Description

Tucked away on the quiet cul-de-sac end of Basque within the heart of Northstar, 265 Basque presents a welcoming mountain retreat designed for comfort, light, and year-round enjoyment. Spanning 1,600 square feet, the home offers three well-appointed bedrooms, including a convenient main-level bedroom and two spacious upstairs suites—each with its own en-suite bath for privacy and ease. The living spaces are filled with natural light, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere throughout the home. A generous front deck provides the perfect setting for morning coffee, après-ski gatherings, or simply taking in the peaceful alpine surroundings. Thoughtful features such as heated bathroom floors, Toto toilets, and a deep jetted soaking tub add an extra layer of comfort and quality. Practicality meets mountain living with a flat driveway attached, with multiple parking spaces plus a one-car attached garage—rare and appreciated features during the winter months. From this quiet setting, residents also enjoy convenient year-round access to the Northstar shuttle, offering effortless transportation to the ski mountain, The Village at Northstar, and the amenities of the NPOA Recreation Center, not to mention miles of hiking and biking on the Tompkins Memorial Trail. The result is a home that balances tranquility with easy access to everything that makes Northstar a beloved four-season destination.

    "Truckee is a great place to have a dog or multiple dogs. There are national parks and open spaces where dogs can run off leash safely without the danger of cars. If you don’t have a tracker or if your dog doesn’t return on command then you might want to think about keeping them on a leash. There is a lot of wild life to make your dog run off and get lost. "
