Sandbox Studio together with Heslin Construction designed this rustic retreat overlooking a breathtaking lake in Lahontan, a gated community just south of historic downtown Truckee, California. This home-away-from-home boasts fabulous design details and amenities. Created as a family escape, this dwelling was created to maximize views of its tranquil waterside setting.
The homeowners can enjoy viewing the wildlife that frequently visits the lake while sitting comfortably around their built-in fire pit or soaking in their sunken spa from the open terrace. Just about every room this this spacious 4,800 square foot, four bed, four-and-a-half bath dwelling boasts a view of the lake.

Step inside this home to find three inviting fireplaces, which can be found in the living room, den, and owner’s bedroom suite, each boasting a unique surround. In the living room, the exquisite limestone rock fireplace was sourced from the owner’s home state of Arizona, a nod to their connection. All of the finishes in this rustic retreat have been carefully curated to build character and beautifully complement one another.
