About This Home
Set in one of Tahoe City’s most loved neighborhoods, this home on Observation Drive checks all the right boxes—views of the lake, great sun, and a layout that just works. Located in Dollar Point, you're close to it all: the private beach, swimming pool, tennis courts, pier, and buoys—not to mention the simple joy of an evening stroll with lake breezes in the air. The upper level is open and inviting, with vaulted ceilings, loads of natural light, and a big deck made for outdoor meals and long summer evenings. You’ll find two bedrooms and a full bath on each floor—easy for guests and easy to spread out. Downstairs, there’s a large rec room that’s just asking for game nights, movie marathons, or a quiet retreat after a day on the lake. It's a great setup for multiple generations or hosting with a little space and privacy. The home has a newer roof, updated flooring, a generous laundry/utility room and storage closet, and a separate shed for all your Tahoe toys. A well-loved home in a truly special spot—ready for its next chapter.
