About This Home

As of November 2024

Authentically rare, this 1933 cabin enjoys a peaceful perch above Emerald Bay, the single most picturesque and iconic location on the shores of Lake Tahoe! The cabin has been completely refurbished to today's standards, without losing any of the historic charm, including the original stone fireplace that warms the now dramatic 2-story great room. Stripped down to the studs, the cabin had 2 cramped bedrooms removed from the rafters and replaced with vaulted ceilings, distressed open beams and all new tongue & groove pine. The entire perimeter has been refreshed with log-cabin siding and new shutters with metal frames, to ensure security through the winter months. Upgrades to the exterior also include a new banister around the nearly 700-sf redwood deck that delivers a premier vantage point to soak up this exceptional view. The interior is now completely covered in distressed, solid hickory floors and knotty pine paneling, providing warmth and rustic appeal. Completely modernized, the kitchen features new cabinetry, slab granite counters, quality appliances and open shelving. The bathroom was also tastefully upgraded with a new stall shower, vanity with ebony trough sink and fresh plumbing and lighting fixtures. Sleeping arrangements include a cozy bedroom or sleeping loft, both with original wood framed windows. The cabin now has a tankless water heater and new high-efficiency furnace, both located in the standup, unfinished basement area.
