Adventure meets luxury at this exceptional 3-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom townhouse, nestled within the prestigious gated community of Schaffer’s Mill in Truckee, CA. Surrounded by the majestic Martis Valley, and just minutes from world-class skiing, championship golf, and the shimmering shores of Lake Tahoe, this mountain-lodge retreat is your year-round basecamp for unforgettable experiences.
Step out your front door and into the mountain lifestyle. Tee off on the Schaffer’s Mill championship golf course, ride along the scenic Truckee River bike path, or explore the best of Lake Tahoe—just a 15-minute drive to sun-soaked beaches and crystal-clear waters. When winter arrives, the slopes of Northstar California Resort are practically on your doorstep—just minutes away for skiing, snowboarding, and après-ski delights.
Inside, this sophisticated yet cozy townhome is curated for comfort and style. Relax in an expansive living area with vaulted ceilings, rich hardwood floors, and a dramatic stone fireplace—the ideal place to gather with loved ones after a day in the elements. The 55-inch smart TV and oversized sectional make movie nights a must.
The gourmet kitchen is a chef’s dream, outfitted with pine cabinetry, premium stainless steel appliances, and a huge breakfast island built for both meal prep and morning coffee chats. Enjoy group dinners at the rustic-chic dining table, which comfortably seats eight.
Retreat to the luxurious primary suite, featuring a plush king bed, 55” TV, spacious walk-in closet, and spa-like en-suite with a double vanity, sleek walk-in shower, and serene soaking tub. A second upstairs suite also boasts a king bed, 55” TV, and private bath with a garden tub and walk-in shower.
The third bedroom is perfect for kids or groups alike, with two twin-over-twin bunk beds, another 55” TV, and its own en-suite bath with a modern walk-in shower. A half bath on the ground floor adds extra convenience.
