SANDBOX designed this 4,500 square foot mountain-modern home, built by Heslin Construction, for a large, gorgeous homesite along one of the Martis Camp fairways, with great views of the golf course pond, Mt. Rose and the slopes of Northstar Resort. Abundant glass and expansive terrace areas, complete with bouldered firepit and spa, ensure the owners enjoy frequent time outside and catch all the views! The home was completed in Summer of 2013. Photo of Rear Elevation by Vance Fox.
A distinctive stone-walled garden courtyard, complete with a wooden bridge spanning a meandering stream, greets the owners and their guests upon arrival. Native Granite and beautiful clear grade Western Red Cedar siding, punctuated with bold window glazing, create a striking result that is Tahoe-appropriate, yet mountain contemporary in feel.
The Great Room (above) is dramatic upon entry, with its high vaulted ceiling, large stone fireplace and the view through to the golf course and mountains in the distance. Photo by Vance Fox.
Inside the home, the finishes are cleaner in application to lend the ‘mountain modern’ vibe, yet still consist of ample woods for a warm mountain fee. Photo of Kitchen (above) by Vance Fox, with its large window looking out to the stream & garden court.
The Dining Room shares the large double-sided stone fireplace with the Great Room on the other side, creating a cozy atmosphere for a dinner party. Ten foot tall folding glass doors bring in natural light and views, and spill out onto the covered Dining Terrace and uncovered Fireside Terrace beyond. Photo of Dining Room (above) by Vance Fox.
All of the bedrooms are spacious, with vaulted ceilings, room for sitting areas and either deck or terrace access. Photo showing one of the master bedrooms (above) by Vance Fox.
