About This Property
Tucked into the quiet, highly sought-after Cedar Flat neighborhood, this spacious mountain home offers the kind of Tahoe lifestyle people come here for. With access to the Cedar Flat Improvement Association - including a private beach, double-deck pier, and buoy field (via lottery) - your days can easily shift from morning coffee in the trees to afternoons on the lake. The home is designed for gathering, while still giving everyone their own space to unwind. The main living areas feel warm and inviting, with classic Tahoe wood accents, a beautiful stone wood-burning fireplace, and plenty of natural light. The dining area adds its own cozy touch with a brick gas fireplace, creating the perfect setting for long, relaxed dinners. Out front, a large deck sets the stage for entertaining, whether it’s summer evenings with friends or quiet mornings surrounded by the trees. The primary suite is a true retreat - spacious and private, with its own gas stove, balcony, oversized closet, and a well-appointed bath featuring a jetted tub and separate shower. Updated touches throughout, including brand new carpet, blend seamlessly with the home’s original character, giving it that timeless “Old Tahoe” feel without sacrificing comfort. A rare combination of location, charm, and functionality in one of Carnelian Bay’s most beloved neighborhoods.

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.
