Forest Grove<br /><br /><b>The space</b><br />Peacefully situated among fragrant evergreens, this light-filled home provides the perfect North Lake Tahoe setting. You'll be a five-block stroll from beautiful Kings Beach in summer and a quick drive from the winter ski slopes of Northstar California Resort (six miles). Best of all, you'll be greeted back at home each day by generous living spaces, a large deck, and a yard out back.<br /><br />This two-story home is located in a wooded neighborhood of Kings Beach, an epicenter of outdoor activity in every season. Stroll to Secline Beach or Kings Beach itself (less than half a mile) to soak up the sun or get out on the water. Tee off or cross country ski at the Old Brockway Golf Course (half a mile), or go explore the trail system at North Tahoe Regional Park (two miles). Drive yourself to Northstar or Palisades, or use the free park and ride in Kings Beach. <br /><br />No matter how you spend your days, you'll find that this house is perfect for both relaxing and entertaining. Shed your outdoor gear by the door and make yourself at home in an open and social layout. There are two living rooms - a sunny great room on the main upper level and a second living room downstairs (with its own kitchenette). Upstairs, enjoy high ceilings, plentiful windows framing the forest, and contemporary furnishings throughout. Prepare meals together in a stylish kitchen with marble countertops and stainless steel appliances, and sit down to eat at the dining table and island breakfast bar.<br /><br />Spend summer afternoons sipping cold drinks on the deck or playing with your kids in the yard (please note that the yard is not enclosed). On winter evenings, warm up by the electric fireplace, stream movies (using your own accounts) on the 70-inch smart TV, or catch up on email with high-speed WiFi at the desk workspace. At night, three bedrooms are upstairs - including a primary suite with its own bathroom - and one more is downstairs. Bonus features of the house include two washer/dryers and ceiling fans throughout (although, like most homes in the area, there is no AC).<br /><br />Placer County has set quiet hours for 9:00 PM we have no control over this, it is set by County Code Enforcement and strictly enforced.
