Welcome to your own slice of South Lake Tahoe. Tucked away in the desirable St. Francis complex, this rare end-unit condo offers both privacy and an exceptional connection to the surrounding natural beauty. Lovingly cared for as a primary residence, this unit has never been used as a vacation rental, although short term rentals are allowed by the HOA.Just steps from the forest, you'll enjoy immediate access to miles of scenic hiking and biking trails, with Pope Beach and Fallen Leaf Lake just a short stroll or quick drive away. Head down Emerald Bay Road to explore some of Tahoe's most iconic destinations, including pristine beaches, renowned trailheads, historic landmarks, and the amenities of Camp Richardson.Inside, the thoughtfully remodeled kitchen and bathroom bring a fresh, modern feel, while the unique custom living room window exclusive to this end unit fills the space with abundant natural light throughout the day, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. Newer laminate flooring was installed and the older popcorn ceiling was removed.Residents enjoy access to the complex's seasonal pool and hot tub, as well as two courtyard BBQ areas perfect for relaxing and entertaining during the warmer months. A convenient carport located directly below the unit provides protection from snow and the elements year-round.Whether you're looking for a peaceful Tahoe retreat or a turnkey getaway close to it all, this special property offers comfort, convenience, and a rare opportunity in a coveted location.
