About This Property
Welcome to True Sanctuary, a newly completed contemporary luxury home in Tahoe Donner where modern architecture, exceptional craftsmanship and natural materials come together in a remarkable mountain setting. Designed with the discerning eye of an owner who is a principal at a leading Bay Area architecture firm, this 5-bedroom, 4.5-bath residence offers sophisticated design with the warmth and comfort of a true Tahoe retreat. A granite boulder-lined driveway leads to a dramatic entry framed by steel railings, Western red cedar ceilings and generous overhanging eaves. Inside, tongue-and-groove cedar ceilings extend over the expansive kitchen and great room, where a gas fireplace and contemporary circular lighting create a striking gathering space. The main living level includes a luxurious primary suite as well as a spacious ensuite guest room. The chef's kitchen features alder cabinetry, Thermador appliances and double sinks designed for effortless entertainment and meal preparation. Mediterranean French wide-plank aged white oak flooring, Sierra Pacific wood-clad windows and carefully curated finishes bring warmth and authenticity throughout the home. Multi-zone hydronic in-floor radiant heat provides year-round comfort, complemented by a whole-house fan and air conditioning for warmer summer days. Wrapped in distinctive burnt carbon siding, the home backs to open space and features a south-facing covered patio for four-season outdoor enjoyment. Professionally furnished with sophisticated, thoughtful selections, the residence is available for immediate enjoyment. Located in Tahoe Donner in Truckee, California, the property provides access to an extraordinary collection of mountain amenities, including championship golf, tennis, pickleball, alpine and Nordic skiing, equestrian facilities, mountain biking, fitness and recreation facilities, and private amenities at Donner Lake. More than a mountain home, True Sanctuary is an opportunity to experience contemporary luxury, architectural distinction and the four-season Tahoe Donner lifestyle for generations to come.

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.
STR Investment Analysis
STR analysisHome 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.
