About This Property
Bordering one of Tahoe's most recreation-rich forest corridors, this mountain home claims a level 10,000-sf lot in the North Upper Truckee neighborhood, just moments from trail access leading toward Echo Summit. The wide front elevation delivers excellent curb appeal with a 3-car garage, generous covered entry, and varied rooflines. Lap cedar siding, cedar shingles, and stone accents provide a classic Tahoe aesthetic. The south-facing front draws strong natural light, while the fully fenced, flat backyard offers easy year-round usability. A split-level entry sets up an ideal flow, leading to upstairs living with cathedral ceilings, an exposed ridge beam, and a substantial stone fireplace. Warm tones and distressed acacia hardwood flooring elevate the main level. The open layout connects the living room to a large dining area, built-in wine bar, and a well-appointed kitchen with a central L-shaped island, farmhouse sink, two dishwashers, built-in commercial refrigerator, and a walk-in pantry. The upper-level primary suite is oversized and comfortable, featuring its own stone fireplace, a large walk-in closet, and a bath with an extensive dual vanity, 72-inch soaking tub, and stall shower. The lower level centers around a welcoming family room with a third fireplace and direct access to the yard, dual rear decks, and the new 7-person hot tub. Three additional bedrooms and two full baths, including a secondary suite, complete this floor. Multiple outdoor areas create easy indoor-outdoor living and great connectivity to the backyard. Tastefully furnished, the home blends comfort, scale, and timeless Tahoe style in a recreation-rich setting.

MLS closed sales, with duplicate ingestions collapsed and lease records excluded, so each row is a distinct transaction. Rows marked county record come from the assessor's deed data, which reaches back further than the MLS feed; rows marked via a listing site fill the years the feed misses using that site's public sale record.

Land Coverage (TRPA)
Tahoe Regional Planning Agency impervious-coverage budget for this parcel
TRPA caps how much of each Tahoe Basin parcel can be covered by impervious surfaces — buildings, driveways, decks. Estimated coverage — data: TRPA GIS / Tahoe Open Data. The only authoritative determination of coverage and land capability is a Land Capability Verification through TRPA; actual allowable coverage can differ due to verifications, transfers, banked coverage, or deed restrictions.

California FAIR Plan fire policy + a DIC wrap policy, the usual Tahoe setup
Estimate from this ZIP's California FAIR Plan rates (Plan data as of 6/30/2026, with the 29.1% increase effective 10/15/2026) on an estimated rebuild cost, plus a DIC policy at 20–40% of the FAIR premium. Not a bindable quote; a local broker quote depends on the home's age, roof, defensible space and claims history.
