Description

Tahoe, Just As You Imagined It Hidden among towering cedars on a beautifully wooded 15,000-square-foot parcel in one of Tahoe Pines' most desirable locations, this classic log home offers something increasingly rare—a lifestyle where the lake becomes part of the natural rhythm of each day. Tahoe Pines is treasured for its quiet sandy beach, optional HOA deep-water pier, Blackwood Canyon trail system, nearby West Shore bike path, low-elevation setting, and close proximity to Homewood Mountain Resort. It remains one of the few neighborhoods where the best of Tahoe's forest and shoreline are both woven into everyday life. Just six level blocks from the shoreline, access to the water is refreshingly easy. You'll often find yourself reaching for a beach towel rather than your car keys. Whether spending a quiet afternoon at the beach, launching a paddleboard, or simply enjoying the changing light along the shoreline, the lake becomes an effortless extension of home. It is this remarkable combination of forest tranquility and easy lake access that has made Tahoe Pines one of Lake Tahoe's most beloved West Shore neighborhoods. Practicality is equally impressive. The low-elevation location, level approach, circular driveway, and generous off-street parking make arrival easy year-round. A rare four-car garage—including a tandem third bay—provides exceptional flexibility for vehicles, boats, mountain gear, or workshop space. The Presidential composition roof, installed with six inches of insulation beneath it, contributes to year-round comfort and energy efficiency. Originally built in 1961 from a quality log-home kit and thoughtfully updated throughout the 1990s and early 2000s, the home has retained the warmth and authenticity that make classic Tahoe architecture so enduring while incorporating the comforts appreciated today. Vaulted ceilings, exposed timber framing, warm log walls, clear Douglas fir hardwood floors, and a dramatic stone fireplace create an inviting great room where family and friends naturally gather. Numerous picture windows, complemented by operable casement windows, frame the surrounding forest while welcoming refreshing mountain breezes throughout the home. Every room feels connected to the beautiful natural setting. The beautifully updated kitchen blends seamlessly with the home's character, featuring stone countertops, quality wood cabinetry, a brand-new cooktop, and integrated paneled refrigeration with matching wood fronts. Throughout the home, thoughtfully selected Ralph Lauren furnishings, textiles, and décor create a timeless mountain aesthetic. Offered beautifully furnished, including much of what appears in the photography, the home is ready to be enjoyed from the very first day. Offering approximately 1,304 square feet with three bedrooms and two baths, the home lives comfortably while encouraging an indoor-outdoor lifestyle centered around the spacious deck and surrounding forest. If you've been hoping to find an authentic Tahoe retreat where timeless character, everyday comfort, and the best of West Shore living come together, this may be the one.
