Rugged yet sophisticated

Bringing nature into our homes is one of the best things about living in the West. The Sunset Lake Tahoe Idea House―located in a scenic, meadow-oriented setting in Truckee, California―is full of earthy materials and textures, colors inspired by the ever-changing landscape, natural light from every possible angle, and walls and windows that blend with the outdoors.

An open floor plan in the central part of the house is perfect for entertaining large groups of friends or relaxing with family. Private retreats for parents, kids, and guests provide serene places to recharge.
