Property Description

Welcome to 521 Sweetwater, a classic mountain retreat perched above Meeks Bay with panoramic views that stretch across the crystalline waters of Lake Tahoe and the rugged Desolation Wilderness beyond. Nestled in a quiet West Shore neighborhood, this inviting home offers the perfect balance of seclusion and accessibility: midway between Tahoe City and South Lake Tahoe, and just minutes from scenic beaches, pristine wilderness, and Homewood Mountain Resort ski area. The home features three comfortable bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and a versatile flex space that can serve as a bonus room, office, or fourth sleeping area - ideal for hosting guests or working remotely with a view. The heart of the home is an open-concept great room and kitchen, designed for connection, warmth, and laid-back gatherings. A large deck just off the main living area invites you to take in the expansive views with your morning coffee or aprés-ski beverage. Interior comforts include a practical mudroom for snowy gear, and the detached two-car garage provides ample storage for outdoor toys and Tahoe essentials. Whether you're watching the snowfall over the peaks or soaking up summer sun with lake views in the background, this home delivers year-round appeal. Whether as a full-time residence or vacation escape, this is a space designed to recharge, reconnect, and soak in all the natural beauty the West Shore is known for.
