Designed by renowned architect Joel Sherman and brought to life by Ruppert Construction, this stunning mountain retreat is a true masterpiece of craftsmanship and design. As you approach the entrance to the home, you’re welcomed by a dramatic floor-to-ceiling water feature that sets the tone for tranquility and elegance. Step inside and you’ll find an open-concept floor plan that flows seamlessly into a grand living area with soaring vaulted ceilings and warm, natural light. While photos offer a glimpse, it’s difficult to truly capture the unique architecture and thoughtful design details that define this home. One of its most striking features is the custom metalwork that flows continuously from the interior to the exterior—creating a sense of connection and cohesiveness that’s rarely seen. At the heart of the home lies a striking modern kitchen featuring dual islands—each with its own sink—integrated high-end appliances, continuous grain cabinetry, and a hidden refrigerator that maintains a clean, uninterrupted design. Every detail has been carefully considered for both beauty and functionality. Throughout the home, radiant heating provides efficient, consistent warmth underfoot—perfect for year-round comfort in the mountain climate. Expansive windows frame views of the surrounding forest, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. One of the home’s most remarkable features is that every room has direct access to private patio spaces, allowing nature to be just steps away from every corner of the home. The layout is ideal for both entertaining and day-to-day comfort, with two luxurious primary suites located on the first floor. One suite includes a built-in office, a generous walk-in closet, and a spa-like bath with a soaking tub. Upstairs, you’ll find two additional bedrooms, along with skylit bathrooms and two expansive decks that offer peaceful moments for morning coffee or evening stargazing. A hidden bar tucked beneath the dramatic basalt staircase adds a chic and clever space for entertaining. Architectural elements such as bold cantilevers, exposed steel beams, sophisticated built-in cabinetry, and modern yet inviting living areas elevate the overall design. Step outside to a truly exceptional outdoor living experience. Set on a full acre, surrounded by mature trees, with no road noise, and backing to forest views. The fully landscaped yard is an entertainer’s dream, complete with three fire pits, an outdoor kitchen, lush green space to relax or play, and a beautifully integrated in-ground hot tub—perfect for soaking under the stars. Located directly across from Lahontan’s scenic par-3 short course, the home enjoys easy access to one of the club’s most walkable and enjoyable golfing experiences. The oversized garage is designed to blend seamlessly into the home’s architecture and features space for two vehicles, a separate golf cart bay, built-in storage, and even a secure underground safe—ideal for Tahoe gear and valuables. Located within the prestigious Lahontan Golf Club, this home offers access to a private, gated community known for its world-class amenities and relaxed mountain luxury. Residents enjoy a championship Tom Weiskopf-designed golf course, a 9-hole par-3 course, clubhouse dining, spa and fitness center, swimming, tennis, and year-round events for all ages. Set among the forests and meadows of Truckee’s Martis Valley—and just minutes from Northstar, Lake Tahoe, and downtown Truckee—this home blends elevated living with mountain adventure.
