The Home
This luxury Schaffer's Mill home makes a statement from the moment you arrive, with ample parking for four vehicles, including one in the attached garage that also provides generous storage for all your outdoor adventure gear. Inside, a practical mud room keeps shoes and bags organized, flowing into a well-appointed laundry room equipped with full-size washer and dryer. The heart of the home is a stunning state-of-the-art kitchen featuring commercial-grade Viking appliances, designed for serious cooking and easy entertaining. The open-concept space connects seamlessly to a dining area that seats eight and a grand great room anchored by a dramatic stone fireplace and a wall of windows with a flat-screen TV, creating a bright, inviting space for gatherings. Double doors in the great room open to a patio that becomes your outdoor living paradise, with a newly updated dining table, lounge furniture around a gas firepit, and a large hot tub that comfortably seats eight, perfect for sunset soaks and starlit conversation.

Retreat to the primary suite on the main level, where you’ll find a cozy fireplace and a large flat-screen TV, complemented by an en-suite bathroom that offers a soaking tub, a walk-in shower, and a double vanity for a spa-like experience. Up the stairs, two private en-suite guest bedrooms each feature a queen bed, providing quiet, comfortable accommodations for guests. At the end of the hall, a substantial bunk room awaits—an ideal haven for kids and families—with two full-over-full bunks and pull-out twin trundles, plus a foosball table, a huge sectional sofa, and a 65" TV to keep everyone entertained. A private bathroom off the bunk room adds a semi-suite feel, ensuring living space remains flexible and convenient.

Nestled in the gated resort community of Shaffer’s Mill in Truckee, this property offers the best of mountain luxury with access to on-site dining at The Sawyer, a private golf course, and an extensive trail system that connects you to Truckee’s town streets and the Martis Valley leading to Northstar. The home features dual heating systems for upstairs and downstairs, plus air-conditioning for year-round comfort. It’s a true gem for multi-family vacations, boasting seamless indoor-outdoor living and a dedicated upstairs area perfect for kids to gather, making it ideal for gatherings, relaxation, and memorable getaways.

PLEASE NOTE: To ensure everyone has a comfortable stay, we host a maximum of 12 adults. While we love our bunk room, please keep in mind it’s a cozy space meant for a smaller group, rather than a full 10-person capacity.
