Welcome to a wonderful beachfront home with breathtaking views and direct access to the shores of Lake Tahoe, located in the private neighborhood of Marla Bay in Zephyr Cove, Nevada. Homes don't get closer than this to the beach! Enjoy the pure tranquility with up to 75 feet of your own beach frontage during a low-level lake season. Projecting the nostalgia of a classic cabin home from childhood or something from the movies, this is the perfect home for a year-round vacation. The beautiful wood walls and beams enhance the main level; large living room windows allow you to enjoy the sunrise and sunset over the Sierra Mountains and Lake Tahoe’s west shoreline. Use the large grass lawn for outdoor activities in the summer months or epic snowball fights in the winter months. Walk in the door to a spacious and open beam living room and dining room space. The dining room table seats 10 people and is perfect for large dinners and makes for a great game table. Relax on the large deck that overlooks Lake Tahoe. The deck has a dining set and Adirondack chairs to soak up the Tahoe air. Stairs lead from the deck to a terrace with patio table, umbrella and chairs, the lawn, and the beach. The deck also offers direct access to the king-size bedroom with shower bathroom. The well-appointed kitchen has plenty of counter space for multiple people to prepare meals. It leads to the laundry room, a shower bathroom, and a queen bedroom with access to the front stone patio. The main level also includes a small family room with a 47-inch flat screen television and sleeper sofa. Upstairs you’ll find a lakefront queen bedroom and another bedroom with two queen beds. Between the two rooms is a full bathroom with tub. During the summer months, there is an additional queen bedroom with a bathroom accessed by outdoor stairs to the left of the front door. In addition to postcard views of Lake Tahoe, amenities include snow removal (parking area and entrance sidewalk), laundry room with full capacity washer and dryer, a quiet desk space for working, and a strong WIFI connection, which is especially great for those having to work during their getaway. You can’t beat the location of this shoreline home with privacy and direct lake access year-round, a seven-minute drive to downtown casinos, nightlife, shopping, and Heavenly Village, and a short drive to Heavenly Ski Resort in Nevada and California.
