Luxurious mountain home on landscaped lot in Truckee
Set atop a private, landscaped half-acre, 11669 St. Bernard St. in Truckee embodies contemporary mountain living. With a pair of decks spread across multiple levels, the five-bedroom offers ample opportunity for indoor/outdoor living.
That makes it the perfect place to enjoy full-time living, or as a second home — an escape in Truckee and Tahoe.
Gorgeous views await in the woodland setting, with large windows framing views of forest trees and mountains. The home rests near hiking trails, making it ideal for a buyer who enjoys the outdoors.
The multilevel abode comes with a pair of primary suites, as well as a bonus room that could serve as a game room, bunk room or home theater.
A vaulted ceiling shelter’s the great room’s open floor plan, while a laundry room on the ground floor and an additional washer/dryer hook-up on the middle floor lend practicality to the design.
The four-and-a-half-bathroom home resides near the Northwoods Club House, which boasts a pool, restaurant, bocce ball courts and playground.
“It’s the perfect location for enjoying all that the Tahoe Donner community has to offer,” said Kari Chalstrom of Compass, who is listing the modern mountain home for $2.649 million.
The kitchen features custom cabinetry and integrated, stainless steel appliances, while the
adjoining great room steps out to a view deck through a sliding glass door.
An angled fireplace warms a living room in the lower level of a home with more than 4,300 square feet of living space.
The sellers say their favorite aspects of the home are the beauty and silence surrounding the property.
“They’ve enjoyed hosting family and friends to share the Tahoe/Donner lifestyle in all seasons,” Chalstrom said.
