Gorgeous Mountain and Meadow Views - Steps from Upper Truckee River and Forest Trails, Minutes from Lake Tahoe
At this beautiful, fully-updated mountain home in South Lake Tahoe, you’ll feel hours away from the hustle-and-bustle, but a mere minutes away from beautiful Lake Tahoe, with its restaurants, casinos and concert venues, and comedy clubs and shows. And only five miles to Heavenly Ski Resort.
The three-bedroom, two-bath property overlooks Tahoe’s beautiful meadow and mountains, steps away from the Upper Truckee River. With riverside trails that snake through magnificent forested land, they’re perfect for hiking, biking, and cross country skiing, right from the back door! Or adventure further afield and explore all the hiking and biking that the Tahoe region has to offer (guide books available).
A large outdoor patio provides the perfect viewpoint for awe-inspiring sunsets, as well as bird and other wildlife watching, with picnic tables, BBQ, and lounge chairs for outdoor dining and relaxing. The treehouse, fenced-in backyard, and fire pit for s’mores are perfect for young children, or the young at heart.
The large living area’s floor-to-ceiling windows and vaulted ceilings create a breathtaking meadow and mountain backdrop, bringing the amazing outdoors right into the living room. Get cozy in the winter with a fire in the wood-burning stove, while the snow gently falls on the moonlit mountains.
A modern, fully-updated kitchen – with granite countertops and large island – is perfect for entertaining, whether you’re preparing a gourmet meal or a good old-fashioned cookout.
Three bedrooms, two of which boast even more meadow and mountain views, provide relaxing sleeping areas; wood and antique furniture throughout the home accent the natural ambiance. Two full bathrooms, both have showers and bathtubs, one is the Master Bath. Sleeps 5-8.

Why the Owner Chose Sierra Tract
When we first looked at the house, we were immediately sold on the amazing views and the ability to walk out the back door and stroll along the Truckee River. We haven't regretted our decision for a moment! We love the fact that our house is in a neighborhood (and we have great neighbors) yet once you pull into the driveway, you can't see another house around you - it's all about the mountains, meadow, and the river! We couldn't ask for a anything more.
The Unique Benefits at this House
So many things we love. Summer BBQs on the patio. Winter campfires for smores. Exploring Fallen Leaf Lake. Spending time at the beach. Sitting on the couch and feeling the warmth of the afternoon sunshine. Taking naps. Hiking in Desolation Wilderness. A night out at the casinos. A day on the slopes (for my husband) or a day on cross country skis (for me) right out the back door in the Tahoe Conservation Area. And we love the little bagel shop right down the street that has the best breakfast bagels EVER and it's only a short walk away...
Owner's Map of Sierra Tract
We love the out of doors and make the trip to Tahoe from the SF Bay area as often as we can. We believe strongly in getting away from it all and focusing on what is most important - family, friends, fun, and relaxation. Our Tahoe home is a wonderful way to do this. Whether we're kayaking on the lake, hiking in the Sierras, hanging out at home, or skiiing at Heavenly - we consider ourselves lucky. We also have 2 little boys (1 and 3) and it is important to us to have quality family time and that they grow up able to appreciate the natural world around them. We love spending time in Tahoe at our home away from home - and when we can't be there, we like others to have the chance to be in a home environment to relax, enjoy the scenery, have fun, and make wonderful memories.
