Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2000
My husband and I are from the Bay Area and love the "getaway" feeling we have sitting on our deck overlooking the forest, taking in the view of the golf course, Martis Valley and Castle Peak from the great room, hiking with the dogs on the trails or skiing with the kids in fresh powder. Although just a short drive from the City, our Northstar home makes you feel a million miles away as the stress of everyday life melts away. As an owner for over 15 years, we have watched Northstar retain its' sense of family, even as it has evolved into a world-class resort.
Why the Owner Chose Truckee
Our three bedroom, three and a half bath home at the beautiful Northstar Resort is close to historic and charming Truckee, where we enjoy the great restaurants and lovely shops. We (and you will) have access to a private swim and tennis club within the resort. There are six eighteen hole golf courses within five miles including the Northstar course just across the street. This summer, the resort will also offer mountain biking, scenic lift rides for sightseeing, an APEX bungee and ropes challenge, and hiking, fly-fishing and more.
The Unique Benefits of this Private Home
Door-to-door shuttle service takes you to the Village at Northstar, which is now flourishing with life. Featuring a variety of shopping options from stylish boutiques, art galleries and specialty retailers to a collection of cafés and restaurants all centered on a year-round skating rink. Go over to the Village for live music, special events, and a collection of fire pits, ideal for roasting s’mores. The area offers great hiking, sailplane soaring and, of course, one of the true gems of the world, Lake Tahoe, just fifteen minutes away.
