Located in Truckee’s prestigious Schaffer’s Mill community, this home exemplifies New Mountain architecture with its open floor plan, walls of glass and steel that blend inside with outside, granite and stainless steel throughout, and all of the amenities necessary to truly unwind. This exceptional residence was custom designed from the ground up by award-winning architect Ward-Young in 2013 and f
eatured on HGTV’s Dream Home Lake Tahoe 2014 to be impressive on TV and ultra-comfortable for its residents. The great room features top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances, a 16’ long granite cooking and dining bar, 15’ ceilings with glass from floor to ceiling, a gas fireplace to unwind next to, and a slate-covered entryway that blends seamlessly into the outdoor patio and the Martis Valley beyond. The home also comes with a combo family room / media room spacious enough for everyone to gather around and watch a favorite movie or sporting event on the immersive 75” TV. Residents of this home have access to all of the amenities that the Schaffer’s Mill golf and lake community has to offer including its 18-hole golf course, clubhouse with pool, spa, and workout facility, tennis courts, basketball courts, and Schaffer’s Mill’s 48’ yacht. Amenities are subject to availability and additional fees, please inquire. For all its designer beauty, the Dream Home also provides a welcoming, family-friendly getaway that lets you sprawl out and get comfy. The home’s three bedrooms include a spacious master suite, a personality-packed guest suite, and a kids’ bunkroom (4 single beds) with Alpine style and pine forest views. Each of these bedrooms has direct access to a full bath—a welcome perk for a group vacation. The family room also has a pullout full sofa bed to accommodate two additional guests. Take a deep breath and sink into the master bath’s soaker tub…or step into one of three glass-enclosed walk-in showers. In the living area, grand windows frame sun-draped pines and views that delight across four seasons. In winter, snow typically blankets the ground—perfect with a fire flickering in one of the two indoor gas fireplaces. After a day on the slopes at nearby Northstar, curl up on the Ethan Allen furniture under a soft blanket. In summertime, the forest is velvet green and the outdoors beckon; have a BBQ and make use of the outdoor gas grill and covered, six-person dining table, roast s’mores in the outdoor gas fireplace, or breathe in the mountain air from the spacious outdoor patio or one of the three decks overlooking the golf course. The Dream Home is less than two miles away from the Truckee airport and less than 200 miles from San Francisco.
