Description

Rarely available riverfront home in historic downtown Truckee. The house is literally perched safely on the bank just above the river, well above the 100-year FEMA flood line, and is a 5 minute walk to all of historic downtown Truckee's shops, cafes, and restaurants. Craftsman style interior, hardwood floors, with original architectural features but updated kitchen and bathrooms. Finished 470 Sq Ft un-permitted basement with two bedrooms, a full bath, kitchenette, and a small bonus room, plus an additional 391 Sq Ft unfinished basement with concrete slab floor that is dry, spacious, and used for storage. Total useable indoor space is 2,226 Sq Ft. There’s also a 175 Sq Ft one car garage and off street 40'x14' rv parking (enough for 3 addl. cars).

Beautiful fully irrigated yard with lawn, wildflowers, sweet peas and roses. Stone pathway leading to the river with grass, fire pit, and rock patio sitting area. Hanging two-person outdoor swinging bench, two river-view decks, one with attached hot tub. Historic style 2 level potting shed for yard tools and kid's clubhouse.

This unique house is ideal for a family home or ski/lake get-away house. Imagine yourself sipping tea, reading, watching the river flow, or telecommuting with high-speed WiFi in front of the three floor-to-ceiling picture windows. Located on a dead-end street, 45 feet from the Truckee river, 350 yards from the nearest bakery/coffee shop, and a quick drive to Northstar, Palisades, Lake Tahoe.

I would consider some amount of seller carry with the right buyer at a better interest rate than the prevailing jumbo rates. I'll also be completely honest about what I know, optimal maintenance schedule, service providers to call, improvements I've considered.

This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Trulia. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources.
