Lake Home For Sale

Welcome to the Donner Lake Artist's Loft, the Pinterest-worthy A-Frame you've been dreaming of! Lovingly updated with a warm, craftsmen aesthetic, every nook and cranny in this cozy mountain retreat is simply adorable. This unique, yet classic cabin sits on a quiet dead-end street and backs to scenic Trestle Peak and the iconic Donner Lake Run--a mecca for backcountry ski lovers. Enjoy future access to the expanding Donner Lake Rim Trail, soon connecting to Schallenberger Ridge for even more alpine adventure. Step inside to find open-beamed ceilings, rustic whitewashed wide-plank floors, tongue-and-groove pine walls, strategically concealed lighting and a cozy new woodstove. The beautifully renovated chef's kitchen includes a 6-burner American range and artisan cabinetry made from a Sierraville barn. The gorgeous tile bath balances modern comfort with mountain charm featuring a custom vanity built from the reclaimed lumber of an old Donner Lake pier. The double-sized upstairs bedroom offers flexible space and could easily be converted back into two bedrooms. Outside, the sunny back deck is your private forest hideaway with a nearby seasonal creek--perfect for relaxing after a day of hiking, biking or paddling. And the front yard is a fully-irrigated pollinator's paradise, filled with mountain-friendly wildflowers and herbs. Just a short stroll (or trike bike ride!) to the Private Homeowners Beach on Donner Lake! Placer County STR permits are available, and the generous under-home storage has room for all your mountain toys. This is your chance to own a move-in-ready cabin with style, soul, and a front-row seat to adventure.
