This
6 bedroom, 3 bath Mountain home, sits on a beautiful meadow surrounded by pine
trees. The back door exists out to the hiking trails that could start a great
day of exploring. Just 2 miles from the Lake, 4 miles to Northstar, and within
20 minutes to Alpine Meadows, and Squaw Valley. Golf? yes. 2 miles to the
Brockway Golf Course, and minutes to 5 other courses. If skiing is a pastime,
shops, restaurants, snow mobiling, kayak and bike rentals, and nightlife at the
casinos are within 3 miles to the house. The casinos on the North Shore are
known for their music venues and spa services. This house has the space for a
large family gathering, or group of friends. As you walk in the front door, you
are greeted with a massive river rock fireplace, high A frame ceilings, pool
table, windows looking out to the meadow, and open floor plan. Knotty pine
panelling and stain glass accents surrounds the "Great Room."
A
large sectional and scattered ottomans faces the fireplace and entertainment
center with LCD TV, stereo, and DVD player. A slider opens out to the top
wrap-around deck with patio furniture and barbeque. Its great to sit out here
and breath in the trees. There is a front deck, wrap around back deck, and
forest deck hosting the hot tub. Nicknamed the "TreeHaus," your view is of the
towering pine trees and seasonal creek. The house sits on a meadow with endless
hiking trails, on a gentle slope for sledding in the wintertime. A path from the
house leads to North National Park which has ball fields, a frisbee golf course,
picnic areas, and hiking and biking trails.
Just up from the lake, you can stop there en
route. The open living area has a full size pool table and an 8 top dining room
table, both facing the fireplace and kitchen. A well appointed kitchen with
wrap-around counters, Jenn Aire stove and breakfast bar that seats 5, allows for
all to watch the chef cook. Down the hall are stairs leading to a combination
bedroom and entertainment room. This is a great spot for the kids, or large
bedroom for a couple. There is a queen bed, bathroom, TV, stereo, and dart
board. A door exits out to the bottom deck with hot tub, and access to hiking
trails. The hot tub is on its own deck and looks outs onto the meadow and creek.
This is the place to relax and enjoy the wildlife, and sounds of a forest. On
the main level, is a large master bedroom with king bed, twin bed, walk in
closet, and TV/DVD. Designer bed coverings and extra space offers a good nights
sleep. A slider exists out to a semi private deck overlooking the meadow. The
bedroom is also connected to a full bathroom with double sinks. You have access
to the bathroom from the hallway or Master Bedroom. Up the stairs are 4 more
bedrooms, and another full bathroom. To the left of the hallway is an enclosed
private loft queen bedroom that has a skylight for star gazing, and single
childs bed. Down the hall is a spacious King bedroom with extra twin. There is
extra floor space here for the little ones. Next to that room is a bunk room
with full size bottom and single top that adjoins to another large enclosed
private loft bedroom with queen bed, and 2 twins. All the beds have upgraded
mattresses and most have designer bedding. Want to bring your boat and need
parking? No problem. There is a garage for your "stuff" and lots of parking in
the summertime. Located on a cul de sac, you'll see more people walking their
dogs, than cars passing by. Quiet, peaceful, comfortable, and special is the
tone of this home. The decor is mountain lodge, which compliments the Tahoe
feeling, and amenities and location should amplify your vacation stay.
