About This Property

This beautifully refreshed flat-top A-frame packs a punch, combining modern mountain style, thoughtful functionality, and an exceptional Truckee location. Featuring two bedrooms, two baths, a versatile mezzanine, and a detached two-car garage, the home backs directly to Forest Service land in coveted Ponderosa Palisades—just minutes from downtown Truckee. Step out your back door and directly into miles of National Forest trails for hiking, mountain biking, skiing, snowmobiling and winter adventures. The heavy lifting has already been done, with extensive improvements thoughtfully and cohesively executed throughout. Modern touches in every corner of the house including real oak flooring, low-pile wool carpeting, new energy efficient window coverings, low-VOC interior paint, and large primary bedroom windows framing peaceful forest views. Loads of exterior upgrades including extensive fire-hardening work, defensible space, tree and brush removal. As an added bonus, a one-year driveway snow-plowing contract has already been paid. With Northstar, Palisades Tahoe, Alpine Meadows, and Sugar Bowl nearby, this home offers the quintessential Tahoe lifestyle with a fresh, tailored design aesthetic. Located in Placer County with no HOA, the property may also offer the possibility of short-term rental use, subject to current county permitting requirements. Move-in-ready style, direct access to the forest, and a highly desirable location close to downtown Truckee make this a not-to-be missed gem.

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.
