Carnelian Bay, California 96140

On lovely Carnelian Bay at Flick Point, this one-of-a-kind North Shore Tahoe property is luxury and Alpine elegance in equal measure. Originally constructed with inspiration from Yosemite's Ahwahnee Hotel, the level of craftsmanship, attention to detail and fine materials are a timeless statement for this unique property. Many who know the house are quick to comment, "It's my favorite on the lake." Enter the 1.3 acre property through gates that take you along a gently meandering driveway where you arrive at a charming one-bedroom guest house built over a two-car garage, with additional parking alongside. A short stone path leads to the main house's stately front door and directly into the spacious living and entertaining area with soaring hand-hewn beamed ceilings where grand views of the lake greet you. On one end you'll find an imposing stone fireplace built with granite boulders and on the other, the dining area and kitchen, with lake views extending all along these rooms. Hewn pine floors run throughout the house. The home's primary suite features a wood-burning fireplace, luxurious bathroom, walk-in closet and access to a lakeview deck and outdoor hot tub. You'll find two additional bedrooms with en suite baths on this main floor as well as a laundry room. On the second level is a sitting room with built-in office space, bedroom with en suite bath (and expansive lake view) and bunk room (and en suite bath) with built-in beds and storage. All bedrooms and bathrooms are thoughtfully decorated with handcrafted hardware, imported tile, and ample skylights and windows to maximize the abundant natural light the home enjoys. Designed for entertaining, the generous lakefront deck has a built-in gas grill, outdoor fire pit, grassy play area and steps down to a private pier with boat lift and two buoys (one unpermitted). The fully-irrigated property is naturally landscaped with trees, shrubs, native plantings, and the Alpine strawberries that flourish every summer.
