Summary:
Mid-Century Tahoe Ranch House
The Space:
Step back in time—without sacrificing modern comfort—in this epic mid-century ranch home nestled in one of South Lake Tahoe’s most peaceful neighborhoods. Set on a flat, easy-access street with a meadow right across the way, this single-level home blends 1960s charm with updated amenities, spacious living areas, and immediate access to Tahoe’s best outdoor recreation.
Inside, the home’s character shines in the sunken living room, complete with a rock fireplace, pellet stove and classic décor. You can spin vinyl records or play CDs as you relax by the fire. The fully modern kitchen offers everything a cook could need, including an induction range, air-fryer oven, dishwasher, and full cookware setup.
The primary suite features a brand-new California King mattress, a private bathroom and shower, and your own far-infrared sauna—perfect after a day of exploring. Two additional bedrooms each have new queen beds and ample closet space. A foosball table is available in the bonus room, and the hall closet is stocked with games for cozy nights in.
Outside, a large back porch with a dining set and gas BBQ is ideal for summer cookouts or evening relaxation. The home’s single-level layout and flat driveway make access simple year-round, and the two-car garage provides secure storage for gear and vehicles. Ample parking for 2 car garage and 2 cars in driveway. Disc golf sets, hiking poles, and other sporting amenities are available in the garage, and guests are welcome to use the provided kayak and bikes.
Recreation is right at your doorstep: the multi-use trail is just a quarter mile down the street, and access to the Powerline Trail is a short walk up the road and across Pioneer Trail. Bijou Park is just a short stroll—about a third of a mile—down the street and across the meadow. There you’ll find a 27-hole disc golf course, a kids’ bike park, a skate park, and two dog parks (one for large dogs and one for small), along with other great amenities. Heavenly’s California Base Lodge is also conveniently located about 1.5 miles away.
The quiet neighborhood remains peaceful even during peak holiday weekends, offering a serene retreat close to everything South Lake Tahoe has to offer. Whether you’re unwinding in the sauna, grilling on the porch, enjoying a game night, or heading out for an adventure on the trails or lake, this retro-modern ranch home offers a unique blend of comfort, style, and Tahoe charm.
