Experience the ease of modern mountain living in this beautifully updated 5-bedroom Truckee home, ideally located just minutes from historic downtown Truckee, local restaurants, coffee shops, boutiques, and highly regarded schools. Set on a sunny southeast-facing homesite with a short, winter-friendly driveway, this property was designed to make full-time living or weekend escapes effortless in every season. Inside, the heart of the home is the expansive chef's kitchen, thoughtfully designed for entertaining and everyday functionality. Features include custom glazed cabinetry, rich acacia wood butcher block countertops, durable bamboo flooring, a large center island, beverage and wine refrigerator, and a commercial-grade ZLINE dual oven with six-burner range and griddle, an ideal setup for home chefs and gathering with friends and family after a day on the slopes or trails. Thoughtfully styled with a modern mountain aesthetic inspired by Design Bar, the home offers two spacious living rooms, and plenty of storage in the mudroom transition area between the garage and interior living space makes it easy to organize all of your Tahoe gear, while additional RV and boat parking create flexibility rarely found this close to downtown Truckee. The current owners especially love the sunny deck, welcoming neighborhood, spacious layout, and how "winter-proof" the property feels. The southeast exposure allows the short driveway to receive exceptional sunlight, helping snow melt faster during winter months. A high-end 40-amp backup-ready generator adds additional peace of mind during mountain weather. Whether you are looking for a primary residence, luxury mountain retreat, or a turnkey Truckee lifestyle home with negotiable furnishings, this property offers the rare combination of location, functionality, storage, sunshine, and elevated mountain design, all within moments of everything that makes Truckee one of Lake Tahoe's most sought-after communities.
