A Tranquil Mountain Cabin with Convenience and Character. Discover this hidden gem-a beautifully remodeled cabin nestled among towering Cedars and Firs in the heart of Blue Canyon, a historic community rich with charm and legacy. Originally built in 1916, this cabin has been thoughtfully expanded and updated, now offering 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and two spacious living areas across a generous, light-filled layout. The interior is tastefully finished with pine accents, luxury vinyl plank flooring, and classic subway tile, creating a warm, modern-rustic ambiance. The fully-equipped kitchen features ample counter space, quality appliances, and a large farmhouse table-perfect for hosting family and friends. The main living room centers around a thermostat-controlled pellet stove, offering efficient, cozy heat through the colder months. Upstairs, the expansive loft room is bathed in natural light from large windows and offers flexible space for a home office, lounge, or additional sleeping quarters. Step out onto the upstairs deck to feel immersed in the treetops, or enjoy peaceful canyon views and babbling creek, from the covered lower deck - ideal for morning coffee or sunset relaxation. Set just below the snow line, this property provides easy year-round access, located just 2 miles from I-80, 15 minutes to Donner Summit and 30 minutes to Truckee, placing you at the doorstep of all-season mountain adventures. Blue Canyon, a peaceful community, is steeped in history - from its roots in lumber and mining to its place in rail travel and Prohibition-era bootlegging. Whether you're looking for a full-time residence, weekend escape, or investment opportunity, this cabin offers the perfect blend of serenity, character, and convenience.
