Description
This classic 1975 David Tucker-designed and Sven Brolund-built cabin offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Alpine Meadows’ charm. Overlooking the breathtaking valley and surrounding mountains, the cabin features wrap-around windows that bring the beauty of the outdoors inside. At the heart of the living room, a striking granite fireplace evokes a sense of nostalgia and warmth. The original owners thoughtfully acquired 80% of the adjacent lot to preserve the serene, mountainous setting, with a deed restriction in place to prevent future development. Situated on nearly three-quarters of an acre, this property presents a unique chance to restore a classic cabin in the sought-after Alpine Meadows ski resort community. Whether you’re seeking a weekend retreat or an investment opportunity, this fixer-upper holds excellent potential.
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. This description is from February 26, 2026

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy kids love their school! We feel so lucky to be a part of this community. The teachers, support staff, and principal are so kind and welcoming. They have started a new health & wellness center/program that seems to fill the need for support and counseling that that can sometimes be hard to find in public schools. My kids have all kinds of positive stories about the things they learn and the friends they have made. It is reassuring to see a lot of parent involvement as well, which makes the community feel even closer. As a former teacher who spent several years in different school environments, I get the sense that the faculty and staff work well together and this adds to the positive vibes you feel when you enter the school.Parent Review1y ago
