About this property
Chalet-Style w/ Hot Tub + Theater Room + Pool Table | Mins to Lake | Timberline
Tucked into the pines above Carnelian Bay, Timberline is a moody, chalet-style retreat where soaring vaulted windows, modern architectural design, and a wraparound deck framed by trees set the tone from the driveway up. The home was built to make the most of its setting — natural light pours through the massive windows by day, and at night the deck opens up to dark skies, fresh mountain air, and the kind of quiet you only get on the North Shore.
Inside, the layout balances drama with comfort. Five chic bedrooms and six contemporary bathrooms give the home room to spread out, while three distinct living spaces keep groups happily separated when needed: a rec room with a pool table downstairs, a dedicated theater room with a projector screen and theater seating for movie nights, and an upstairs common area for slower mornings and après gatherings. Every level reads like a polished, design-forward take on the classic Tahoe cabin.
Step outside and the deck takes over. An outdoor dining table and seating area sit perched among the treetops, the hot tub bubbles year-round for stargazing soaks, and a firepit anchors the evening for long conversations under the Sierra sky. With the surrounding pines absorbing most of the noise, it's the kind of outdoor setup that quietly becomes the favorite room in the house.
The North Shore opens up just down the hill. Carnelian Bay's pebbled beaches and the lake's famously clear waters are a three-minute drive — Patton Beach, Carnelian West, and the Kings Beach shoreline are all within easy reach for paddleboarding, swimming, kayaking, and lakefront dinners. In winter, Northstar California is about ten minutes away with full-service ski access, and Palisades Tahoe sits a quick drive south for those chasing legendary terrain. Tahoe City and the historic mountain town of Truckee round out the area with shops, breweries, and farm-to-table dining. Whether you're chasing powder, lake days, or just a stretch of time off-grid, Timberline gives you a stylish home base with the best of Tahoe at the doorstep.

Visitors flock here especially to ski and snowboard on dramatic slopes that seem to fall into the abyss of the lake’s cobalt blue water. Whether you’re looking for a day in the mountains or a booze cruise on the lake, you can have it all in Tahoe.
