516 Emerald Bay Road 304 South Lake Tahoe CA 96150 | MLS #143460

Completely reimagined ground-floor studio in the picturesque St. Francis of the Woods complex, set along the edge of National Forest on the Highway 89 corridor toward Camp Richardson. With no stairs, covered carport parking and direct access to surrounding forest and nearby bike paths, this is an exceptionally easy Tahoe getaway. Taken down to the studs and completely rebuilt, this is arguably one of the most extensively renovated units in the complex. Improvements include updated windows, drywall, LVP flooring, lighting, plumbing fixtures, interior doors, trim and a striking retro-modern freestanding gas fireplace. The renovated kitchen features painted Shaker-style solid wood cabinetry, solid-slab quartz counters, stainless appliances and bar seating, while the remodeled bath offers a tub/shower combination. A built-in Murphy bed allows the main living area to function comfortably by day and convert easily for sleeping. The location is hard to beat for a compact South Shore basecamp. Ride or walk toward Camp Richardson, Pope Beach and Fallen Leaf Lake, head directly into the forest, or reach Heavenly and Sierra-at-Tahoe with ease. Restaurants, bike rentals and everyday conveniences are nearby, while the complex adds a gated outdoor pool for summer use.
