About This Property
Tucked away in a peaceful setting on a quiet street, in a special micro-neighborhood within Tahoe Donner, sits this darling two-story gambrel on a sunny, level homesite. Current owners have meticulously loved and renovated this charmer from top to bottom for over 20 years, but now it's ready for some new memory-makers. The prow-front wall of windows exudes a nostalgic cabin vibe while letting in all the natural light that you love. Host BBQ's, gather for corn hole or plan your next adventure on the oversized sun-drenched deck. Upgrades include permitted addition of mudroom and addition of 3rd bedroom, newer appliances, bathroom remodel, wood railings and stairs, and tankless water heater. New owners will enjoy all that Tahoe Donner has to offer, including championship golf, cross-country and downhill skiing with a new state of the art ski lodge, miles of hiking and biking trails, Trout Creek Recreation Center, Alder Creek Adventure Center, pools, tennis and pickleball courts, equestrian center, restaurants, and private beach access with boat launch at Donner Lake. Historic Downtown Truckee is just minutes away. Come discover the Sierra lifestyle! Disclosures and inspections available.

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.

Home Insurance Estimate
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.
