luxury apartments / penthouses with terrace for sale Truckee, United States

Open house Saturday August 8th 2:00-5:00. Perched above Donner Lake, this beautifully maintained, turnkey condominium offers the perfect combination of mountain charm, panoramic lake views, and year-round recreation. Featuring 2 bedrooms, 2½ bathrooms, a sleeping loft, and a detached one-car garage, this multi-level townhome is ideal as a full-time residence or four-season getaway. Thoughtfully positioned in the front of the complex to take advantage of panoramic lake views of Donner Lake and the Sierra Nevada mountains from almost every room, but set far enough back to avoid road noise. The home was professionally remodeled in 2014 including new custom cabinetry, countertops and lighting. The bright main level features an open living room, dining area, kitchen and a half bath. Unique to this unit is the hand crafted ladder up into the loft area which can be used as an office or overflow sleeping area. It's also possible to lock off the loft with the 9' tall custom crafted barn door. Expansive windows fill the home with natural light, while the spacious deck provides the perfect setting for morning coffee, evening entertaining, or watching Donner Lake's spectacular Fourth of July fireworks. Downstairs you will find two comfortable bedrooms including a private ensuite with a heated floor and a gas fireplace. The second bedroom is on this level with it's own bathroom. Also on this level is a dedicated laundry room. The entry room floor also has a heated tile floor making it even cozier in the winter and melting snow off your winter boots. Another great feature of this property is the location of the garage. It's also directly across the street from the public boat ramp making it easy to wheel over a kayak or other water toys and hop onto the lake. Owners enjoy exclusive access to Donner Pines West's private gated beach complete with a sandy shoreline, lakefront gazebo, floating dock, kayak and paddle board racks, and additional storage for beach gear. The HOA beach is absolutely lovely and rarely used. Directly across the street from the condo is the public boat launching ramp and a great place to jump into the lake. Located just 10 minutes from both downtown Truckee and Donner Summit, with Sugar Bowl, Donner Ski Ranch, Boreal, and Royal Gorge all nearby, this home places endless outdoor recreation right at your doorstep. Easy access to I-80 makes travel convenient, and with short-term rentals prohibited, the community offers a quiet, relaxing environment to enjoy all four seasons.

Perched atop a pristine 20-acre parcel in the coveted Juniper Hills enclave, this exceptional mountain estate offers one of the most commanding panoramas in the Truckee-Tahoe region. Sweeping views stretch across the Sierra Crest-from the ski runs of Northstar to Palisades Tahoe, Sugar Bowl, Castle Peak, and the shimmering expanse of Lake Ella below-creating a dramatic backdrop in every season. Custom-built in 2010 as a full-time family residence, this turnkey home embodies timeless craftsmanship and refined mountain elegance. The nearly 4,000-square-foot, single-story interior is defined by soaring articulated beams and thoughtfully designed spaces that invite both grand entertaining and intimate everyday living. From the elegant covered front porch, the sense of arrival begins at the iron-clad doors, opening into a granite airlock that quietly hints at the experience ahead. Straight through the room, the Sierra Crest comes into view, drawing the eye outward before the room itself commands attention. The gaze naturally rises along the granite-and-cast-iron fireplace to the expansive beamwork above, where the ceiling lifts dramatically overhead. Across the room, a granite bar and welcoming seating area complete the composition, creating a warm and memorable gathering space for family and guests. Anchoring the main living area, the chef's kitchen features a Thermador range crowned by a striking pounded copper-clad hood, generous island seating, and seamless flow into the formal dining area, where a gas log fireplace and tranquil interior waterfall enhance the ambiance. Time for entertaining? This professional-style bar adds a layer of sophistication, perfectly suited for hosting memorable gatherings. Outdoor living is equally compelling, with the expansive flagstone patio, wired with speakers, and positioned to capture the ever-changing alpine light and wondrous sunset views. Three beautifully appointed ensuite bedrooms provide private retreats, each enjoying forested surroundings and lake vistas. The primary suite is a sanctuary unto itself, complete with expansive walk-through his-and-hers dressing rooms and closets, thoughtfully connected to the well-appointed laundry area. Hydronic in-floor heating throughout the home, beneath warming wool carpets, is zoned with separate thermostats to ensure personalized comfort in every room. Two dedicated home-office spaces support today's lifestyle: one conveniently located off the garage, which would make a great artist or manufacturing studio space, and another within the main living area, boasting views so captivating it could easily serve as an additional bedroom. This high-end office also features built-in files, several workspace desktops, and energizing natural light. Two rooms enjoy access to a charming balcony, further connecting the home to its natural setting. Automobile enthusiasts will love the 7 garage spaces. Room for outdoor toys, such as snowmobiles, motor bikes, or even small boats, can be easily parked using the drive-through garage on the main level, or in an additional lower-level garage. Enclosed above the garage is an undeveloped bonus space currently used for storage, and easily offering outstanding potential for a future game room, media lounge, or creative retreat. Recent improvements include a new boiler for the hydronic in-floor heating system and a new upgraded well pump, along with professionally repaired and resealed driveway surfaces and BMP upgrades. A solar hot water system is available too. Defensible space work was completed in 2024, underscoring the home's thoughtful stewardship and readiness. Move-in ready, private, serene, and uncompromising in quality, this remarkable estate offers more than just a nice home in the mountains. It is a rare opportunity to own a legacy property with extraordinary views, refined amenities, access to miles of open space, outdoor adventures, and endless potential in one of Truckee's most desirable settings.
