SANDBOX designed one of the first homes to be built in the new East West luxury golf community of Old Greenwood in Truckee, California. Designed in the California Alpine style using an indigenous palette of materials, this two-story $2.8M residence sits on the fairway of the Jack Nicklaus signature course and boasts 3,800 livable square feet, 4 bedrooms, 4.5 baths, plus an oversized two-car detached garage, with a guest/caretaker’s unit above and even parking for a private golf cart!

With many windows throughout the house, decks from the upper level bedrooms, and meandering stone patios on the lower level, future residents will have ample opportunity to take in views of fairway play and the mountains beyond. The summer dining, main and master patio areas meander between large boulders, wildflowers and sage, and feature a firepit and sunken spa.

Designed as a family retreat, the floor plan is spacious and open to encourage social interaction. There are several fireplaces throughout the home to create a cozy feeling on a snowy Winter’s day. From the Dining Area (above), family members can sit by the fire and interact with those prepping for dinner in the Kitchen.
The finishes are warm and rustic throughout, with abundant heavy timber framing creating the feel of a mountain lodge. The bathrooms are typically more refined, with warm travertines and timber accents, as well as the comforts of spa tubs and steam showers.
