About This Home

3880 Forest Road

Are you planning to spend more time at Tahoe? This home is perfect for large groups and family escapes, and now is the season to buy at Tahoe’s North Shore. Just in time for fall and winter fun, our Forest Getaway—a fully remodeled modern mountain compound at 3880 Forest Road in Carnelian Bay—is ready for you and your guests to enjoy. This one-of-a-kind property features two main structures that blend refined Tahoe style with exceptional flexibility. The beautifully remodeled main residence offers 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, while a large en-suite apartment sits privately beneath it. This lower apartment includes its own entrance off a covered deck, a sitting room, a spacious main room, an oversized closet, and a full bathroom—ideal for guests, extended family, or a separate lounge/game room space. The main home showcases fresh, modern finishes throughout: • **All-new gourmet kitchen and great room • **2 easy-access entry-level bedrooms • **New hot water, heating, and air conditioning systems • **New lighting, paint, and exterior upgrades • **New composite decking for seamless indoor/outdoor living Across the covered breezeway, the detached two-car garage "complex" adds even more versatility. The level driveway parks 2 vehicles and allows level access into the insulated and heated 2-car garage. Above the garage is a bright, spacious in-law bedroom with a full bath and wet bar setup. In addition, below the garage is a professionally finished heated bonus flex room -- perfect for a fitness studio, private office, yoga space, or art studio. Both the main home and garage complex feature updated electrical and new heating/air conditioning—an uncommon level of comfort and peace of mind in Tahoe. In total, the property includes 6 bedrooms and 5 full bathrooms across approximately 3,900 square feet (estimated per the owner’s measurements; buyer to verify), offering remarkable value at $511 per square foot. The home is centrally located between Tahoe City and Kings Beach, providing great access from both main highways into the north shore of Tahoe. Positioned within 3/10ths of a mile from the lake, you are so close you can hear boats motor by. Just think of waking up in the morning only a few minutes from the sparkling waters of Lake Tahoe. Not only is this property part of the North Tahoe PUD recreation amenities package, which includes pickleball, tennis, sandy beaches, and boat launching, it also offers effortless access to other year-round recreation, premium golf courses, miles of hiking and biking trails, and world-class downhill and cross-country ski resorts. In winter, Northstar at Tahoe and Palisades Tahoe ski areas sponsor shuttles, accessible nearby with park-and-ride services. Shopping and great restaurants are located throughout the North Shore. Convenient and fun for everyone!
