Our first project in the Lake Tahoe area is a family-friendly home in the family-friendly community of Tahoe Donner in Truckee, just east of Donner Lake.

This 5BR/4.5BA plan features 3 master suites and 2 additional BRs, offering flexibility for hosting multiple families on vacation, or an extended working "staycation" amongst the fragrant Douglas fir and pine trees.

The lot was selected for its gradual upslope from the street and its south-facing orientation to the rear, offering great natural light to the primary living spaces. A large rear covered patio flows off the great room and is designed to let in winter sun and provide summer shade. A long S-shaped driveway is navigable without winter chains and offers ample guest parking. Careful building siting preserves as many existing trees as possible, enhancing the wooded feel and offering privacy from the surrounding homes and street.

A split level floor plan stacks 3BR/2BA over the garage, while offering 1.5x height in the primary living area.
