If you've dreamed of owning a private mountain retreat, this extraordinary 80-acre compound offers endless opportunities for adventure, relaxation, and connection to nature, less than 20 minutes from historic downtown Truckee. The property includes two separate homes with approximately 3,760 square feet of combined living space, offering flexibility for extended family, guests, caretakers, or rental opportunities. The original log cabin built in 1989 features soaring log ceilings, exposed log walls, cork floors, expansive windows, three bedrooms, a spacious game room, a large sauna and a 3 car garage. A few hundred feet away is a smaller cabin which was built in 2012. This single-level home has two bedrooms and two bathrooms. When this home was built, the designer took great care making sure to take full advantage of the views from the main rooms - from the kitchen, living room, bedroom and even while sitting for a soak in the bathtub. Every window frames only nature, with no visible man-made structures to interrupt the landscape. In front of this cabin there’s a flat knoll with a fire pit built on it that will draw you out of the house to sit for hours around the campfire with friends listening to Juniper Creek and just enjoying the view. Juniper Creek runs right through the property so you can spend the day hiking or in winter, backcountry skiing down to the creek and up the other side without leaving your own land. Hop on your bike to connect directly onto endless miles of trails. Or make a day of it and hike into the Mt Rose Wilderness area right from your door. For the history buffs, there’s a partially standing historic Basque sheepherder's corral that reflects the area's rich history. The part of the property where the houses are has gently sloping terrain allowing enough room to develop even more land to perhaps build a horse facility or large barn. Across the Juniper Creek there’s a steeper section of land where you could build your own trails or ski slope in the winter. This property is located in a private gated community just 20 minutes from downtown Truckee. First time on the market in 25 years. The property combines exceptional privacy with convenient access to world-class skiing, mountain biking, dining, shopping, and the Truckee-Tahoe lifestyle. Come experience your own private slice of Tahoe paradise.
