Overlooking the canyon and pilot hill, the driveway winds along a sea of green grass. When you reach the house, you’ll notice a lovely arbor over a sizable brick patio leading up to elegant glass doors.
A spacious entryway greets you. From here you can access the kitchen, laundry, a guest bath, and two guest bedrooms.
The kitchen is a unique space with room for a large breakfast table and then some. Enjoy the professional size fridge and freezer. You’ll be able to fit everything and more in there! The garden window over the sink plus two large glass doors provide a lovely view of the deck just outside – a wonderful spot to enjoy your morning coffee.
Gather everyone around the custom wooden table made from local cedar. Aged for two years before being built just for this room, it is both functional and beautiful.
Enjoy the afternoon sun streaming in the picture window in your sitting room. With an unencumbered view of the canyon, I could sit here all day! Or relax with guests in your elegant living room with a sophisticated coffered ceiling and more views. From here you have access to the deck just outside… The ideal spot to enjoy the sunset, trust me.
A main floor owner’s suite sits off the living room, with a walk-through closet (yes you read that right!) and its own boudoir. Two guest rooms on the other side of the house share a full bath with walk-in shower, plus a “garden” room with outside access.
Upstairs is the second owner’s suite, plus a large guest bedroom, as well as a fully-lined cedar closet to keep your winter wardrobe safe.
The views from up here make you feel like you’re sleeping among the clouds. The reading nook is great for curling up with a book. An attached bath has dual sinks, private WC, spacious walk-in shower, and a luxurious jetted tub.
On the lowest level you’ll find a great, open room that is perfect for watching the big game, hosting game nights, or just having a quiet place to escape for a bit. Mix up a few cocktails at the deco-style bar and have a party! You won’t have to worry about getting chilly down here with a wood stove to warm things up.
Movie nights will be unlike any others in your private theater room. Complete with vintage theater seats, projector, and big screen, all you’ll need to do is pop some popcorn and pick the flick!
A Large brick patio rests under the shade of a large tree, creating a peaceful escape behind the house. Nearby, you can get crafty in the workshop attached to the two-car garage.
Take a stroll through your own orchard and enjoy the view from your kitchen deck. The views out here are both humbling and inspirational while you relish the summer orchestra of birds & fresh breezes.
It’s a nature lover’s paradise rich with misty morning walks on trails that lead all the way to Tahoe. Minutes from town with art, culture, food, and drink plus a year-round farmers market and more. It’s time to put down some roots & stay awhile!
From staycations to big get-togethers, you can have it all here. Welcome, home.
