind property offers a rare blend of privacy, character, and natural beauty. A seasonal creek winds through the land, creating a peaceful setting that feels worlds away while still being within reach of Reno and Carson City. Step onto the expansive deck and take in the gorgeous, wide open views. This is the kind of space that invites quiet mornings, evening sunsets, and everything in between. The setting is private, serene, and truly special. Inside, the home showcases thoughtful updates and timeless craftsmanship. The remodeled kitchen is both functional and stylish, featuring a Café double oven and induction cooktop, perfect for anyone who loves to cook or entertain. Throughout the home, you will find stunning old growth wood, prized for its density, strength, stability, and long lasting durability. This home was originally built as a family residence and has only had two owners, a testament to the care and pride poured into it over the years. Recent improvements include new laminate flooring and a partially updated roof, with half replaced just last year. A standout feature you will not find every day is the built in steam room, perfectly sized to create your own private wellness retreat right at home. Additional highlights include a washer and dryer that will remain with the property, both purchased within the last few years, along with two sheds that provide extra storage and flexibility for your needs. If you are looking for something truly unique with character, privacy, and natural beauty, this property delivers in a way that is hard to replicate.
