Designed by renowned architect Jack Hawkins and featured in Dwell Magazine, this award-winning Martis Camp residence is a study in scale, privacy, and architectural intent. Recipient of the Tahoe Quarterly “Best of Tahoe” Award, the home is quietly positioned on one of the community’s largest parcels—an extraordinary 2.7-acre setting bordering conservancy land.
Conceived as a modern interpretation of mountain living, the architecture steps naturally with the terrain, revealing more than 8,700 square feet of living space and 2,800 square feet of garage and additional storage, while maintaining a remarkable sense of discretion. Expansive yet grounded, the home unfolds as a series of interconnected experiences—each designed to engage with light, landscape, and livability.
At its center, the great room anchors daily life beneath soaring ceilings and walls of glass. A chef’s kitchen outfitted with Gaggenau appliances, walnut cabinetry, a dining nook, and a butler’s pantry flows effortlessly into gathering spaces, all overlooked by a lofted office with a private deck oriented toward Northstar. A separate wing offers four guest or family bedrooms, complemented by a dedicated media and game lounge designed for both retreat and connection.
The primary suite is intentionally secluded—a quiet, immersive space where forest views frame a spa-like bath with a freestanding soaking tub, glass-enclosed shower, and terrazzo floors of crushed marble and tumbled sea glass.
A standout 2023 addition introduces a nearly 1,000-square-foot multi-level dressing suite—conceived as a private boutique. With steel framing, glass and wood floors, and finely integrated storage, the space offers rare flexibility as a dressing gallery, executive office, wine cellar, or golf simulator. Discreetly embedded into the landscape, it is both unexpected and unforgettable.
Materiality throughout is deliberate and restrained: wood, concrete, steel, and seamless anigre cabinetry create a warm modern palette, softened by natural light and uninterrupted connections to the surrounding forest.
Outdoor living unfolds across multiple decks designed for privacy and year-round enjoyment, strengthening the home’s connection to its natural surroundings. A detached guesthouse adds flexibility for hosting, while the four-car garage is thoughtfully set to the rear—an intentional architectural decision to keep the streetscape clean and visually unobtrusive. At the front of the property, a grand circular driveway leads to a covered approach and additional carport parking, preserving a refined, understated arrival experience.
Recognized with multiple national and international design awards, this residence represents a rare opportunity to own one of Martis Camp’s most architecturally significant homes—within a gated enclave Forbes has described as “possibly the best four-season private community in the U.S.”
