Property Description
Mountain Retreat with Modern Cabin Charm - Steps from the Upper Truckee RiverLimitless outdoor recreation lies just beyond your doorstep in this sun-filled mountain retreat that blends modern cabin warmth with an airy, open design, making it truly special. The lot offers views of Echo Summit and Flagpole Peak, and with two U.S. Forest Service lots on both sides and another kitty-corner across the street, the setting feels both private and magical.The main level offers two bedrooms and a full bathroom. Upstairs, a recent remodel reimagined the loft area into two distinct yet open-feeling spaces, each with its own closet. These lofts function beautifully as additional bedrooms or flex spaces for work or relaxation. One of the lofts is adjacent to a bathroom and has a layout that feels like a quaint master suiteoffering a sense of separation and privacy while maintaining the loft's open character.Step inside to discover soaring open-beam ceilings and a seamless flow between the kitchen, dining, and living areas. A compliant wood-burning stove set on a stone hearth anchors the space, offering a cozy winter retreat. The kitchen has been tastefully updated with newer shaker-style cabinets, a five-burner LG stove, a Whirlpool dishwasher, a stainless steel single-basin sink, and engineered hickory wood flooring. A stacked washer and dryer are conveniently located in the kitchen for easy access.Outside, enjoy a refreshed exterior with new paint, a welcoming entry, and low-maintenance Trex-style deckingperfect for relaxing in the sun or shade. The natural landscape features blooming daffodils, raised flower and garden beds, and a peaceful grove of aspens, enhancing the serene mountain atmosphere. A large, insulated shed at the rear of the property offers abundant storage and the potential for a home office or creative studio.Located just steps from the Upper Truckee River and close to downtown Meyers, this home sits at the heart of an outdoor paradise with access to hiking, biking, waterfalls, bouldering, climbing, and three world-class ski resorts.
