This modern mountain family getaway home was designed by SANDBOX Studio and Mark Tanner Construction, located in Martis Camp, an exclusive North Lake Tahoe, California community. The scope of this unique project entails the construction of a main house that would seamlessly fit with a pre-existing guest house already on the property. 

Not only did the project team connect the new structure to the older one through a shared hallway, but the aesthetics were also perfectly matched. The guest house had some wonderful attributes such as oak casework, wood ceilings, and a wonderful modern/contemporary touch, which carried to the new home making it all flow effortlessly.

Elsewhere, expansive patio space both covered and exposed allows for year-round enjoyment and further creates a family compound environment. The result was a beautiful, comfortable home with plenty of entertaining space for family and friends.

What We Love: This Lake Tahoe getaway home provides a welcoming respite for a family to relax, surrounded by the beauty of a rugged mountain terrain. We love the great room design in this home, with its floor-to-ceiling fireplace, comfortable furnishings, and warmth of wood on the ceilings and floors. The nature-inspired kitchen is perfect for entertaining with a window facing the woods, who wouldn’t be inspired to cook?
