Property Description

Experience the grandeur of this extraordinary Tudor-style Tahoe estate, where Old World character meets modern luxury against one of Lake Tahoe's most spectacular backdrops. Perched on a premier cul-de-sac in desirable Zephyr Heights, the residence commands sweeping, unobstructed southwest-facing views stretching from the slopes of Heavenly to the distant North Shore. Recently revitalized with extensive improvements, including a new roof, this distinctive residence encompasses nearly 5,800 square feet of refined mountain living. A dramatic castle-inspired entry introduces an interior rich in character, with custom stonework, exposed-beam ceilings, warm wood finishes, and expansive walls of glass framing Lake Tahoe like a living work of art. The upper-level primary suite is a private sanctuary unto itself, featuring two fireplaces, central air conditioning, a private office, oversized walk-in closet, and an impressive spa-inspired bath. A soaking tub occupies a turreted alcove overlooking the lake, complemented by a glass-enclosed shower with panoramic views. Step onto the private deck for a front-row seat to Tahoe's legendary sunsets. An adjacent loft-style sixth suite with its own bath provides additional flexibility for guests, an office, or private retreat. At the heart of the home, the updated chef's kitchen features quartz countertops, dual center islands, stainless steel appliances, and beautifully crafted cabinetry. An octagonal formal dining room creates a memorable setting for entertaining, while the lakeview living room is anchored by a dramatic stone fireplace and complemented by a built-in wet bar and distinctive sunken conversation area. Expansive glass doors extend the living space onto a generous lakeview deck. The lower level is designed for recreation and extended stays, offering a second full kitchen, spacious family and game areas, art studio, dry sauna, 300-bottle wine cellar, and direct access to the spa patio. Multiple additional bedroom suites create exceptional flexibility for family, guests, or multigenerational living. Outside, newly installed pavers, tiered stone patios, and professional landscaping complement the home's storybook architecture. Relax in the hot tub while taking in a remarkable panorama of Lake Tahoe and the surrounding Sierra. Additional features include forced-air heating, multiple split-system air-conditioning zones, a two-car garage with additional driveway parking, a private stone stairway providing access to the lower level, and a separate off-street parking area accommodating two additional vehicles—a particularly valuable amenity in Tahoe's hillside communities. Despite its private setting, the property is just minutes from Stateline, Heavenly, Edgewood Tahoe, and the renowned beaches and recreation of Lake Tahoe's Nevada East Shore. Whether envisioned as a full-time residence, an exceptional Tahoe retreat, or a legacy estate for generations to come, this is a rare opportunity to own a truly distinctive home with an unforgettable view. Owner financing may be available to qualified buyers. The seller also owns the adjacent buildable lot, which is currently offered separately—presenting a unique opportunity for additional privacy, expansion, or a complementary future residence. Property photographs may include digital enhancements and/or virtual staging. Actual property condition may vary.
