About This Property
Rarely do homes become available in this highly desirable, generational West Shore enclave. Cherished by the same family since its construction in 1973, 5485 Sacramento Ave is a true legacy property. Positioned as the very last home on a remarkably quiet street, this offering includes the adjacent vacant lot to the south. With Homewood Creek running directly through the extra parcel, you are guaranteed unparalleled privacy and the soothing, year-round sounds of a natural creek. The location is a winter enthusiast’s dream. Both parcels border the south side of Homewood Mountain Resort, offering a short walk to the Quail Chair and the coveted ability to ski right back toward your door when winter conditions permit. In the summer, the extensive West Shore bike path system is just moments away, putting all of the West Shore’s best amenities, beaches, and dining right at your fingertips. Stepping inside, you are greeted by an expansive great room featuring vaulted ceilings, oversized windows that flood the space with natural light, and a grand, floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace. The open layout provides ample space for large living and dining gatherings. The thoughtful floor plan includes two private en-suite bedrooms (one upstairs, one downstairs), plus an oversized third bedroom that offers incredible flexibility for a bunk room, media space, or home office. Outside, a massive wraparound deck creates the perfect stage for summer BBQs and alpine evening gatherings. Plus, keeping your mountain toys organized is effortless with the detached heavy-duty storage shed. Offering the perfect blend of classic Tahoe comfort, unbeatable convenience, and rare natural beauty, this West Shore gem is ready to welcome its next generation of owners for a lifetime of year-round memories.
