616 Tata Lane South Lake Tahoe CA 96150 MLS #141563

This one-of-a-kind property offers a rare opportunity to own a classic cabin on a sprawling 0.91-acre lot – four lots wide – in the highly regarded Gardner Mountain neighborhood. Just 200 feet from the National Forest, you’ll have immediate access to hiking and biking trails that lead to Fallen Leaf Lake and the stunning South Shore coastline, home to some of Tahoe’s best beaches. Despite the peaceful forested setting, you’re just minutes from the conveniences along the Emerald Bay corridor and the revitalized Y area. A long, winding driveway leads you through a fully fenced yard to a picture-perfect cabin that feels lifted from the pages of a storybook. Cedar siding, wood-clad windows, a steep roofline, redwood deck, and stone patio all enhance its timeless charm. The property includes three outbuildings – a detached garage, workshop, and storage – plus open space ideal for gardens or a small nursery. Inside, you’ll find vaulted ceilings with exposed trusses, pine paneling, solid oak floors, and a cozy wood-burning stove. The kitchen adds to the appeal with red cabinetry, matching tile, a gas range, and a garden window. The spacious main-level bedroom features exposed beams and generous storage, while a charming wooden staircase ascends to the cozy sleeping loft. A full bath rounds out the well-appointed floor plan. Level topography and a substantial parcel suggest high land capability and an abundance of coverage to offer exciting expansion potential – build a larger main home, multiple ADUs, a massive toy garage, or simply enjoy the space and privacy this unique property provides.
