About this property

Truckee House · Gorgeous Mountain Oasis, Hot Tub & Chef's Kitchen

Perched among the pine trees of Tahoe Donner, this mountain modern gem is your perfect getaway. Though nestled in nature, this open concept home lacks no comforts or convenience, including private hot tub, chef's kitchen featuring luxury appliances, mid-century furnishings, radiant floor heating, and high-end finishes throughout. Enjoy access to all the amenities at Tahoe Donner, incl heated pool, gym, biking and skiing. This 2,700 sq. ft., 4-bedroom home comfortably sleeps 10 (max 8 adults).

Welcome to High Sierra! This north Lake Tahoe house has it all. As one recent guest said, "It is even more stunning in person."

• Fully stocked gourmet kitchen with high-end appliances
• Private hot tub, 2 decks, 4 bedrooms, 2 1/2 bathrooms, and wood-burning fireplace (oak wood is provided)
• Heated hickory wood floors, with separate controls in each bedroom
• Professionally cleaned home and commercially laundered linens and towels
• Beautiful expansive views of the surrounding meadow and pine trees
• For remote workers, a desk and high-speed wifi in every bedroom using a mesh network for consistent connection throughout the house

Nestled within the Tahoe Donner resort community in north Lake Tahoe, the stylish four-bedroom, 2,700 square foot home features an open concept Great Room, spacious design, vaulted ceiling, and large redwood deck with private 3-person hot tub and string lights.

*** Cleaning Protocols:
Our house is professionally cleaned from top to bottom between each guest. We professionally launder and press all linens and towels. Our cleaners wear masks and gloves during cleaning. They clean and disinfect all surfaces that guests come in contact with such as door handles, light switches, amenities, refrigerator and stove handles, remote controls, etc. This is done every single time between each guest.

Perfect for entertaining family and friends, the house has a deluxe chef's kitchen, complete with integrated Sub-Zero refrigerator, 6-burner Wolf professional range, Miele dishwasher, Wolf wall oven and steamer, solid oak cabinets, and counter-seating for 4. All bedrooms and living spaces have heated floors to keep your toes toasty in Winter, with separate zoned thermostats.

The house backs into a meadow of pine trees and loads of open space, sledding and snow play in the Winter, with large windows throughout, offering stunning views into a sliver of the great Tahoe National Forest. Savor the outdoors on the spacious redwood deck, private hot tub, ping pong table, foosball table, and gas BBQ grill. The resorts of Northstar, Squaw, and Sugar Bowl are minutes away.

Location: The house sits on a quiet street in Tahoe Donner, and backs into an open meadow of pine trees. It's conveniently located next to Tahoe Donner's many amenities. Nearby downtown Truckee is home to countless restaurants, bars and small-town charm.

Relax apres ski in the expansive Great Room with sunny, south-facing views. Stay warm in the Caldera hot tub on the redwood deck. Dine at the extra long French Oak dining table, with seating for 10. After dinner, savor a drink by the Quadra-Fire EPA Certified wood burning fireplace, a game of foosball, table tennis, or board games aplenty. Enjoy the large flat-screen smart TV in the great room or in the kid-friendly family room upstairs. With blazing fast WiFi powered by a mesh network, stream your favorite music throughout the house and on in-ceiling speakers. In Winter, have the kids sled down the long, gentle slope just behind the house. There are some plastic sleds to use during your stay.

Perfect
Great home! We were there during a heavy snow storm and it was perfect. The kids were able to play and sled in the front and back yard, after we made a small sled area, but it was perfect. The inside of the home was well stocked and communication with the owner was excellent!! My biggest complaint is the low grade toilet paper. Lol

Upscale house in a quiet mountain neighborhood
We initially were drawn to this property by the Scandinavian design and upscale appliances but we've been disappointed before. We were thrilled when we arrived and found that Ehab's property far exceeded our expectations! The surfaces and materials in his house were excellent and, as a family that enjoys cooking together, we were well pleased with his choice of appliance brands. We were pleased by how well the kitchen was equipped with sharp knives down to the spice drawer to the ample leftover dishes. It was all there. The beds were comfortable and the linens were very nice. We were happy to feed back information to Ehab throughout our stay and he was very responsive to our queries. Thank you, we will be back!
