Tucked beside a protected conservancy lot in the heart of Tahoe Vista, this mountain home combines privacy, light, and an unbeatable North Shore location. Soaring vaulted ceilings and cathedral windows fill the spacious living area with natural light, anchored by a dramatic floor-to-ceiling rock fireplace, one of two fireplaces in the home. The open kitchen flows seamlessly into the main living space, ideal for gathering after a day on the mountain or at the lake. With 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, a 2-car garage, and a loft currently set up as a sleeping area, the home is thoughtfully configured to maximize bed space -- and easy to make your own. A consistent performer as a short-term rental, it works equally well as a full-time residence, mountain getaway, or income property -- and its Placer County location means a more streamlined short-term rental permit and application process than neighboring jurisdictions. Outside, unwind in the covered hot tub area, and let the heated driveway take the work out of winter. All of this minutes to beach access, close to trails, and a short drive to Northstar. Offered mostly furnished -- move-in or rental-ready from day one. Home is currently rented Friday through Sunday through Labor Day weekend -- contact the listing agent or coordinate through your buyer's agent to schedule showings.
