NEW RESIDENTIAL PROJECT OF THE YEAR: LAKESIDE GLENBOOK FAMILY RETREAT

The inspiration for this home is a generational story turned mountain marvel.

This family-oriented home was built as a mountain retreat for a family to gather directly on the shores they have been on for generations. With memories already imprinted into the shore this family needed a larger space for their ever-growing group of friends and family. The home is fluttered with special gathering nooks both inside and out – or they can relax in their custom lakeside spa. It boasts a large great room that flows off the kitchen and looks out to the north, east and west shores of Lake Tahoe. The stone veneer, siding and wood paneling give the home a feeling that it grew out of the shores into a mountain estate. The exquisite metal roof boasts sharp lines that are awaiting a heavy winter to give the home a true winter cabin feeling. Steps from the private pier, this home provides a dream lakefront getaway with all the amenities at the family’s fingertips.

This home is truly inspired by the site; the home seeks to blend the features of traditional mountain living with more contemporary artistic mediums such as concrete, steel, and glass. This custom-home building is on a steeply sloping lot overlooking the Lahanton Golf Club course, Martis Valley, and the Carson range. Including two stories, the primary living and master suites are located on the main level along with the garage, mud, laundry, office, and great room. Guest suites and additional entertainment areas are located on a lower, walk-out level, with access to a large terrace, firepit, and spa. The garage is connected to the main structure with a bridge element that allows site drainage to flow naturally, working to truly integrate the structure into the site.
