Property Description
This unique home is centrally located in the Al Tahoe Subdivision within a short stroll from Lake Tahoe, beaches, bike trails, shopping, restaurants and more. The city setting is more often sought after for several reasons; less snow, close to the action, vacation rental income, walk almost anywhere and much, much more. In regards to income, this home is also set up with the option of having a rental unit downstairs with all the amenities of a separate home, including a full kitchen, laundry area, full bathroom, separate heating system, hot water heater, ample parking & storage.
The exterior of the home was tastefully thought out with a blend of color and craftsman style features. The home is wrapped in cedar siding from horizontal to batt n’ board styles with cantilevers, dormers and architectural accents such as exposed beams and custom copper banister. The landscaping is both lush and plentiful and the rear yard is fully fenced with access to the 2nd story deck where an 8-man hot tub and views of Heavenly ski resort await.
When it comes to Lake Tahoe real estate, the interior of this home is second to none. The Zen-like feel hits at the front door with a water feature and pleasant blend of rich wood-works, natural stone and copper accents. From there you enter the main living area that’s adorned with Brazilian cherry hardwood floors, vaulted ceilings with skylights, faux painting and accent lighting from head to toe. The kitchen is perfect for entertaining as it’s the hub of the home. It’s balanced decor is enhanced with cherry cabinets, granite counters and stainless appliances. The rest of the upstairs continues to impress, including the Master Suite that’s complete with spacious living quarters, walk-in closet, stone covered stall shower and even a peek-a-boo lake view.
The downstairs is a separate unit that could easily be converted back to an additional family or game room if desired. It currently rents to a single woman for $1200/month for those that are looking to cover some of their debt service on the purchase. The unit includes 2 bedrooms, a full bath and comfortable living area. Access to the unit is completely separate from the upstairs. Please take the tour to view more exciting details about this lovely newer home.

Property Description:
This home sits on the one of the most amazing locations in all of South Lake Tahoe. Sitting high on the hill in a private cul-de-sac, this brand new, ultra-custom home will impress even the most particular of buyers. Most home buyers come to South Lake Tahoe to get away from city life, to have a place away from the hustle and bustle, a place with no neighbors on a decent size plot of land. This home offers both. This custom beauty sits on a 3/4 acre parcel that’s almost completely surrounded by forestry owned land. The views are nearly 360 and run from Mt. Tallac, across Echo Summit, passed Kirkwood in the distance, ending all the way around to Heavenly ski resort. What until you see Mt. Tallac with its snow filled cross fill your great room windows. Pictures do not do it justice.
Never fear, this is not just a typical monster home that takes advantage of precious utilities. Energy was taken into sincere consideration with a 98% radiant in-floor heating system that goes through the entire home and oversized garage. Each area of the home is zoned differently for maximum efficiency and/or climate options for each individual staying in one of the 6 spacious bedrooms. Of course, there’s still 4 separate gas fireplaces to set the atmosphere on those snowy winter nights.
This is a spacious, 4-story home, but for those with a distaste for walking up stairs, don’t worry, take the elevator from the garage with all the groceries and all of your luggage. If you’ve just come in from the cold and a long day of skiing, chose a warm up option — perhaps the jacuzzi tub, steam shower or even a cedar lined sauna! With resort like amenities, breathtaking views and amazing wood works throughout, the savvy buyer will recognize this home as a worthy investment in even the toughest of markets.
Offered at $1,575,000

Property Description
This custom mountain home was just recently completed and offers one of the best settings in Tahoe. The 14,000 sf lot that this magnificent home sits on backs up to acres of National Forest land near the base of Heavenly Ski Resort. A good skier could probably make the traverse to the back yard of this home, but of course you’d be skiing out of bounds.

A massive paving stone drive leads to a nearly 900 sf 3-car garage. The backyard is landscaped and fully fenced with a rear gate that allows access to the forest for your hiking, biking or skiing pleasure.
The interior is made up of the finest quality materials. All of the doors, millworks and custom cabinetry are made of vertical grain Doug-Fir, who’s lighter coloration contrasts well with rich teak hardwood floors and custom fabricated granite counter tops. There are 3 separate gas fireplaces; great room, downstairs family room, and the Master Suite, that are all wrapped in natural stone and include built-in entertainment options. The Master Suite includes a massive walk-in closet, 6′ jetted tub with forested views, a large stall shower and his/her vanities. A vast 2nd story composite deck allows for entertaining & BBQ’s or a peaceful night of stargazing after a great day on the slopes. This home is truly immaculate and a great investment property!
