Property Description
First time ever offered, this architect-designed, single-story foothill retreat was built as the architect's own forever home. Tucked at the end of a quiet road on 2 private, walkable acres, it offers rare usable land, privacy, and timeless character. A wrought-iron gate opens to a meadow framed by redwoods, with an established orchard of walnut, apple, fig, persimmon, kiwi, and blueberry, along with mature roses and room for animals. This is land you can truly live on. The main residence features approx. 1,628 sqft with vaulted ceilings, open beams, cherry hardwood floors, and a sun-filled solarium (~152 sqft). French doors open to the meadow, and the primary suite includes a private outdoor sanctuary with plumbing and electrical in place for a future hot tub under Sierra Nevada skies. A fully permitted detached studio (~544 sqft) with separate entrance, half bath, mini-split, and wood stove provides flexible space for guests, workspace, or creative use. Infrastructure is exceptional: 60 GPM well, Race fiber internet available(up to 1,000 Mbps), Generac backup generator, hospital power grid, multiple mini-split systems, Vermont Castings wood stoves, and passive solar design. Located just minutes to shopping, dining, hospital, and local amenities, with easy access to Tahoe and the Bay Area. A rare combination of privacy, usable acreage, and thoughtful design offered publicly for the first time.
