Ryan Group Architects has designed this extraordinary mountain contemporary house nestled on 3.9 acres in the heart of Martis Camp, Truckee, California. This legacy property offers mountain architecture, family connection, and timeless design. With six bedrooms, six bathrooms, and two half baths, the dwelling was crafted as a sanctuary for generations, with every corner reflecting intention, warmth, and the serenity of the High Sierra.
From the moment you arrive via the private circular drive, past cascading waterfalls, and into a grand courtyard flanked by dual garages, you feel the estate’s singular presence. The main home unfolds across expansive indoor-outdoor spaces, where the sunlit great room, a towering beamed ceiling, and walls of glass reveal breathtaking views of the forest, Lookout Mountain, and the 17th fairway of the Tom Fazio golf course.

Fronting the practice field and backing to the fairway, with the Camp Lodge a short walk away, the home offers a front-row seat to the very best of Martis Camp. The crescent-shaped back patio, with its water feature, stone pathways, and vibrant landscape, frames every gathering in natural beauty.
Anchoring the patio are a large hot tub, circular firepit, and a trail leading to a private guest house complete with its own living room, kitchen, fireplace, and bedroom suite.
