Nestled on a tree-lined lot next to open space, this 2,300 square-foot 4BR/3BA home boasts two primary suites and a gorgeous Great Room overlooking the back deck. Step out to the deck to relax in the lounge area, or make use of the gas grill and host a cookout. Light the gas firepit to enjoy s'mores and conversation beneath tall trees and starlit skies. Downtown Truckee is only one mile from your door, and miles of hiking and biking trails are out the back door. Drive and explore Northstar and Squaw Valley. Sparkling Donner Lake is moments away for summertime fun.

Exposed beams and soaring vaulted ceilings in the Great Room give the space a warm ski lodge vibe. Settle into comfortable furnishings and enjoy the warm ambience of the gas fireplace. Find an array of board games, books, and DVDs in the entertainment center, along with 50in TV with a soundbar. The chef in your party will feel right at home in the roomy kitchen. Pour a glass of wine and perch at the kitchen bar while dinner simmers. Enjoy meals in the elegant dining space. Complimentary WiFi, air-conditioning, and a washer/dryer are provided.

Two primary suites feature king beds and smart TVs. The first has an en-suite bathroom with a big walk-in shower, and the second has direct access to the deck and an en-suite bathroom with a stone vanity and a walk-in shower. The guest room has a cozy queen sleigh bed, while the fourth bedroom has two twin beds.
