About this property
Historic Truckee River House
This is a one of a kind property. This has historical signifigance as the Women's Wyethia Garden Club in the early 1900s, with a big beautiful meeting room, a kitchen and bathroom that over the years has been remodeled and added on to. The upstairs entry level still has the large beautiful room with a gas fireplace, a surround sound stereo system and flat screen television. The dining area is located in this large room as well. The kitchen looks into the living/dining area and has full service dish ware and appliances. The back deck looks down onto the Truckee River and has access to the lower level and yard. Walking into this large room from what looks like a small front entry is truly breathtaking. There is a gas barbeque, patio table, and chairs on the deck.
Downstairs are the two bedrooms, each with their own bathroom. The master has a larger bathroom with large shower. The second bedroom has a lovely tiled bathroom and a terrific river view. Both bedrooms have private doorways to the exterior lower deck. The larger master bedroom has a flat screen television and dvd player. Full size washer and dryer are in the downstairs hallway.
I have just added a brand new king mattress and a brand new full mattress to the bedrooms, based on renters' suggestions for a more comfortable sleep. Love the Tuft and Needle mattresses! Both bedrooms now have full curtains for morning coverage....I like to wake up in the dark, but not everyone does!
Fall asleep listening to the sound of the Truckee River which is very actively flowing by. The location of this house is convenient for enjoying the charming historical aspects of downtown Truckee. A walk into town is often faster than a drive and a park! At the entrance to this one way street there is a coffee shop for a morning walk and coffee. All of the accouterments of this home are of high quality and tasteful design. All recreational activities are nearby. The home is listed with the Town of Truckee - Registration Certificate Number (RCN)1166g

About the area
Truckee
Located in Downtown Truckee, a neighbourhood in Truckee, this holiday home is in the mountains and on the waterfront. Palisades Tahoe and Northstar California Resort are worth checking out if an activity is on the agenda, while those wishing to experience the area's natural beauty can explore Donner Lake. Looking to enjoy an event or a game while in town? See what's happening at Tahoe Donner Tennis Center or North Tahoe Regional Park. Take in the nearby slopes with cross-country skiing and snowboarding, or try out other outdoor activities such as snowmobiling and sledging.

About the host
Hosted by Dinny Evans
I love this home and have recently moved in with a partner so I am making it available for folks who want to visit Truckee, a beautiful town that I moved to in 1987. This was a big winter and the Truckee River is flowing high and offers an amazing sound to fall asleep to. I have been a real estate agent in Truckee for 26 years and have recently retired turning the business over to my daughter. I am also a Radical Forgiveness and Manifestation coach and use this home for workshops and private meetings when it is not rented.
Why they chose this property
The location of this property, in the Lake Tahoe area, beautiful resort living is perfect for exploring all of the amenities available when living in paradise! Truckee has a wonderful small town energy which is easily accessed from this location. There is music, dancing, fine dining, concerts and a gallery within walking distance.
What makes this property unique
Being right in downtown Truckee has a tremendous benefit for exploring this historical community. Having access to the Truckee River is great for summer light recreating as well as beautiful snowy vistas during the winter. The elevation is just low enough to make winter snow management without a garage easy to handle. The location is close to all of the ski areas, Donner Lake for summer recreating and Lake Tahoe. Reno is only 30-45 minutes away from this downtown area for those who enjoy shows and/or casinos.
