About This Home

Set along a private stretch of the scenic Carson River, this remarkable 76± acre equestrian and lifestyle estate is a rare offering in the Sierra. Just south of Nevada's Carson Valley near Markleeville, CA, the property combines unmatched craftsmanship with true legacy appeal. One of the few riverfront ranches with its own 120-foot private bridge, it offers rare accessibility and exclusivity. Reno-Tahoe International Airport is only an hour away, Lake Tahoe and world-class ski resorts just 30 minutes, and San Francisco within three hours. The centerpiece of the estate is a finely built 8,700+ sq.ft. ranch home featuring 7 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms, thoughtfully designed with a suite of HVAC systems for maximum comfort and energy efficiency. Highlights include two full kitchens (one on each level), a 12-seat movie theatre, and an elevator serving both floors. Expansive windows and a 4,300 sq.ft. deck showcase lush lawns and tranquil river views.
Additional improvements include an attached 1,900 sq.ft. guest house, and 1,600 sq.ft. garage and workshop with 5-car capacity and a 7,000 lb. auto lift. Dual electric entry gates with keypad access ensure both security and privacy. Many of the high-quality furnishings may be available in the sale. Designed for the horse enthusiast, the property features a 4,200 sq.ft. indoor arena (40' x 105') with wash bay, 16-ft doors, four stalls, and tack room. This versatile space also lends itself to alternate uses such as private events, auto collections, or specialty storage. Outdoors, the ranch offers a 100' x 200' riding arena, five fenced pastures, and four horse shelters. The manicured grounds include 34,000 sq.ft. of irrigated lawn serviced by a dedicated pump house. An agricultural well with a 5-hp pump produces approximately 100± gpm. Mature trees, rolling pastures, and river frontage create a setting that is as functional as it is breathtaking. With over 18,000 sq.ft. under roof, this is a compound of rare quality and scale. Every element reflects the artisanship and pride of ownership invested into its creation. The layout, design, and amenities set this property apart as one of the finest private riverfront ranch estates in the Sierra.
For the discerning buyer who values exclusivity, lifestyle, and legacy, this Exceptional Riverfront Ranch Estate is a must see.
