This impressive mountain modern dream home was designed by Ward-Young Architects and is nestled in the Sierra Nevada mountains of Northern California. This sprawling five-bedroom, five-bathroom, and two-half-bath Martis Camp home is positioned on an elevated site, boasting views of the 13th hole of Tom Fazioโ€™s Championship Golf Course, along with a view of the 14th hole and the Carson Range beyond. Step inside this two-story dwelling to find an open-flowing floor plan with soaring ceilings and immense windows that capture light and views from all directions.

Beyond the great room’s dual-sided fireplace, you will find a gorgeous, glass-enclosed wine vault that holds up to 1,200 bottles. This remarkable piece of art is positioned adjacent to the full bar, a game room with a large TV wall, and a ping pong table. It offers easy access to a back patio featuring a hot tub, two firepits, a barbecue area, and covered and heated dining, all with sweeping golf course views. Adding to the home’s impressive features is a garage bay converted into a driving range simulator complete with gallery seating.
