About This Property

Tahoe, Just As You Imagined It. Hidden among towering cedars on a beautifully wooded 15,000 sq. ft. parcel in one of Tahoe Pines' most desirable locations, this classic log home offers the rare opportunity to enjoy both the serenity of the forest and the lake as part of your daily rhythm. Just six level blocks from the shoreline, you'll often find yourself reaching for a beach towel rather than your car keys. Originally built in 1961 and thoughtfully updated throughout the 1990s and early 2000s, the home blends timeless Tahoe character with modern comfort. Vaulted ceilings, exposed timber framing, warm log walls, clear Douglas fir hardwood floors, a striking stone fireplace, and numerous picture and casement windows create an inviting great room filled with natural light and mountain air. The beautifully updated kitchen features stone countertops, a brand-new cooktop, integrated paneled refrigeration, and quality wood cabinetry. A Presidential composition roof with six inches of insulation enhances year-round comfort. Offering three bedrooms, all with views of the lush surroundings, two baths, approx. 1,304 square feet, a four-car garage with a tandem third bay, a circular driveway, and abundant off-street parking, the home is beautifully furnished, including much of the Ralph Lauren furnishings and décor. Tahoe Pines is cherished for its low elevation, easy access, quiet beach, optional HOA pier, Blackwood Canyon trails, nearby bike path, and proximity to Homewood Mountain Resort, with a forthcoming gondola!
